Zeb Postelwait sits in a treehouse at his home in Wenatchee, Wash., on March 11, 2014. Officials say the treehouse overhangs the sidewalk, threatening public safety.

Two months later he received his first notice from the city to tear it down.

The Wenatchee World reports (http://bit.ly/OourOL ) officials say the treehouse overhangs the sidewalk, threatening public safety. Postelwait disagrees.

City officials say he could keep it if he takes out a $1 million insurance policy. But Postelwait says no way.

The city is prepared to seek a court order to remove the treehouse and send Postelwait the bill. He feels the city is harassing him.
