Restaurant Faces $2000 Fine for Washing Away Bird Poop

"A restaurant owner in Corpus Christi, Texas is furious after city officials threatened him with a $2,000 fine for using a garden hose to wash away bird droppings on the sidewalk in front of his business.

“They told me I can’t wash it off because I’m polluting,” said John Webb, general manager of Crawdaddy’s , a family-owned restaurant in downtown. “It’s like they want me to go out of business.”"
