The board stated that the chosen color represents "a disfigurement in the sensitive and high-quality surroundings of the Wiehre" and asked the "painter" to zurückbauen (deconstruct) the surface bringing it into its initial state; otherwise, legal action will follow.
A poll among Freiburgers showed that 73% favor this touch of vivid color, but those do not live near the neighborhood. The "painter" is astonished by the discussion. "I can't understand the whole theater," he says. "My neighborhood has garden zones in front of houses that have been asphalted. Is that nicer?" he asks. "Also, some houses in the Wiehre are painted in a similar shade of blue. I am aware that taste is open to dispute - but in this case, an innovative and creative idea is simply flattened."

Now the causer is looking for a compromise and is even willing to discuss the color of the surface with Freiburg's legal board of construction.
