Anonymous Letter - If This Happens...

Jul 10, 2003

A visitor at the June NGSNA meeting, who is also a resident of North Glen Square, read to us an anonymous letter which had been left at her door. The writer represented that he (or she) was communicating on behalf of the neighbors in the ?“North Glen Square Association?”. The substance of the letter was basically a request, or suggestion, that the resident take better care of her property, clean up the yard, and so forth.

Two important points need to be made concerning this situation. First, it is neither the purpose nor function of the North Glen Square Neighborhood Association to monitor each other?’s yards. NGSNA is not a ?“homeowner?’s association?”. Our community is not bound by CC&R?’s (conditions, covenants, and restrictions), and we have no authority to dictate what residents do (or don?’t do) concerning overgrown vegetation, barking dogs, parked cars, roofing, broken windows, peeling paint, broken fence, etc. The Neighborhood Services Department of the City of Phoenix handles such concerns through enforcement of City ordinances, and our neighborhood association has no authority in these matters. We would not write such a letter.

Second, correspondence sent by a representative of North Glen Square Neighborhood Association is on NGSNA letterhead stationery and will always bear the name and signature of the writer. Our Association does not send anonymous letters.

It should be of concern to Association members, as it was to those of us in attendance at the June meeting, that someone would write a letter with the apparent intent that the reader believe they were receiving something representing North Glen Square Neighborhood Association, its ?‘board of directors, or members. If anyone else has received such a letter, we would appreciate your informing us as this resident did, and please be assured it was not authored by our Association. . .☺
