Folks, how about a grammar and spelling check before hitting the "submit reply" button?

Apparently learned "common core" English, or possibly ESL

I find it a little hard to believe there is a guy in his garage, standing next to his sprinkle controls, watching for dog walkers.

There is no shortage of jerks, even in The Villages, although there are fewer of them here.

Homes have a 13 foot easement. Get over yourselves.

Taltarzac725 10-13-2021 10:05 AM

Dog Parks

Dudley Canine Park and Rupert Canine Park are not far from Gonzalaz Lane even if their hours are limited when you have a pooch that needs to go out early, middle and at the end of the day. And sometimes a lot more than that.

1) Where does it state that, in writing?
2) Easement for whom and what purpose???

WOW!!! that's a lot to unpack here. Time to drill down on this. Background: According to Sumter County Gonzalez Ln is a dead end street and there are only 11 homes...10 plus Mary's. All but 3 homes have limited street frontage....Here's what was posted by Mary.

1. Mary Shields...the poster claims her "neighbors need advice...(Mary does not need advice)
2. Then in the next sentence, Mary claims "One of our neighbors is an issue". (it is vague if the offending party even lives on Gonzalez)
3. Then in the next sentence, Mary testifies these problem neighbors (who the neighbor needs advice about...not her) have some sort of remote control device, and someone has actually observed them activating this remote device triggering water sprinklers....but she is not specific on who actually observed it.
4. Then in the next sentence Mary injects there is a vulnerable adult who walks her dog. We only know this person walks by the offending neighbor, but it is unclear where this is.
5. Then Mary states an unknown group of neighbors are now fearful of these offenders to the point they move to the other side of the street. She does not specify if these are additional neighbors, or the ones who need help prompting the OP, or if this even happens on Gonzalez.
6. Finally Mary makes the claim the offending neighbor is now stalking other people....from the privacy of their own home.

NOPE!!!! way to inconsistent. Kind of like "many people are saying" ....I call B.S. on the whole post:blahblahblah:

Ahh.....Definition of a "Karen"
WHAT DOES KAREN MEAN?

Karen is a pejorative slang term for an obnoxious, angry, entitled, and often racist middle-aged white woman who uses her privilege to get her way or police other people’s behaviors.

As featured in memes, Karen is generally stereotyped as having a blonde bob haircut, asking to speak to retail and restaurant managers to voice complaints or make demands, and being an anti-vaxx , Generation X soccer mom.

In 2020, Karen spread as a label used to call out white women who were captured in viral videos engaging in what are widely seen as racist acts.

When I walk my dogs I try to teach them to get out of the street when a car or golf cart or even a biker, so we step up just outside of the curb and wait till they pass. This is the first time I gave heard of remote control sprinklers or motion sprinklers and if it’s the sole purpose of trying to keep people and dogs off “ your grass” shame on you. REALLY you don’t have anything else to do. Wtf. First of all that’s NOT YOUR Property . Find your property markers there about 30 ft. From the center of the road. I would do more investigating as to when it comes on and call the town to see if it’s allowed on THEIR property.

It is your property.:
Property Owners' Rights and Utility Easements | legalzoom.com

"Property owners have rights regarding their utility easements. The property owner owns the land with the easement and must pay taxes on the easement area. Usually, the utility companies don't pay anything for the use of the easement.

The utility company has the right to use the land to maintain and repair their lines, pipes, or equipment. Property owners, however, can take a utility company to court if a company abuses the easement."

Well written post. Bigger problem is OP should be concerned about is a diagnosed dementia person is allowed out on their own. We have 3 diagnosed dementia neighbors, if one is out alone, anyone who sees them contacts their spouse, or caregiver immediately, and try’s to keep them safe until help arrives.

As far as the sprinkler issue in the road, on my walk this morning 13 homes with their sprinklers were watering parts of the road. Anyone who has total control of their sprinkler water must be a genius, or never run the system

HORNET 10-13-2021 03:25 PM

It’s not your property, stay off

HORNET 10-13-2021 03:36 PM

Easements only mean that you can’t put anything permanent at that distance. Property owner owns and pays taxes to the street or sidewalk and has to maintain that area. Call Sumter or Lake County Police and find out about trespassing laws.

Another justification for trespassing

The reality is, you cannot time when a dog does what a dog does...

One problem "non-dog owners" are missing is that when the sun beats down on the street, the temp can cause serious burns to a dog's feet. Try walking barefoot just off your driveway if you don''t believe me. Walking along the edge of the grass is the only safe place for them.

And I agree, those who don't clean up after their dogs are jerks.

Street too hot? No sidewalk? Dog park not conveniently located next door? Let's take fluffy for a walk through the neighborhood dog park and toilet, aka neighbor's yards[U] without ever ASKING for permission to do so. Heaven forbid, the neighbor had the nerve to show their displeasure. How rude of them to not realize dog owners are "entitled" to use other folks homes and property for their own purposes.

Is my sarcasm too subtle? If you don't own that property then you keep off of it unless you are invited. Don't trespass. If your parents were any good then they taunt you that as a child.

We learned to avoid her as much as possible, but she was a sad, mean-spirited woman and we felt sorry for her. All I can say about someone who intentionally would turn on their sprinklers on a woman with dementi is that it is sad. They need to get a hobby and remember that this is supposed to be the “friendliest” community. As a dog owner, I make sure my dog does not go onto anyone’s lawn. It is a matter of respect. I have a neighbor who allows her dog to poop on my front yard. She is an elderly lady who is sweet. I don’t stay up at night dwelling on it and so I let it go. Life is short.

Thanks so much ! You are right on💕

charlieo1126@gmail.com 10-13-2021 07:44 PM

If you have been reading the post after every body weighed in on how badly the woman with dementia had been treated we were informed that she doesn’t have dementia she is just older Like Me 82 but we haven’t gotten an answer yet on whether the neighbors are still feeling stalked and are sad and this is my last post on this I couldn’t resist it one more time lol

237 (now 238) posts to get across a simple concept, that you shouldn't allow your dog to poop on other people's private property?

It’s time for a Dr Phil intervention or getting Jerry Springer involved.

brianherlihy 10-15-2021 07:28 AM

I do when I post, but often things change after hitting the submit button. I have no idea why or how it happens, but it does. I use an LG tablet but that should make no difference.

fdpaq0580 10-15-2021 11:55 AM

Not just poop.

Shouldn't be on the grass at all! Not on the grass, can't pee or poop on it! Owner, control your dog!

Bunny1 10-15-2021 12:10 PM

Thank you, thank you to everyone who posted it's wrong to let your dog pee and poop on neighbors lawns!
Maybe dog owners who do - will get the message - we dont want your dog's mess on our lawn!!

"people's private property" does not go to the street (& I'm not talking easement)

people don't know where the property pins are located............it may not be where your sprinkler heads are located...........might be surprised

False.

eyc234 10-15-2021 03:51 PM

If you are walking your dog for exercise let them walk in the road, on a side walk or at the dog park. If you are taking your dog to pee and defecate let the do it in your own yard. Walk them around your yard until they do their business and you can decide if you want to clean it up or not. Just keep them off of other peoples property. Can I come and pee in your pool because I do not want to dirty mine? It will go through the filter and chlorine will clean it, no problem, right!!

brianherlihy 10-16-2021 01:38 PM

now i have my new dog i will take down the street to the home of the guy hows dog poop on my lawn and let him poop on his lawn:a040::a040::a040::a040:
