Clearwater businessman Dru Jeanis opposes the city's enforcement action against a fish mural. To make a case for his now partner in crime, Jeanis has put up his own mural and says he hopes the city cites him for not obtaining a permit.
Jeanis, who has spoken before the City Council, had an 8- by 12-foot political cartoon painted on the side of Pure Postcards, his postcard marketing business at 1227 S. Lincoln Ave. It shows various city officials with word balloons coming out of their mouths, quoting comments they've made during the controversy.
