Riverbend Woods Neighborhood Association

I was stunned to hear this report! It seems that there is a pattern of behavior from those who are feeling what ultimately stems from what is a sense of privilege; and, who are subsequently practicing passive means of communication which finds them not shooting straight with people and hiding behind rules, regulations, and "turning people in".

Be careful not to dignify this practice! Bullys, thugs, policy-punks, and brats come in all shapes, sizes and colors - even in neighborhood associations. Take time to enlighten them! The only power they have is within the confines of their own minds and sense of privilege. Equally, they thrive on a inner-sense of gossip.

Gossip is a form of communication that takes place about another without their consent! Equally, it seeks to communicate in a way that makes the teller of the story to look in power; however, their only reason to communicate outside of their own small mind, (or inner-group) is to confirm their suspicions.

Live and live well! Speak out! Talk directly to the folk and always have them to sight song, verse, and chapter. In the best cases, seek an attorney and remind them that slander and defamation of character is not a right given to a board or intellectually "bored" member of society! Go to the United Way or Catholic Charities and do some real work! Indian Reserve?

Double AMEN....

The Association members need replacing, they have conflict of interest, our neighborhoods well being, should be first, not A FREAKIN....VALUE-O -METER.....as if....lol

Maybe we should have them wearing suite and hats like gangsters, because thats how they are running the neighborhood, like only there opinions matter.  You cut down our entrance trees with NO PROBLEM, don't be hypocrates, either fight for tree life or cut another over grown tree, hell the whole neighborhood is over grown, haven't you noticed....its probably why they call it Forest Ridge....lol   So ridiculous....I mean think about this for just one second....you creid about us cutting dead trees our homeowners ins. forced us to cut....

The entrance looks dumb, we think you should have left it alone, if the person didn't want to maintain them then find someone else.....Easy...YOUR FIRED!  In a recession good help is easy to find.....

I couldn't have put it better.....I love the fact you took the time to lay it all out....You are our kind of neighbor, sorry your not valued neighbor....according to the VALUE-O- METER, neither are we but, it doesn't bother us....lol

I think you should get with us and we should talk in person, I'll buy lunch....Sofia

I think complaining is becoming a waste of everybodies time, go see a movie, stay out of other peoples business, stay in your yard, fix your house, and live.  You are paying for it, if you want to live in a dump, so be it, were not paying there mortage....if you don't like it, talk to the neighbor, or move someplace that offers it your way.....like Burger King...lol

     By the way, as far as a fire pit is concerned, you do not need a permit to burn a log or two....You only need a permit for a bon fire....which is illegal inside thhe city limits without the fire department.

     As far as noise ordinance, scream all yyou want or need between the hours of 7am to 11pm Monday thru Thursday....7am to 1 Am Friday, Sat.....The ordinance is 20 decibles....look it up yourself....that is a band in the back yard! 

Remember when doing projects and construction, improvement comes after making a mess, be tolerant and kind....
