The city of Frederickstopia placed a ban on residents of neighboring counties, Spotsyltucky and Staffordton, over the weekend. Critics cite the recent Christmas parade as one of the potential reasons for the council's decision.
"The city has not made it clear why they have placed the ban," said police spokeswoman Natatia Bledsoe, "but I'm sure the mess they made at the parade didn't help." Over 1,200 ice cream sandwich wrappers were found strewn about the city streets after Saturday's parade. A majority of which were tossed aside with a "county disregard" as one onlooker put it.
"We have been instructed to strictly enforce the new restrictions," continued Bledsoe, "and we intend to do so." The Frederickstopia PD will set up checkpoints along entrances to the city and conduct random searches in which patrons of public facilities will be asked to produce proof of residency.
"It seems counterproductive," commented Spotsyltucky Supervisor Hap Connors when told of the news, "We've worked so hard to strengthen the relationship between the city and the county and now it all seems like a waste. At least we have our own Target now... and Starbucks... and Home Depot."
"I don't know if a few security checkpoints are going to cut it," said a Rebublican, "I think we need to have a serious conversation about building a really tall fence around the city."
"Oh, and our own Chick-fil-A," Hap added.
