Salem Woods Maintenance Association Phases II, III & IV

Our entrances (all) need to be cleaned up--trash everywhere!  Homeowners need to take the initiative and clean up.  I realize most of the trash is probably coming from students at the bus stops, but it gives people a terrible first impression of SW.  I live on Jaymar and daily have to pick up cigarette butts, water bottles, bags, etc.  Please if your property runs along one of the entrances, pick up the trash.  Thanks.

I can't agree more.  I drove and picked up trash at the Joseph Drive entrance and at various point along Jaymar.  The main entrance off of Old Baltimore Pike actually didn't look bad today -- I'm assuming someone recently picked up trash there.  The entrance on Aspen Drive through Summer Hill is still horrible--which many Salem Woods residents use as well.  While walking our dog along the loop along Jaymar to Aspen, we also pick up trash periodically.  I would like to track down the individual who uses SKOAL chewing tabocco and then uses H20 brand water bottles as a spittoon.  We probably pick up 5 -10 of those bottles a week!!!  Bottom line, all of the trash is not result of kids.  Everybody needs to do their part.

Thanks for agreeing with me.  Sometimes I wonder if I'm crazy!  I, too, have picked up the chewing tabacco bottle from the front of my home.  And, yes, I think someone did trash pick-up on Joseph.  I've noticed that sometimes the gentleman whose driveway is on Joseph but is not a SW house has picked up trash.  Perhaps a small article in the newsletter to heighten awareness regarding the trash might help.  I'll send an email to one of the officers.

well I am glad there is other people who feel the same way! What about some of these fences? either take them down or fix them i am so tired of coming in the entrance off of old baltimore pike and seeing the two worse fences in sw why?
