High grass, overgrown bushes,<br />broken windows, broken railing, losing paint...)</span><br /></div><br />Time for an Enid Buzz Rant...<br /><br />Seems like there's a lot of talk about trashy neighbors and cleaning up Enid. I'm not exactly sure what the controversy is about. Why would anyone not want a clean neighborhood and a better looking Enid? Oh, I forgot, there are those folks in Enid like my ex-neighbors from several years back.<br /><br />Let's see, we lived next door to each other in a very west side addition with nice homes and clean yards. These neighbors, not poor, were dirty, stinkin, nasty people. That's it. They just didn't care one iota about being clean, looking good or what anyone else thought. Sure it's a free country but not when your nasty habits affect my life.<br /><br />You see, these neighbors had six dogs. They kept three very large dogs in the bag yard. They went one summer without ever cutting the backyard grass. These dogs only had a path around the edges of the fence to walk. The swing set was buried in grass and their daughter could not have used a machete to find her way through even if she had wanted to. They also kept three little dogs inside their very stinky house. Because of the dogs in back they erected a wire fence in the front yard right next to our bedroom window.<br /><br />Needles to say, every time they would let these yapping banshee's outside at 5:30 a.m. they would wake us up. They only mowed their front yard about once every six weeks. We actually had a neighbor across the street mow their lawn one day because he was tired of looking at the knee high grass.<br /><br />Now why should I care about lazy slobs like this? Because their nasty, uncivilized behavior caused our yard to become infested with fleas, ticks and mice. Their screeching dogs woke us up nearly every morning. Calling the city didn't help much because the dogs had to be outside screeching for them to get ticketed and the dogs normally stayed inside the pee infested house.<br /><br />Did we invite many people over to our house? No. Did we enjoy coming home and making our yard look good? No. Did we move out of the neighborhood as quick as we could? YES! Listen, if you want to complain that it is your right to live like a pig that's fine. Just don't do it next to my house. You all find a nice rat infested neighborhood, park your cars in the yard and move in together.<br /><br />I found a great site to help Enid with it's trashy people problem. If your neighbor is a lazy slob report them to this site. If you are looking for a place to live check out the site and avoid the areas with the "problem" citizens. This site also gives the location of sex offenders.<br /><br />Visit <a href="http://www.rottenneighbor.com/">RottenNeighbor.com</a> and start reporting those nasty neighbors today!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Please leave your comments and SOLUTIONS below...</span><div style="clear:both; padding-bottom:0.25em"></div> </div> </div> <p class="post-footer"> <em>posted by Shaggy D at <a href="http://www.enidbuzz.com/2008/07/rotten-neighbors-in-enid.html" title="permanent link">8:00 AM</a></em> <span class="item-control blog-admin pid-476040982"><a style="border:none;" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=19126171&postID=8287216371759793295" title="Edit Post"><img class="icon-action" alt="" src="http://www.blogger.com:80/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif" height="18" width="18"></a></span> </p> </div>   <div id="comments"> <a name="comments"></a> <h4>8 Comments:</h4> <dl id="comments-block"> <dt class="comment-poster" id="c7317897606097328044"><a name="c7317897606097328044"></a> <span style="line-height:16px" class="comment-icon anon-comment-icon"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/anon16-rounded.gif" alt="Anonymous" style="display:inline;" /></span> <span class="anon-comment-author">Anonymous</span> said... </dt> <dd class="comment-body"> <p>I sure hope someone buys that beautiful old home, and fixes it up!

If not fines and cutting off water, then what? Why have a clean up plan but not enforce it?<BR/><BR/>My old neighbors were disgusting and I was almost powerless to do anything about the problem. The only solution that worked was for me to move. Should everyone have to move because their neighbors are slobs?<BR/><BR/>I understand there are elderly and disabled which I hope would not be fined if they would communicate with the City. But should their yards become public hazards and eye sores just because they can't keep them up?<BR/><BR/>How about forming a group of kid volunteers or kids in trouble and having them clean up the yards of those unable. Everyone else can just live without their water!</p> </dd> <dd class="comment-timestamp"><a href="#365502348158474940" title="comment permalink">10:17 AM</a> <span class="item-control blog-admin pid-476040982"><a style="border:none;" href="http://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=19126171&postID=365502348158474940" title="Delete Comment" ><span class="delete-comment-icon"> </span></a></span> </dd> <dt class="comment-poster" id="c4179825576190502266"><a name="c4179825576190502266"></a> <span style="line-height:16px" class="comment-icon blogger-comment-icon"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" alt="Blogger" style="display:inline;" /></span> <a href="http://www.blogger.com/profile/04265882412870133474" rel="nofollow">KiddoKare1</a> said... </dt> <dd class="comment-body"> <p>I didn't disagree about the fines, just about the water.

I have contacted a few of Enids top city officals to help them impliment a effective code enforcement department. They turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to me.<BR/>Until you make EVERYONE play by the same rules, you will have ugly spots in Enid.<BR/>The fines for grass in excess of 12" in Plano is $350!! $50 to the contractor that mows the property, the other $300 in the citys general fund. It made a lot of money for Plano( they bought hybrid cars from the general fund) and keeps up property values at the same time.<BR/>Make some noise as citizens!! Call the newspaper, call the OKC t.v. stations and get the word out that Enid needs to clean itself up!!<BR/><BR/>A former Enid native,<BR/>Greg Gulick</p> </dd> <dd class="comment-timestamp"><a href="#2410392979060790942" title="comment permalink">12:17 PM</a> <span class="item-control blog-admin pid-1373211423"><a style="border:none;" href="http://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=19126171&postID=2410392979060790942" title="Delete Comment" ><span class="delete-comment-icon"> </span></a></span> </dd> <dt class="comment-poster" id="c4600777948792651290"><a name="c4600777948792651290"></a> <span style="line-height:16px" class="comment-icon anon-comment-icon"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/anon16-rounded.gif" alt="Anonymous" style="display:inline;" /></span> <span class="anon-comment-author">Anonymous</span> said... </dt> <dd class="comment-body"> <p>My vote is Curtis for mayor.</p> </dd> <dd class="comment-timestamp"><a href="#4600777948792651290" title="comment permalink">7:22 PM</a> <span class="item-control blog-admin pid-453477796"><a style="border:none;" href="http://www.blogger.com/delete-comment.g?blogID=19126171&postID=4600777948792651290" title="Delete Comment" ><span class="delete-comment-icon"> </span></a></span> </dd> </dl> <p class="comment-timestamp"> <a class="comment-link" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19126171&postID=8287216371759793295&isPopup=true" onclick="window.open(this.href, 'bloggerPopup', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,resizable=1,width=400,height=450');return false;">Post a Comment</a> </p> <p class="comment-timestamp"> <a href="http://www.enidbuzz.com/enidblog.html"><< Home</a> </p> </div>  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.blogger.com/static/v1/common/js/327583163-csitaillib.js"></script> <script>if (typeof(window.attachCsiOnload) != 'undefined' && window.attachCsiOnload != null) { window.attachCsiOnload('ext_blogspot');
