You just can't have anything nice

mural
The City is playing Grinch these days. They were fining the High Gear bicycle shop on Main Highway for this mural, which is actually on the former Grove Central pizza place. I had wondered why it was never finished, I guess that is why.

The sign on the door (of the pizza shop, not the bicycle store) said that they have until December 29 to pay the permit fee or be fined $200 a day. The funny part is that Grove Central is closed, yet they are fining them for the bicycle shop mural which is next door, only the mural was on the Grove Central building and not on the bicycle shop building. It's a mess, which does not need to be. It's a small simple mural that brightens up the area. I know the City is broke and needs every penny, but this is crazy. I think the problem is the name on the mural. It constitutes advertising when there is a company name.
