Who's job is it anyways

My husband and I are avid walkers and we LOVE the new sidewalks. It is much safer for everyone and when the sidewalks were first put in the area looked well maintained. At the present time, the lawn area around the sidewalks at most areas is higher than mid-calf when walking. There is trash sporatically thrown as well. The Question is, who is responsible for maintaining and grooming the grass area at the sidewalks. If it is the residence/home owners, then PLEASE take pride on your property. If it the responsbility of the association, it needs to be groomed, trimmed more often. We personally pay are yearly dues and feel that if the reason for the lack of mowing is due to funds, the association needs to make it mandatory for all residents to pay or have it added to the homes taxes. Frankly, we hear in the winter, there are not enough funds for snowplowing the back areas of the development (where we live) and now in the summer months it seem there is not sufficient assistance for sidewalks and trash pickup. Many residents in this develop take pride in keeping their home property maintained. The main drive (Rivers Run Road) is traveled by visitors as well as residents. At this point it's a terrible first impression.

Thank you
I Agree

I totally agree. The area by the stores looks awful. They did all the work for the sidewalks and now it looks like section 8. But if you have noticed the grass in the neighborhood also looks awful. We pay for the grass cutting and nothing gets done.Half the time the grass is cut but not under the big pine trees when you first enter the neighborhood. Why should we continue to pay the dues when nothing is done. It was an ice skating rink in the winter and now the grass is higher than me.
