Veteran Tyler Truitt has been told by the city of Huntsville, Alabama that they can no longer live in their off-the-grid home because their trailer is not hooked up to the city’s utilities system, making it ‘unsafe’.
The 27-year-old and his girlfriend are living completely independent of city utilities – utilizing solar panels and catching rainwater on their 2 acre property.
Huntsville officials have filed suit against Truitt and told him he will be arrested for trespassing should he set foot on his property.

what a shame -a loyal person trying to make his self better
exactly right
1.5 hrs west & he could live how he likes. Only code is septic system !
Maybe we should focus on terrorism, economy, joblessness, failing schools, etc before we worry about one person being self-sufficient
I want off the grid too!!!
Can’t tax someone that’s not using services that’s why they don’t want anyone living a self sustaining lifestyle
Totally insane and ignorant. Leave the vet the hell alone
The State can’t get their TAXES you if you are off grid! CONTROL,CONTROL, CONTROL,CONTROL, CONTROL,CONTROL, CONTROL,CONTROL! WAKE UP SHEEP!
People need to put a stop to the government ..putting their noses in our personal lives …run the country not us.
Why are they being that stupid? This puts my home state to same. There are a few down here that make the entire state. Look stupid, unfortunately the entire city has done so. And a Danny fine job at that.
