So, my grandfather was sick. He didn't make it unfortunately. But i have a lot of masks left over. I keep some in my truck and sometimes when i see someone (usually homeless) who needs one, i give them one of my unused ones if we can reach each other.

Now, a while back i watched a news story about some little girl who got in trouble for giving homeless people food without a permit.

While i get the reason it's there, i don't agree with that law, but since i am not a little girl that can just get a slap on the hand, i would get the fine, and i can't afford for that to happen.

So i ask, if i give my extra masks to people every once in a while, i'm not gonna get in trouble, am i? Honestly i'd give them to the hospital if it wasn't such a negligible amount to them. (I have a few small boxes, don't have an exact count, maybe two or three. So not very much.)

Thanks in advance.

Some questions about my "City-issued Lawn Ornament". https://houstonnewmedia.org/some-questions-about-my-city-issued-lawn-ornament/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=some-questions-about-my-city-issued-lawn-ornament Sun, 26 Apr 2020 10:34:40 +0000 http://houstonnewmedia.org/?guid=ef595271ff2f2587c65d308ee2bc5db6

So, i've had a stop sign in my lawn for a while now. I honestly hate it, as people like to throw trash in my yard. (Someone even smashed a beer bottle on my mailbox and i didn't see the glass till i stepped in it. Thankfully i wear thick-souled shoes.) But i mind it cause i have to.

Now, my grandpa owned this house when it was put in his lawn, he's recently no longer with us, so most of the responsibility has fallen on to me. He never got a chance to pass on all that he wanted to, so I have to ask...

What are the rules about it?

Do i have to fix it if it falls over?

If it's destroyed by some dingus, is it my problem? (Like it was when they ran over my first mailbox)

Can i put my garbage can by it? (My sidewalk ends right next to it.)

We have a small driveway, i know typical rules parking around stop signs, but does that change in a congested neighborhood?

What can i do about people throwing trash in my yard?

I dunno. I tend to overthink little things. I just don't want to get a ticket right in front of my house, or at all really.
