You all may, or may not recall me bitching about my neighbor (not the crackhead guy....the other neighbor).

Quick background info: she's a fscking slob. Never cuts the grass, has junk stacked all over the backyard, has outdoor dogs and never cleans up after them so the yard stinks to the point I can smell it in my yard, etc, etc. I have tried (nicely) to get her to get things sorted out and she just doesn't give a rat's ass.

Anywho, I've been pestering Code Enforcement to come look at her place and cite her. Today, I get a call from an enforcement officer who's at my house. He's on his cell looking into her yard from my yard, and I'm pointing out all the violations and such.


He agrees with me and says she'll be written up ASAP. She's got (IIRC) a week to fix everything or she starts getting hit with increasingly higher fines. :D:D

Update 1/6/05

[*] The Code Enforcement dude actually came out to her house the other day to see if she'd cleaned up all the crap in her yard. She hadn't (of course) so he told me he left her a warning note and that he'll be back in a week to check on her again. If the yard's not clean by then, she's getting a court summons. :D

Final update 2/8/05

[*]She had a crew out this weekend who FINALLY hauled away all the sh*t in her yard. It was quite amazing....an old couch....a broken AC unit....a tub.....a sink....various scrap lumber...etc, etc. I guess Monday was the deadline where she'd be receiving a court summons since the Code Officer showed up yesterday and gave me a call asking if I was happy with the cleanup. This took for-fricking-ever, but at least I don't live next to a junkyard any more. :)

Actually it is pretty nice. I just got stuck next to a slob and a guy whose estranged son is a crackhead.


Wait....no...it really isn't that bad.....really. :p

I used to live next door to a Vietnamese family that had ducks, chickens, and a 500lb hog living in their backyard. This was in the city too. Strange thing was it never smelled bad... Never had a problem with those neighbors.

living in an apt complex (townhouse) I'm pretty lucky. Aside from a few annoying punks who turn their bass up as they drive by it's quiet... Also, there seem to be way more kids than there used to be

as long as you keep it clean, it should'nt be bad, just noisy every now and then with all the animals squawking at each other. we used to have a bunch of chickens until my mom and grandma slaughtered them all (oh the massacre...) and the biggest problem we had is that one day we woke up and found one of them attacked by either a cat (doubtful) or a racoon or possum that wanders through.

If I lived next door to you and you snitched on me.

I would be forced to put the desert on my waist.

Then proceed to get my eagle on.

i'm one of those loud annoying neighbors with the bass :(

I have a set of z560s, and the way they rest under my desk makes for some massive bass ressonance. I appologize if you're my neighbor. I try to keep it down, and only pump up the bass maybe once every week, 2 weeks or so.
Other than that, PWN YOUR NEIGHBOR!

"more kids" + "quiet" in the same sentence? :confused: *brain blows circuit trying to figure that one out* They all deaf-mutes or something? I have kids living around me and I swear to fscking christ they just sit around having screaming contests. Not just at normal hours either, we're talking 11pm, midnight, sometimes later. These are 10-12 year olds, give or take... Ugh, not sure who's worse, them or the parents...

If you lived next door to me, the house wouldn't be a ghetto shithole, so there'd be no need for snitching or deagling. :p

My neighbor built a boatshed out of alum poles and sheet metal about 2 feet from the property line. They stomped on him and put a lien on his house. He's not happy but he's about to take it down. He just got subpenahd too....lol.

Peeps don't read their covenants and then get pissed when they discover they have violated them.

We don't have any neighborhood covenants, but fortunately we have the county to keep things from getting too disgusting. It just takes forever to get them out to look at a property since they're (shocker) very understaffed.

You can't get away with anything in my town. They are total nazis here with old people as their spies.

My lawn was about a week overdue on mowing and they sent me a summons to cut it that day or else I have to go to court. Sheesh. I got home at 8PM and mowed it because I knew they would follow through on their threat.

That kind of stuff is just bullshit. All I want is for this person's yard NOT to look like a junkyard....I don't think that's too much to ask.
