Golfers Shut Down Home Businesses?

What is happening? A woman who runs a business in her Lakeway, Texas home discovered her business shut down by the City of Lakeway. Allegedly after golfers complained that “they could hear and see children playing in her backyard”

Why is this important? A lawsuit asserts that the City of Lakeway’s use of zoning laws to stop a state-licensed home day care business is unconstitutional

How will this be important? Look, I can’t make this quote up, and it speaks volumes ““A former mayor’s desire to golf without seeing children’s toys outside any of the homes near the golf course does not defeat a single mother’s right to earn a living by caring for her neighbors’ children,” said IJ Attorney Jared McClain.
