One Fine Acre - 2023 4H Steer Project Update

[farmerjan]

The restricted covenants were put in place by the former landowner of the big farm that was split up into these different parcels. Her place is also part of the original farm. We had to clean up some non-running vehicles that were parked in a grove of trees, that we use for parts, and did some other stuff so that he was "in compliance". But she is claiming that we can not park "farm use" vehicles or trailers that we use in the farming operation. They must be "garaged". State code says we can have them, and the "box trailer" from a "tractor trailer" that is parked on the side of the barn away from her house that she cannot see from her house....we use it for storage too. It's a long convoluted mess, and if we cannot have ours outside, then we are going to go after her for her horse trailer being outside... a "trailer" is a trailer.... the lawyer says it is ridiculous.... but just enough to be aggravating and cost us money.

Yes, Bill would be very welcome to "RESOLVE" this situation.....in a permanent manner

Those kind of things are so petty but happen too often. Wish you luck resolving this one.

@One Fine Acre I am sorry about the buck. It is hard to make that call, but it is the responsible thing to do. In today's society, responsibility seems to be a thing of the past. You are raising a wonderful daughter and teaching her the hard decisions in life.

@farmerjan I loathe and despise people like that. She must have nothing to do with her empty life. Good luck on the fight, hope you whup her good in court. What about a petition from all the other neighbors who WANT cell service? Take it around and get it signed, then present it in court.

@Baymule in less than a week, my son did the petition thing, had over 100 signatures, that were presented to the planning and zoning meeting. There was a 2-2 vote, that will go to the board of supervisors. Which is to say they don't recommend it but have to pass it on. The 2 women on the board voted against, saying that they understood the need but that there must be a better place without impacting the "view" and all this. Unfortunately, the lawyer for Verizon was not very effective that night and come to find out is going to be leaving the firm. There is some legal wrangling going on there, but the other ones that have been working on this are really trying to get their ducks back in a row for the next meeting. In the meantime, we are dealing with the lawsuit in court. It is against my son directly, trying to say the covenants do not allow it, and unless they name Verizon in the lawsuit, their hands are tied. But we are working on it. It is taking alot of mental energy though and is very disheartening.
Yes, she is a witch, and has nothing else to do with her time and money. She has made alot of enemy's, yet has a small core group of close neighbors in the "upper-class " development convinced that this will destroy the views of the neighborhood. Why should they care if no one else has Cell service???? They have theirs..... The thing is, since they all have cell service, they think that they are just fine; and it is of no consequence if others do not have it and that fire and rescue are not important for those of us that do not have it. I wish just one of them would have an accident on the back side of the hill where there is no service and have to sit pinned in a vehicle, or have a heart attack where there is no service and have to be at the mercy of some passerby to come upon them and then have to go call from a place they can get service, or a residence somewhere....
It will take a tragic event for someone like her to get reasonable. Her husband had a heart attack recently, but they were within service so got help in a timely manner. So us "nobody's" in the boondocks, are just up sh#ts creek.... Tough luck. You know it's not like the tower is a giant purple eyesore.... she just doesn't want her "view" to be "ruined" for the sake of helping a few others...
It's going to destroy the value of their homes is one they are using also....

You know, if you find the "right" people, she just might end up having an "accident."

Our first doe due to kid is Zenith on or around Feb 14th. She's a FF. The kids will have a superstar pedigree.
Zenith is Zamia x Valiant. She's bred to Vivaldi.
But, you know how that goes.
They might end up looking like this.
