The planters in Tina Asmus' front yard aren't too pleasing to some of her neighbors, and village officials in Lakemoor have told her to remove them, or face a fine. Asmus, who likes to recycle discarded items, created the planters out of two old toilets and a pedestal sink. Mayor Todd Weihoffen, who is a plumber by trade, said he stands behind police who have given Asmus 30 days to remove the toilets.
He said she faces a fine of $25 to $500 if she doesn't comply by June 15.
Asmus, though, said she will not remove what she calls her "art pieces." She said each toilet planter cost about $100 to make and holds an assortment of daisies, angel's breath, lilies and other flowers.
