"live free or die" is dead

New Hampshire's motto needs to be changed.

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (CBS) – Kimberly Bois’ tiny front yard garden isn’t much to look at right now. But in a few weeks, it’ll be in full bloom, and every blossom will cost her dearly.

Even though she says her builder gave her permission to do a little planting, the current condo board now says she’s in violation.

They’re charging the Portsmouth, New Hampshire homeowner $50 a day for being so petal pushy. That fine has reached close to $6,000, plus the board’s legal fees.

The association’s bylaws don’t expressly forbid planting flowers on your property, Bois explains, nor do they explicitly allow it.​

So, how is she in violation?

Which is why I will never live in anything that has a HOA or Condo Board or anything of the sort.



I feel naked without at least one junk car or some such flotsam in my yard.
