Are home's turrets too high? Neighbors seek city code enforcement

I heard from a very reliable source that the county is going to buy the house and put level three sex offenders in it. The turrets can be used to keep a watchful eye if any of them try to escape.

Some people will complain about anything, even if its their own neighbors. Get a life people.

It seems to me that this is a group of neighbors that are intent on being jerks to each other. I think it is fairly funny looking on from the outside as they probably all deserve each other knowing who all the involved parties are. As far as the Crow river having a shoreline district, I think the district is defined as to the proximity to water, not how attractive the actual shoreline is as implied my Uncle Ted.

Perhaps even more than the turrets in question, neighbors last week told the council that perhaps their greatest concern is that construction on the unfinished house has stretched on for as much as 4 1/2 years with long periods of no work taking place. With it has come construction materials blowing around the neighborhood, a dumpster in the driveway much of the time, the door to the house left open and the cul-de-sac becoming something of a tourist attraction with gawkers driving into it to take a look.
