Fly It High
I originally mentioned this case in July. Now it appears that a resolution has been reached.
EULESS – The flap is over in the Heritage Place neighborhood. American flags can now fly free.
Homeowners voted Monday to revise a deed restriction and allow flags to be flown as long as they are not larger than 5 feet by 8 feet, and not faded or damaged.
Of course, not everyone is happy. It seems that a few people are miffed that their petty tyranny was exposed for all to see.
Tensions remained high Monday night. Many homeowners expressed frustration about the media attention, and at least two people walked out of the meeting at the Midway Recreation Center.
“This is creating nothing but animosity between all of our neighbors,” said one resident who declined to identify herself.
They may also be unhappy that their actions have spawned potential state legislation to bar any homeowners assocation from preventing the American flag from being flown.
