Holloway: why have pot plants been deemed a fire hazard?

Available for over a year

People living in Bakersfield, Holloway, said a letter from Notting Hill Genesis declared any items sitting outside in shared spaces must be removed. The letter claimed the objects represented a "severe fire hazard". The housing provider said it was not its intention to cause distress and that its priority was to keep residents safe.
