| They were probably cited for not having a Home Occupation Permit by their city, and such ordinances can be very anal, and "parking" is one of the largest concerns. Chances are that classes for such a large amount would never be permitted, and someone in the neighborhood likely called the city to complain about the parking issue. | |

| I agree with CeCe. Someone most likely complained and the powers that be had to act on it. They should have just gotten a license in the first place. | |

- Instead, she said the city fined the Fromms for transforming a residential area into a place where people regularly assemble.
As long as the city would have done the same to someone regularly holding bingo games, Tupperware parties, etc., I don't see the problem. | |
