One thing that will make this a better neighborhood is to think of how to act to help rather then sit, fume and complain that somebody ought to do something about it. The officers and members of the board are volunteer and they bare the brunt of a lot of complaints that they only deal with because they care. If the neighbor's grass needs cutting, find out if you can help or even cut it yourself. Maybe the mowers broke? Light a candle and don't curse the darkness.

ANOTHER CANDLE LIT

I AGREE WITH YOU 1OO PERCENT. THERE ARE MANY WONDERFUL PEOPLE WHO LIVE HERE. I SEE THEM HARD AT WORK IN THEIR YARDS AND DOING REPAIRS TO THEIR HOMES.THERE IS NOT ENOUGH PRAISE OR THANKS GIVEN. I FEEL THE MORAL OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS WHAT'S SUFFERING MOST.I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE THAT WORK SO HARD TO KEEP THIS A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE.

I'll provide a candle or two

Ken has the right idea and I'll take it a step further and say that if you have a neighbor who's grass may need to be cut and there is a problem preventing it, then I'll volunteer my services. I see the big picture, Woodlake. One name, one community a team.
