10-Year Poll

Dumb laws. Over the years, lawmakers have given us a lot to beware of—and laugh about. For instance, in Fresno, it’s against the law to annoy lizards. In Cerritos, you are required to remove your pet’s waste from your yard within one week, and in Downey, it’s illegal to wash your car in the street. We can see the value in some laws, but others think they are just plain dumb, or at the very least, a nuisance.

In honor of Real Estate Southern California’s 10th anniversary, we’d like to hear from readers about their choice for top dumbest, or worst, pieces of legislation in the past 10 years that have to do with commercial real estate.
