Can my community association fine me for parking my pop-up trailer on the county road in front of my

The trailer is legally licenced and with current tags. The association has sent me a registered letter stating that they will fine me if I do not move it out of the community. The association by-laws state that "Trailers shall not be parked on any lot or parked upon any streets or common areas." The street in front of my house is owned by the county (Anne Arundel County, Maryland). Can the association have jurisdiction over this county road within the community? I had the trailer parked in my back yard behind my house. I am surrounded by woods and the only people who could see it are people looking in my back yard. I know they have jurisdiction over my lot in the community. So I have to move it out of my backyard and I want to move it on the county street in front of my house. So do they have juridiction over the county road within the community?

I don't really know the details of your circumstance. But,. most streets covered by community association rules are owned by municipalities. Presumably, you bought the property knowing what the restrictions are so you have to abide by them. I don't see the difference if it is a public road or a private one. It is in the community.

Now, whether they have the will and the might and the resources to take you to court to collect the fine is another matter.

Yes they do. And they can enforce their jurisdiction in small claima court if you refuse to pay the assessment.

You had access to the document before you moved in. You made an "informed decision" to move there and to abide by the association's rules, of which you are now a member.

Even if you move it to your back yard, you are in violation.
The community association probably thinks they have jurisdiction over public roads and may even list it in their by-laws. The fact is a public road is just that, public. Check with the county about parking there and get documentation of the laws about parking on the street. Then send a copy to the association. Also, see if you can get a lawyer to write a letter to the association stating legal action againt them. A lot of people don't realize, that sometimes just a letter from a lawyer will solve a problem. You may find that all you need is the threat of litigation and a lawyer won't charge you an arm and a leg just for a letter.

While conducting surveillance in some areas, I've been approached by community associations who have told me I couldn't park in front of people's houses. I point out to them that the street in front of a residence isn't that persons property and that it is a public roadway and as long as I'm not impeding traffic, I'm free to park. I then invite them to call the police so I will have documetation for my company to use to bring a lawsuit against the association. This has always worked because it's true.

Health Education in the GLBT Community?

I work in the healthcare and I'm involved in various healthcare initiatives and groups that are relatively mainstream - the Heart Association, Diabetes Association, American Cancer, etc. You see their information everywhere, they provide screenings at health fairs, they target schools, businesses, etc.

However, when I attend any type of a GLBT community function, such as Pride fair, whether in my own community or larger communities like San Francisco, I rarely see any presence from these organizations. I see agencies related to mental health, substance abuse, HIV, etc. -- all important issues within the GLBT community -- but it seems as though there's no effort to provide "general" health info to the GLBT community. More people will die of cancer and heart disease, but you don't see that info. It's seems like there could be a stronger focus on linking health ed resources with the GLBT community, or should we assume GLBT people will find that info on their own?

Well, you make an excellent point. LGBT people are just as prone to these medical conditions.

Perhaps these organizations don't want to be associated with a "gay" event. However, I have seen medical associations that cater to LGBT clients - and not just about HIV - at such events, so perhaps they cover such topics.

Health Education in the GLBT Community?new myspace myspace.com

I suppose these organisations don't see any specific links, for example their is no higher rate of heart disease in the glbt community so they don't feel their is a need to target information at them.

I guess it is assumed that this information is accessed by glbt people through the same means as a straight person access this information or is provided with it.

An interesting point though, even to not have tailored advertising to the community large events would still be an opertunity to provide information to people regaurdless of if the demographic would be at more risk than another.
so take the matters into your own hands and start to help make that change, I am sure there are plenty of others who feel the same as you do

A community college will not offer science classes that require lab hours if they don't have a lab. They can't even offer chemistry classes because lab hours are a requirement to complete those classes. It doesn't matter the size of the school, all the community colleges have to fulfill some standards in order to be legally recognized.

CDL training: community college vs. non-community college?

I ask this because the community college near me that offers CDL training is a very ghetto community college. I think this is the only community college in my area that offers CDL training. I might be looking into other colleges that aren't too far and perhaps maybe any CDL training institutions would suit me better. How do I find the best CDL schools in my area? Yellow Pages?

CDL training: community college vs. non-community college?love girls myspace

You'll save money if you go to a community college. Their tuitions are set by the state, and they recieve funding from the state....so they're actually in it to TEACH YOU instead of make money :).

Roadmaster and the like....I've heard of "cdl schools" charging people upwards of 5000 dollars....versus a comm. college tuition of MAYBE 1500, possibly less depending on where you're located. And while some of the "cdl schools" will give you a decen education, SOME of them are truly in it to make money and push people through as quickly as possible, whether they're qualified or not. When choosing a school, look at class size and number of hours/miles YOU PERSONALLY will spend ON THE ROAD during training. Some of these places will have you sharing a truck with an instructor and 6 students for your road training and you'll maybe get an hour of driving a day.

Ask any driver trainer who works for a major company....and they'll tell you hands down, students who come from a vocational school or community college are usually MUCH better trained and prepared for the road....a lot of these Roadmaster-and-such graduates have spent maybe 10 hours behind the wheel and are frightening to witness.

Basically, the way I found a community college near me that offered truck driver training, is I did a google search for all the towns (AND Counties) within driving distance + I added the terms "community college commercial vehicle driving school". You can also try it with "vocational school" or "vo-tech"....most of your state run schools won't be in the Yellow Pages.

Also go to www.newbiedriver.com or any other trucking-related community chat boards, you can post questions about your specific area and how to find a community college that's in a better location, you may have luck that way.

Good luck

Questions about college and community college?

I always see in the movies how people make fun of community college and are embarassed to go there...i have really good grades but not good enough for scholorships and well finantially i may not be able to go to a university for the first year or so...

so my question is...

Is community college a bad choice? if i work hard i can make it into a university. but should i go to a community college for my basic classes and then transfer to a university.

my plan right now is to go to college to become an elementary school teacher (idk if thats relevant) oh and say i go to community college then a university to become a teacher, when i start applying for jobs does it look bad that i went to a community college? would they look past my application bc of this?

i really dont know alot about the whole college subject so if you could please clear up some of these questions...

Questions about college and community college?bad girls club

No, it won't look bad that you went to a community college. It's a good way to save money, especially if you can live at home. If you have decent grades, you can get into a 4-year school, but if you want to save money, community college is a good option. I wouldn't dismiss it.

Questions about college and community college?school myspace myspace.com

absolutely not. i went to a community college called lccc. i saved myself over $50,000. and i got a degree. i went for the same thing you are going for. when you go for a job they will not judge which college you went to. the only difference is you won't get the whole college experience because you won't be living on campus.
Well, its not going to look fantastic. Go there 2 years and transfer to a more prestegious college. They wont look at that, just where you graduated from.

But its not a completely black and white situation. When applying for a job, a person who went to Brown for 4 years is going to look more impressive than a community college grad. Look into state colleges. Very cheap for in state residents and you can live at home
I absolutely agree with eri. Community college is a great option for people who need to save money. Also, many employers will be impressed that you have both an Associates and Bachelors degree. Don't let anyone make you feel bad for your decision either. Community colleges often have a lot more support for their students than typical 4 year colleges which is an added benefit beyond the financial reasons. Also, if you get very good grades in college you may be able to find specific scholarships for transfer students. I know the 2 year college honor society provides scholarships to transfer students (after they leave the 2 year university). I would highly recommend it.
dont be silly, and there is nothing to feel ashamed about going to a community college! ignore those fools.....most of them wont even end up getting any further education themselves.

going to a comminuty college for two years before transferring to a higher university is very common...in fact, most of my friends are going to do that! it saves you money big time, and if you had bad grades in high school, it is your chance to make all that up!... basically, it is your second chance to a university. also, many students who dont feel ready to go to a four year college end up going community college. there can be many reasons why people do this, its not just the people who have bad grades, so dont worry about that :).

no, a community college isnt a bad choice at all....it is just as good, if not, maybe even better than skipping to a four-year university right away. they say that many times, community college transfers are better prepared for the challenges of a university than a high school graduate who attends a university right away.

girl, go for it! go to a community college, feel proud of yourself, dont worry, you will be caught up with the university juniors once you transfer to join them! just be sure to work hard...give it your best! and no, dont listen to idiots who make fun of community colleges...those community colleges are your path to a great university! good luck!
You probably won't have any courses taught by Nobel Prize winners at a community college. But guess what--you probably won't as a beginning student at a big research university, either! The big-name professors there mostly teach upper-division and graduate courses and do their research--they leave lower division courses to less-senior professors and graduate TA's. Even if you do have a great professor for a lower-division course at a university, you'll most likely be in a large class (I had one my sophomore year with over 1,000 students!) Most community college classes are small enough that you can actually interact and discuss with your classmates, and the instructor will even be able to learn your name!

Many of the faculty who teach at community colleges are there because teaching is more important to them than doing research. Many of them are very, very good at it. Campus life may not be what it is at a university where most of the students are18-25 years old and live on or near campus--but it won't be all that different from any 4-year commuter school with a student body that tends to be older. There will still most likely be student government, a newspaper, clubs, theater and musical performance groups, sports, etc. if that's important to you.

Nobody is going to look down on your resume because you went to a community college. If anything, a lot of schools will think that your experience is closer to that of a lot of their students, more than a privileged kid who went to an expensive college or university and never spent any time around people who weren't equally well-off.

Attending a community college and transerring to another community college?

I was wondering has anybody ever went to a community college and than transfered to another community college? I have been thinking about transferring to another community college because they have a major that I would be intrested in?

Attending a community college and transerring to another community college?stars myspace

I advise you to meet with an academic advisor at the community college of your choice before you transfer there, and make sure that the college you transfer to is nationally accredited. Only accredited college credits may be transferred to a four-year university should you wish to continue your education in the future.

Best wishes to you and congratulations on your continued success.

When will communities in the United States stop being referenced as "white community" and

Doesn't this characterization promote segregation? I thought that a community was a communty. When did it become a black and white thing? Where is our sense of a national cohesion of Americans? Do blacks want to be considered as seperate from whites as having their own community, culture, identity? What does that do for or against the United States as a country? A lot of questions I know.

I suppose from a sociological perspective society needs descriptors. If you look at the work of Foucalt and postmodernism, whatever society calls something is what it is. Yes the term no doubt does promote separate identities but can also work in reverse (king, queen, president). Grouping people together is a way of dealing with a vast population (consider schools) BTW it is not only the USA that has this issue
Well I lived in a white community, then they put in public housing. Along with the housing came trash in the yard like cheetos, beer bottles, chocolate milk cartons, needles, spray painted fences, people standing in the middle of the street stopping passing cars, loud stereos in residential neighborhoods, kids throwing rocks and breaking out windows, police not doing crap. I moved wasn't worth the trouble. So, I did like all other I moved to where there were snakes and other wildlife that I know certain people are scared of.

There's a saying that goes" Birds of a feather flock together" We humans are more comfortable with others who are like us and share our cultures. With the races, our cultures are blending more as time goes by. But there will always be those who resist other cultures. Even to the point of being hostile.
If this were a serious question, it would merit a serious answer, but you're merely a petulant rightwinger whining about those black folks and how they're at fault for white racism.

I suppose the Don Imus affair got you off on this little riff.
I agree it does created segregation, but the media is reflecting how society is. America is so diverse, yet still no segregated, I will never understand why. No one ever says "white community" they only say African American community when its about something negative. I think that we are all just people with different skin tones due to the climate in which our ancestors inhabited. We might have different cultures but at the end of the day we all want the same basic things.
