To the Editor:
Bam . Bam . Bang! That’s the sound of a basketball banging against someone’s garage. People should not play basketball in the street. It is annoying and against the law. It could also be quite dangerous.
First, there is the ball problem. Cars can run over basketballs left astray in the street. And balls also bounce on private property. They have a tendency to roll toward flowerbeds, land in the bushes, and rebound off garage doors. Folks will be annoyed and angry whenever they hear the booms and crashes.
Also, it is just plain against the law. The Santa Paula Municipal Code, section 96.03 states that there shall be no objects like basketball hoops located on the street or sidewalk. Section 96.08 of the same code declares that any sort of ball playing on the street is prohibited. People who are playing on the street are breaking the law.
