City of Lee’s Summit forces kids to tear down fort

“It all started with kids grabbing some scraps of wood and learning together how to build something, but Friday the Bobcats taught them a different lesson: you can’t always keep what you want.  The Pergola neighborhood kids built a fort on an empty lot with scraps from construction on the surrounding larger homes.  ‘They don’t care what it looks like. It’s not about outer beauty, it’s about the fun, the cohesion between the kids,’ said neighbor Chris Pate.  But building inspectors checked it out and told the neighbors it didn’t meet city code, so it had to come down. ‘My 6-year-old was pretty mad and said he didn’t want to live in the city of Lee’s Summit anymore,” said neighbor Kim Sharp.”
