HILLSBOROUGH, CA — The town of Hillsborough recently filed suit against the current owner of perhaps its most famous home, dubbed the "Flintstone House," according to reports. Florence Fang is in hot water for adding decor like a statue of Fred Flintstone and a herd of dinosaurs, according to NBC Bay Area.

The town, though, believes those statues are an "eyesore."

NBC Bay Area reports the lawsuit was filed "because the landscaping improvements create a highly visible eyesore and are out of keeping with community standards, the decision and order required that they be removed by Dec. 5, 2018."
