EPPING, N.H. (AP) – A New Hampshire homeowner is debating whether to repaint his home. But he may face opposition.

About 15 years ago, Paul Gatchell, of Epping, painted his home orange with purple polka-dots and lime green trim.

He says he did it to get back at a neighbor who was mad at him for storing equipment on the property.

Some people say the Main Street home has become something of a landmark and they don’t want to see it change.

However, the paint is fading and Gatchell may put up vinyl siding.

He says he is open to suggestions.
