This is what my city's codified ordinance states. I have in my mind what it sounds to me it says, but I don't want to taint other posts. Can you please tell me what it says to you?? What the girl who answers at the city zoning office says is TOTALLY different than what it sounds to me like it's saying!! Thanks!!
