Today I journeyed down to the Tamarind Grove neighborhood postal station to pick up my mail and found a Community Watch truck with a watch person going up to residents walking their dogs and informing them that this was no longer allowed in this area.
I asked for an explanation, and was told that this area was being used as a "dog park" and that the developer had received complaints. He said that this common area was the property of the developer and not the residents, and that henceforth no dogs would be allowed.
I responded that I had occasionally walked my dog there and that my realtor suggested this as a good place to walk dogs when we purchased our home 2 and a half years ago. He suggested I use the dog park on Bonita behind the fire station and I told him I'd been there and it was about the size of my CYV backyard. I suggested that if the developer wanted to restrict dogs on "common" areas, then perhaps he should consider adding a few more real dog parks.
While I was having this conversation two more Community Watch trucks pulled up to help with the patrol. Is this good way to be spending your amenity fees?????
