Although we have not yet begun building, we have 2 lots at the end of Sugarwood Blvd on the lake that we maintain. We pay someone to cut the grass, and have been active in deterring people from driving/launching from our property. So, why is it that:
-- although we don't have a house, there is a bucket of shingles on our property? Now, we have to deal with the ants beneath this mess -- although we don't have a house, we have someone's trash on our property?! Doesn't everyone have garbage cans around here? -- although we don't have a driveway, someone dumped the forming boards for a driveway on our property?! This didn't magically blow there with the wind -- although we don't have a house, there is a tetherball box on our property? We didn't buy a tetherball kit and put it up on the property. If you purchased one, COME AND GET YOUR TRASH!!! -- although we're not doing repairs there (as we don't have a house there, yet), why is there a package from a tool set on our land?
It's obvious to me that people have gotten lazy and complacent. If your contractor is doing this, I expect you to rectify this with him. If you are doing this, I would expect that you would have enough pride in your neighborhood not to litter someone's property. I don't think that it being windy lately is an excuse. If and when I build, should I put my trash in someone else's yard? Should I dump it in the lake? I wonder about building in this neighborhood.
