Please allow this family to stay in their tiny house. I am hoping that more people will come to realize that more is not always better. What a wonderful way to live and show your children, family and friends that material things are not what is important while we are here on earth. God bless this family and prayers for them to remain in their lovely home.

Not everyone can or wants a large home with large debt to go with it. This a beautiful home and the land owner has agreed to let them live there. Let y here people live on peace.

Find a way to may it legal, Ripon. Worried they are not paying taxes? Get creative and find a solution. The community will only be better with Tiny House People contributing. Pass on that message Mustard seed!

PLEASE allow Jessica and Adam Smith to remain on the land they currently occupy in Ripon,,WI. Their home is beautiful and well constructed. I cannot understand, other than outdated city ordinances, why anyone would object to their location, The property owner has several acres of land and the home is placed so that it can't even be seen from the nearest public road. PLEASE grant them a variance or otherwise amend the law(s).

Rather than be penalized, this family should be commended for seeking to live sustainably and with such minimum impact on their surroundings. Please reconsider this drastic action against them and reserve government resources for more important matters

This is America...land of the free and home of the brave, but yet the government and town halls of many states would rather see people homeless on the streets or in debt and helpless rather than allowing the to live a simple live. You should be ashamed. Let them stay in their home and raise their family!

Tiny Home owners are often more eco concious and their homes are often well built and beautiful. It makes no sense that people who choose to live simply with less have no place to live legally. The world needs to evolve and realize tiny home living is a real solution to consuming less and living larger more meaningful lives.

Me and my husband are planning to build our own tiny house on wheels and we are loving the "Tiny House Movement". The government, housing industry, and the big insurance companies need to get on board with the "Movement".

The Tiny House movement is getting bigger and bigger in France (and in Europe I guess) and it's very difficult to find a place here for the exact same stupid reasons : politics. So, I'm with you.

Town of Ripon, why would you NOT want a fine, upstanding family like this to be part of your town? The house is adorable and well kept and the owners (THEY OWN THE HOUSE SCOT FREE) exemplary. Please do the right thing and stop this eviction nonsense. This will go all over and your town will look foolish for acting foolish.

They have every right to stay. They are not harming anything so why should they have to move.

There seems to be plenty of land for this tiny house to sit on! why would you do this to a family trying to better themselves and the life of their family? It's hurting no one!

I am quoting a previous commenter: "It's time for outdated and unfair regulations to be dissolved where appropriate to reflect a new time and responsible use of land and resources." Amen!!!
