EDGEWATER, Fla. – A graduation sign celebrating a local high school senior has caused quite the commotion in one Volusia County community.
Barbara Novak said she put up the yard sign over the weekend to honor her granddaughter but said she quickly received a call from someone claiming to be with her homeowner’s association telling her it needed to be removed. “I got a phone call telling me the sign has to come down and this is the HOA,” Novak said. “I told her I will not take that sign down [and] I said, ‘That’s too damn bad, it’s staying up.
My granddaughter can’t graduate. She’s missing out on everything, the least we can do is have a sign for her.’ And I hung up.” Novak said the call came less than a day after she put the yard sign up.
