The Springfield (Pa) Commissioners, Jan. 10, had the first reading of an ordinance that would restrict yard sales by residents. Residents would be limited to two a year and have to pay a $10 fee per sale.
Whose egregious abuse of residential zoning is causing such action to come about? You know who you are on West Springfield Road and on North Rolling Road.
Limiting yard sales to two a year is a good idea, but a $10 fee to allow a resident to clean out his garage? Sounds like our commissioners have been listening to Obama.
Have you ever considered virtual sales? No ordinances to worry about.
