Send some feedback on a community get together. The "Association" really is 1 person doing the financial books and scheduling mowing. For years there was a group of us that really tried to get things going. We were always met much resistance and rarely supported. We are all just volunteers that are simple homeowners that have jobs and families to care for.....just like you.
There are many new homeowners around that may have new ideas for our community. Maybe, just maybe some volunteers would step forward to come up with solutions to all the problems everyone is always speaking of. I'm just curious to see if anyone is really interested in putting time and effort into our neighborhood.
Post some feedback and ideas instead of complaints. Maybe we could make it a nice corner social and put our heads together to solve some issues, including collecting dues. I don't know what else to suggest. Maybe, as adults, we could actually make this work.
