Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Pet policy

[RPD-Comcast (rpdowds]

Well, OK:  What if you "allow" a member to play his 800 watt RMS stereo with 
his windows open?  Are you, the Association, now in violation of the 
neighborhood noise ordinance?   What if you have never considered this matter 
one way or the other, and neither "allow" nor "prohibit" such behavior?  Is the 
Association still responsible?

Or, what if member is growing pot, or belladonna, or poppies in your communal 
garden?  Speaking personally, I might have chance of recognizing maybe one, but 
probably not the other two.  Is your Association's Managing Board obligated to 
take a course in controlled substances, and patrol the garden more carefully?

I see people run red lights all the time.  I have a cell phone, and I can read 
the license plate.  What is my duty in such matters?

I will check with my Association's attorney, because I find this very 
interesting, maybe even life-changing.
