In the debate surrounding the permissibility of clotheslines on residential properties, Hayward CA has weighed in and declared their support for regulations that disallow clotheslines to be maintained in the front yard of a property. The specific portion of their Municipal Code which deals with this can be found in Section 5-7.20 of the attached PDF, which starts on page 3.
This is drawn from the Hayward CA Municipal Code, which is available here.
