I am going to reactivate this blog as a way to keep everyone informed of what is going on in the neighborhood. My intent is to update this blog once-a-week with "all the news you can use", but if something comes up I will post an update in between times. I will notify everyone of updates to the blog through and email so that you are all aware.
Please feel free to post comments or ask questions through the blog as well. I would like to know if you have something specific that you would like me to address or respond to. I intend on addressing one topic in my blog every week.
I will still deliver my monthly letters as well with the deposit slips at the beginning of the month. I delivered the October letter last evening. I apologize that it is a week early, but Diana and I are going to be out-of-town for a few days. I wanted to make sure you had the necessary information before the first of the month.
For this blog post, please allow me to repeat the policy about pets that I put out in the monthly letter.
Due to some recent tragic incidents, I need to emphasize our pet policies:
- Dogs should not be left outside unattended either loose, or staked out.
- That will remove the need to have bowls of water and/or food outside. Leaving food and water out tends to draw stray and/or wild animals into the neighborhood.
- The pet rent is $25 per pet. If you get another pet you must let us know so that we can adjust your rent accordingly.
- Finally please make sure that you are cleaning up after your pets, especially if they are making a mess in the yard of another unit.
Our pet policies are meant for indoor pets. Thank you for making the neighborhood a clean and safe environment for everyone.
I have noticed that there aren't as many stray cats running around the neighborhood. If there is no food or water left out the stray cats will soon find another place to beg.
Please let me know if there are any additions to the policy that you would like to suggest.
Even though I am out of town for a few days, if you have problems I can still be reached at my mobile number (417-372-5354). Feel free to contact me to let me know of any problems or questions.
