A Flanders woman who was facing code violations for placing a sign on her property was told by a judge she can keep the sign up after she made a few changes.

Susan Tocci put up a sign on her property off Flanders Road a few weeks ago that says, “Save a Life – Do not text & drive.” She says the sign is meant to be a reminder to not drive distracted and it is also a dedication to her sister Barbara and her nephew’s fiancé, who were both killed in separate crashes.

“I want people to stay focused, stay on track, don’t text and drive, don’t drive under the influence, don’t let somebody else’s family feel the pain that our family feels every day,” Tocci says. A local civic association complained about the sign, and Tocci was facing code violations as a result. Read more:   https://brooklyn.news12.com/code-violations-for-sign-in-flanders-dismissed-after-homeowner-adds-bible-verse
