Save the Greenhouse

The following is an update regarding where the Bovey's (and their supporters) currently stand in their journey to #SaveTheGreenhouse:

First the good news, thanks to your overwhelming generosity, we were able to raise nearly $2,500 dollars to help cover a mountain of legal fees for the Bovey's, including a $15,000 dollar appeal to the courts.

Unfortunately, the circuit court judge has ruled against a hearing. This means the $20,000 fine that the Bovey's originally faced at the start will soon become a reality.

For everyone who attended city council meetings, wrote a kind word, planted a yard sign, decorated the Bovey's front door, and donated with their hearts, the Bovey's offer their sincerest thanks and endless gratitude. Regardless of how this story ends, please know that you played an important role in fighting a battle the Bovey family never wanted to wage. Win or lose, we hope the Bovey greenhouse story is a catalyst for change in how our local government operates.

We will provide additional updates with any further significant developments. Until then, consider supporting the Bovey's financially in order to ease the burden of their extended legal battle.

La siguiente es una actualización sobre la situación actual de los Bovey (y sus seguidores) en su viaje hacia #SalvarElInvernadero:

Primero, la buena noticia: gracias a su abrumadora generosidad, pudimos recaudar casi $2,500 dólares para ayudar a cubrir una montaña de honorarios legales para los Bovey, incluida una apelación de $15,000 dólares ante los tribunales.

Desafortunadamente, el juez del tribunal de circuito falló en contra de la audiencia. Esto significa que la multa de 20.000 dólares a la que se enfrentaron originalmente los Bovey al principio pronto se hará realidad.

Para todos los que asistieron a las reuniones del concejo municipal, escribieron una palabra amable, colocaron un letrero en el jardín, decoraron la puerta principal de Bovey y donaron con sus corazones, los Bovey ofrecen su más sincero agradecimiento y su infinita gratitud. Independientemente de cómo termine esta historia, sepa que usted jugó un papel importante en la lucha de una batalla que la familia Bovey nunca quiso librar. Gane o pierda, esperamos que la historia del invernadero Bovey sea un catalizador para el cambio en la forma en que opera nuestro gobierno local.

Proporcionaremos actualizaciones adicionales con cualquier novedad importante. Hasta entonces, considere apoyar financieramente a los Bovey para aliviar la carga de su prolongada batalla legal.
