MANDATING
CLOTHESLINES

There is currently a proposal to override CC&R restrictions against clotheslines so that owners can hang their laundry out to dry. This would apply to condominium associations, planned developments, highrises, mixed-use developments, and every other form of community association in California.

The author of the resolution, Tina Rasnow, believes that "People need to be encouraged to reduce energy consumption in order to reduce greenhouse gases and global warming." Ms. Rasnow describes clotheslines as "passive solar devices" and argues that clotheslines can reduce average household energy consumption in California by 10%.

Ms. Rasnow is coordinator of a self-help legal access center, which caters to people who can't afford legal representation.

She argues that "Clotheslines are an easy way for people to reduce their non-renewable energy source consumption without investing a lot of money."
