Councilman cleans up

... but turns potty into planter

Code enforcers at the urging of the mayor told Snellville, Georgia, city councilman Robert Jenkins a month ago to clean up his property.

And he did.

Well, sort of.

He was told to remove an old toilet and a broken-down car as well as trash.

He couldn't part with the toilet, which he said was in good shape.

Instead he turned it into a planter, spreading rocks around the porcelain base and planting a tulip bulb, two bunches of daffodils and two iris plants.

Mayor Jerry Oberholtzer chuckled when he heard about it, saying he's glad Jenkins cleaned up his act.

Jenkins says his proud of his potted potty.

He says it's his contribution to folk art, adding and that he loves to see things grow.
