I had neighbor trouble that may help others

neighbor complained about our barking dogs. come to find out the one
neighbor who was complaing had started a home based investment business
and he didnt want the faint sound of dogs barking or even basketballs
bouncing he had complained about that too. A police officer told us he
was now assigned to the case, and suggested we get rid of the dogs. my
wife cant have kids, she got so upset.

Dealing with the barking not an option that occurred to you?

Right before that I had a issue about where the town put a stop sign in
my yard, and attended a meeting complaining of the procedure they used
even after they agreed to move it.

I had reputation as trouble maker

So I went and saw town manager Hi give me all rules on halfway houses
and welfare relocatees Dont want to break any rules!!

He asked why I would do such a thing..... police officer wasnt
following procedure. he got his head kicked in. I reported the
complainer is he paying his mercantile tax on hios business I PAY
MINE!

After nice chat with chief of police I NEVER got another dog barking
complaint!

Neighbor sold his home and moved to a more high class place......... I
got his new address and told his friends I wanted to move next door to
him tell him that......

if you complain be sure its worth the hassle you may create for
yourself. DO NOTHING WRONG FOR A LONG TIME! have a permit for replacing
that downspout line?

See this is the attitude I'm talking about. "Everyone breaks the law, so you
look the other way else I'll turn *you* in". Believe it or not, people *do* get
permits for that downspout line.

OR - think on this - they know how to live so as not to bother their neighbors,
and know how to get along, *without* depending on all their neighbors staying
mum and putting up with crap. Breaking rules or not - it strikes that your
neighbor's indiscretions were not bothering you, but yours were bothering him.

But the main npoint is that keeping your dogs happy and well-trained would have
saved - so much hassle.

You don't sound like such a smart guy to me.

theres no stopping dogs from barking when they see someone espically
with a dog walking up the street....... dogs were indoors at the time.

the neighbor also filed complaints because kids walked up the street
bouncing a basketball.

I have been here since 1972, new neighbor tried to make it yuppieville.

the neighbor wh complained was 3 doors away the immediate neighbors
tended to come to the fence and visit with our dog........said barking
wasnt a problem

since the idiot mnoved out nearly every house has at least one dog,
they call to one another....

neighborhood has gone to the dogs, ours are small and realtively quiet.

unlike some neighbors we spent about 6 grand making the yard secure
with a 6 foot fence. dogs running loose are a hazard to themselves and
others
