So Advice to handle this situation
 
Update....So I don't know what to say here.....my buddy arranged a golf game in Gainesville and as We pulled out we didnt see or hear our friend. We kinda laughed surmising he must have read TOTV and took a hint. Well the Mrs. Calls and he was rushed to hospital after we left not in good shape. I hope we get to see him again.

We have a new neighbor for about two weeks now who likes to clean his driveway with a electric blower at first light every day Sundays included. The neighborhood "mayor" was sent in to talk with him but he states he has medical condition where he can't get hot thus early morning activities. Are there restrictions on noise before or after hours? If so what are times? How about restrictions on everyday as once a week is annoying but we could live with it.

Any noise that is bothering you can be called to the local police department. However--really? Why not just explain to your neighbor what is going on, that you are bothered by the noise. Maybe he will stop the early times and do activities after the sun goes down?

Good Luck!

Or you could ask to borrow his blower to do your driveway and accidentally run it over with your car.
Oops

Very insensitive of this neighbor. Maybe he should use a broom instead of the blow job.

maybe it needs to be clean enough to eat on..not sure what would cause you to need to blow off your drive everyday, i am with you OP why the need, and if heat bothers you that much why move to flordia

Maybe he will settle down after living in TV for a while. I hope so for your sake. That really sucks....I mean blows.

wondering what time the lawn people start in the neighborhood and how many days a week they are there. seems to me that in my neighborhood lawns are done every day of the week but sunday any time between sunup and sundown.

if it is really unbearable, perhaps each neighbor can take a turn at cleaning the man's driveway for him at a time deemed reasonable.

I can't understand what needs to be blow off f a driveway every day Does he have some live oaks or something that sheds onto his driveway o a daily basis?

Sounds like a control freak problem.

Most of the lawn companies in our neighborhood seem to start their machinery at 8 AM. I'm a night hawk. I'm retired and I don't want to ever get up early again. :mornincoffee:
I find ear plugs are a good solution.

Topspinmo 05-23-2013 05:55 AM

How early?? Really should of posted time of the activity??? Some people 11 AM is early.... I would think after 8:00 Am would be to unreasonable. Now if it's the crack of dawn then Most will consider that too early including myself being sleeping for me 6:00am, But I have worked for 50 years or more of manual labor where expected to be in to work early and on time... I never do anything before 8:00am or after 9:30 PM around the house and I don't have property owners few feet away.. Usually 8:00am or after when commerical lawn maintenance are out and about.....

I like the idea of running over the blowers with a truck. Seriously though that is beyond rude.

Uptown Girl 05-23-2013 06:28 AM

Another "seriously" catagorical question.... your neighborhood has a designated "Mayor"??

Perhaps you should invite 'Keepingitreal's' neighbor's band to come for practice one of these bright shiny mornings!
