The mayor himself was the first one ticketed wasn’t he??? And I think one or two of the council members as well, it’s not a matter of pick and choose “who” they want. They see a property in disrepair or unkept, they ticket it.

Trust me, I can work all day on my property doing things too, but if I’m not getting rid or cleaning up the things that go the ticket to begin with, it’s not going to do any good.

But, I agree….It is fall Cool weather why do the churches not all decide to get all together and submit all the names of folks around town they think needs help in cleaning up and ALL THE CHURCHES work together and divide to work over a couple of weekends to help the elderly and disabled. I think that would be wonderful!

I can see all the churches (Abundant Life to Mt. Zion) working together, that would show unity and caring in the town!

I’ve noticed whenever someone thinks WWJD, they sometimes use the question to tell others what they must do rather than as intended use it to decide their personal course of action.

or so it seems to me

As was said, not one had called the mayor for him to help them find someone. There are groups to help people but you have to care enough to call someone to get the help. They don’t just go out looking for you junk. Where is that christian help? Love thy brother as thy self. Instead of like you., jessie, Yes WWJD not sit and complain like you have but HELP these people. And I think the town has got a code on a piece of it’s property. And they fixed it.

If the homes and yards are not in good repair by now, either it’s because of laziness or maybe the person is elderly and just simply needs some help?

I would think that the members of the local community churches could reach out and volunteer to help their fellow man and their hometown at the same time. Have a community work day once a month. Go to the city counsel, request a name from the list and go and help them to get it right. Your good deeds will not go unnoticed I promise. WWJD
