Trashy Yard

[Route Driver]

I drive a day route for a trucking company and take 49B on my way to Blytheville 3 times a week. What is going on with that yard that is so trashed up you can't even see the house? It's right before you get to that church at the end of Pine Log Road. I've notice a huge dumpster sitting out there and it doesn't look like anything is disappearing from the yard. Somebody should report it as an environmental hazard.

I have lived in Brookland all of my life and it has been that way as long as I can remember...

[Brooklandite]

That's nothing there is one on CR 928, the yard is full and so is the ditches surrounding the house also down CR 945 several houses looks like dump sites. Can't understand people leaving their yards like that.

[Brooklandite]

Mostly pure laziness on their parts.

OMG that house is horrid!! i have always thought that they needed to take a dozer and doze it down!! they have little kids toys in the yard but how would they ever play when it is covered over with junk and trash!! As far as the dumpster don't know why they have it since they don't use it obviously!! i live down the highway from it and have to see it daily........uck!!

[kat]

The mayor never does anything about trashy houses in this town. I mean he lives in a trailer him selve with a broken down jeep...need I say more..

[brookland citizen]

I too have wondered why nothing has ever been done about that house. What an eye sore. One time I called city hall about some junk in my neighbor's yard and asked if there was a code enforcement officer for the city and the girl who answered the phone said she would go take a look at the place. I mean, who is she? Obviously not code enforcement because nothing was ever done and I still have to look at this junk farm equipment that's rusted out in my neighbor's yard and looks like it's going to fall over into my yard. Any ideas who to take this up with?

[OMG]

I am sooo glad I live in the coutry and don't have to deal with piddly crap like this! WHO CARES!! Get a life!

[brookland citizen]

Who cares? The people who have to live near it and look at it every day. That's who cares. What if someone had piles of rat infested junk next to your house? You would care.

[OMG]

That is why I made the choice to live in the country...no nosy bossy neighbors and nobody telling me how much I have to mow.

We do live in the country!!! This house is on the main highway and looks like it should be condemed. Let alone have a child live there. I think if maybe several people complain to the mayor or to the police cheif. We care what it looks like around our town, even though we live outside the city limits. This house has been this way for at least 14 years!! Maybe it needs to be brought up at the city council meeting. i will call Shelby and inquire

[trash]

At least 14 years? I'm 21 and as long as I can remember it's been like that.

[OMG]

They bought the property and live OUTSIDE the city limits...they can do whatever they want to with it. Also, I don't think calling anybody about is going to do any good...I have seen it looking like that for at least 25 years. It will only make you look like a trouble starting cry baby. Get over it and worry about something that actually matters!

[Matt Murphy]

Just ignore OMG. it's very easy to say hurtful things when you can hide behind a computer screen.
i just think it is sad how you get off on making other people angry. you really need a life my friend.

[OMG]

Um...what I have I said that is in any way hurtful? And who have I made angry? All I have said is that it's THEIR yard and they can do with it what THEY want. That is what is great about being a property owner!

[Someone who can spell]

OMG did you go to school? hole town, yould, medows, distright, dought, bubole, pepoles, and on and on. Take pride in what education you did get and at least spell these easy words properly! Yet you spell neighborhoods correctly! Are you lazy and don't give a damn about what you do or say and have the attitude "who cares" about everything in life? You come across as a lazy bum.

Learn how to spell!. Good grief! I live in Brookland and take great pride in knowing that my yard is not a disgrace. For all we know that house with all of the s**t in the front yard is probaby yours.

Thank you, I do live in Brookland, and i do have pride in my yard and my home. It is not the
Sage Meadows house but it is paid for and does not look like a dump, and i am not afraid to invite people to my home because i have s..t in the yard! It may be their property but they should have enough dignity to respect the people that live around them, their families, and the town itself!! By the way i think Brookland is a great little town, and at least it is not as bad as some other places. Have a little respect for your town, even if it is small. That is why i chose it, and i like where my home is.
