MACEDONIA, Ohio

A Northeast Ohio homeowners’ association has retreated in its fight against a flagpole in an Army veteran’s front yard.

The attorney for 77-year-old Fred Quigley said that a letter was hand-delivered Thursday saying the flagpole could stay in place at the home in Macedonia

Neighborhood developer Joseph Migliorini had been quoted saying Quigley’s 14-foot flagpole violated the association’s rules and that it “it wouldn’t look good” if all residents put flagpoles in their small front yards. n American Legion post held a flag-raising ceremony at the home to show support for Quigley.
