Burlington, Ontario, since the author expects you to intuit or infer which Burlington they're talking about, since there are five in Canada and many more around the world.
Yes, but Ontario is the center of the universe. Didn't you know?
Reading the article makes it seem that that the bylaws officers are Karen's and it would be "easy to fix" if someone more climate conscious and educated replaced them. However, I wonder if this goes deeper like neighbors worried about resale value or something and bylaws offiers are scapegoat.
critical thinking!? on the internet?? get the fuck outta here, it's 2025 you don't belong here anymore
Clueless bureaucrats, wow that is infuriating.
Many municipalities actually have bylaws that protect naturalized gardens as beneficial to local ecosystems, and residents can often fight these citations by demonstrating intentional design and ecological benifits - worth checking local environmental advocacy groups who might help with the legal battle.
