The family and children of Jeremy Trentelman used a bunch of cardboard boxes to build a "castle"in their front yard in Ogden, Utah. The family has reportedly received a letter from City Code Enforcement officials stating
that the castle is violating city code, which prohibits people from
putting junk in their yards. Trentelman has 15 days to take the castle down, or faces a $125 penalty.
Trentelman later told KUTV, “They can also file criminal charges against us and levy the fines as a lien against the house. So they're not playing.”
Trentelman said had he not received the demand to dismantle the fort,
he would have taken it down in a few days anyway. But after getting the
warning from Ogden, he says he will keep Casa Castle up until just
before the penalty. “It was a great project for all of us to build, and now it’s just
(fun) watching them play in it, and watching their imagination run wild
is just fantastic.”
And when juvenile delinquency goes up in Ogden over such unadulterated bull, the City of Ogden will be wondering who to blame. I'll bet they don't spend a dime on playgrounds and they get together every Sunday like the good Mormons they claim to be.
