OPINION

HUSPENI, Judge.

Appellant, Glen Bjornson, appeals from a misdemeanor conviction for a zoning ordinance violation, contending that errors committed by the trial court deprived him of a fair trial. He claims that (1) the trial court coerced the jury verdict; (2) the trial court erred in several of its evidentiary rulings; (3) the ordinance is unconstitutionally vague; (4) the trial court erred by not instructing the jury on intent and (5) the trial court erred in including attorney’s fees in the costs of prosecution assessed against him. We affirm as modified.
