Clotheslines Are Battle Lines
Drying clothes in the fresh air may be eco-friendly, but don’t tell that to one Oregon HOA, which went after a woman for putting up a clothesline in her backyard. Though the homeowner was willing to put up a fabric screen to keep her neighbors from seeing her laundry, the HOA rejected that, too, saying it was too conspicuous. The homeowner was forced to air-dry in her garage.
