Suppose it will work?


No!

The lawnlady, unlike you, didn't trot down to a government agency (DMV in your case) and volunteer into a state regulated enterprise (driver license in your case). Therefore you, unlike the lawnlady, are bound by the terms of the quasi-contract commonly known as Title 41 - Motor Vehicle Code.


Didn't the lawnlady agree to quasi-zoning/building codes when she purchased a house and received an occupancy permit? Isn't the lawnlady bound by that quasi-contract?

I think it's very manly Mr Keeper, how you always talk about quasi stuff.

Cops should have better things to do than be prowling around for brown lawns or hiding behind some sign early Sunday morning waiting for some poor schmuck who is going 8 miles an hour over the speed limit.

Pat, what if one neighbor, or one church member, or one boy scout, or even one girl scout, just one person, lent a helping hand I maybe idealistic but I believe that one person could have made a difference.

Before, the LAW of Orem came crushing down on Mrs. Perry as if she was a child molesting, meth dealer, b.o.m. burning, mass murderer, mother of Chuck Manson. Errrrrrrr I mean non-lawn watering, zone violating citizen.

Thank you for writing the letter. I, too, am fed up with hearing about the case. If the officer crossed the line with his actions, then punish him, but she still deserves to get a ticket for having such a filthy, trashy yard. If she wants to live like that she should move out of the city where no neighbors will be negatively affected by it. Either that or she just needs to move into a place where there is no lawn, or the all lawn maintanance is taken care of by an independent company.

I agree. Thank you for stating the obvious.
