Anonymous letter or something. We have a lot like that in our neighborhood too. Luckily for me it's at the other end of the street. I would have never dreamed to start dumping on it though:OChupieandJ'smama (Janeen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12367131116081742274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-7760403886413225652007-07-14T22:55:00.000-05:002007-07-14T22:55:00.000-05:00shrubbery!our neighbors (and they actually live in...shrubbery!<BR/><BR/>our neighbors (and they actually live in the house) are particularly negligent of everything one might notice from the outside... grass, windows, doors, etc. At times the city has intervened to force them to cut the grass under city health ordinances.

(Yes, I have land preservation issues) They have been called, as well as the real estate agent, but no one cares because they don't have to see it. They don't even mow it in the summer - we do half and the neighbors on the other side do half. And the township says "there's nothing we can do about it" meaning: it would take up too much donut time. <BR/><BR/>Mira Mom: Ongoing construction is one of the reasons I hate living in developments. I thought they were finished here . . . oh, well.<BR/><BR/>GeeGee: Thanks, Mom :) I can always count on you to be as fired up about this as I am. ALthough I seriously don't think that 69 news and the paper would really care. Plus, I don't want the "cliques" in the neighborhood to have it in for me :)Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16332125903937752882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-532385694912777122007-07-13T18:53:00.000-05:002007-07-13T18:53:00.000-05:00all I'm sayin' is...channel 69 News and "The Morni...all I'm sayin' is...channel 69 News and "The Morning Call"...get on it...GeeGeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-60073908455846300272007-07-13T17:01:00.000-05:002007-07-13T17:01:00.000-05:00It is a pain in the butt situation; good luck with...It is a pain in the butt situation; good luck with a resolution. I will offer this piece of advice, if the dirt starts to be removed by massive dump trucks instead of deposited- MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR WINDOWS ARE CLOSED! When the pile behind our house started to take shape as phase 3 of the development, I didn't think much of it until at the end of the week the layer of dust in the house was about an inch thick and I had just cleaned on Monday.<BR/>Also, the homewoners assoc. may be your best bet.<BR/>good luck!<BR/>- Mirabella MomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-59612372854167754782007-07-13T14:17:00.000-05:002007-07-13T14:17:00.000-05:00Is the owner just completely unaware?Cause I would...Is the owner just completely unaware?<BR/><BR/>Cause I would be sending a letter signed:<BR/><BR/><I>Concerned for your property, Anonymous</I>Ms. Skywalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01611709391769911868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-54309376519682824382007-07-13T13:13:00.000-05:002007-07-13T13:13:00.000-05:00This is one of the times when an HOA may actually ...This is one of the times when an HOA may actually be helpful.

Have you tried contacting the land owners? Or having the police contact the land owners about potential trespassing or illegal dumping? There's a good chance that if you explain what an eye sore that lot is turning into, and how it is likely to make it more difficult to sell... I think you get the idea.T with Honeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13870996927675120152noreply@blogger.com
