Re: update on garden/bottle brush

The county environmental department. Same guys who tell you how many and what kind of trees to plant. One of the more interesting things about this goofy law is that the number of trees you have to plant is determined by the size of the lot minus the footprint of the buildings, so if you build a mansion with a guest house on your lot you have to plant fewer "code" trees than the guy who builds a smaller house on the same size lot.

So Jim, who pocketed the $500?
