Good Neighbors/Bad Neighbors
From
KREM
is a story about what good neighbors can do with one very bad neighbor. Lt. Burke Jensen and his pregnant wife moved into a new home in Kennewick, a year ago. Then he was deployed to Iraq and his wife went to stay with family on the East Coast. Meanwhile, the president of the housing association where his house was, wanted Jensen to honor his contract and landscape his yard. Well, obviously, Jensen wasn’t physically able to comply and this just irritated the Bad Neighbor, to the point he was having the housing association start up a suit against Jensen. His ranting and ravings were met with a large handful of neighbors contributing their time in landscaping Jensen’s yard. I think the housing association should ban the Bad Neighbor off the association’s land.
