Are you kidding about those signs?

Last week’s Star, front page, “Council: property owner must remove signs” Are you kidding me, Grand Coulee Council? City Code, Chapter 17.60 says that only one sign is allowed on that lot? That lot, which happens to be well kept, eye-appealing, and will be used to further the greater Grand Coulee area, is breaking some kind of code?

What about concerns about filthy properties that are for sure breaking code? Why is every excuse in the book used why nothing can be done about them? An array of junk vehicles, never to be used again or in most cases can’t ever be used again, garbage strewn all over the property, weeds growing over the entire lot (well over the  12” rule), the smell of dog feces, and the conditions that the animals have to live in. No ordinances being broken there? I need to understand why one is not allowed, while so many others are? I guess Grand Coulee wants the whole town to look like what I have been forced to live with for so many years!

Sam  Hsieh, I’m as bewildered as you are, good luck!
