Roll Out The Red Carpet.
Steve and Mildred Nadwairski can no longer sweep the
carpet over their lawn problem.
A judge has ordered the retired couple to remove the multicolored carpet
swatches from their sloped front yard, saying they are a nuisance.
The couple decided to carpet their lawn a few years back after grass seed
never took, landscape logs couldn't solve the problem and $250 seemed too
much for sod.
"I don't know that it's written anywhere that you can't have carpet on
your front lawn," Steve Nadwairski said.
Pasco County has ordinances prohibiting the collection of "public nuisance
items," such as junk cars and appliances. Old carpet also classifies, said
the assistant county attorney.
The neighbors were pleased by the ruling and the Nadwairskis said they
would comply.
Now, has anybody got some spare Astroturf?
