What do Brew readers think of this wood chip driveway in Butchers Hill? The owner put it in 12 years ago, according to The Baltimore Sun, but now she’s being told by Baltimore officials that it’s got to be paved.
Is this 1) an anti-green, stormwater-runoff-promotin’ move by a clueless, behind-the-times city? 2) a reasonable policy because such driveways might promote rats and send woodchips into stormdrains and yards 3) a sign that unfortunate owner Maxine Taylor has an enemy in the neighborhood…..?
