Junk in Yards

Walla Walla & College Place need to take care of the trash flowing out of garages, porches and yards. If they can't afford to water their lawns then do some landscaping that doesn't require much water. The one thing that I loved about this area was the pride people took in their homes and yards. We are letting people come in and trash their places. I think it is time this was addressed with some cleaning up or you get fines and it will be cleaned up. It is not right to keep your place up and in the next block is a garbage dump. Who's place will determine property value, the dump or mine? 15  out of 16 found this valuable. Do you?

I think a lot of them are rentals and the landlords need to be held responsible. 13  out of 13 found this valuable. Do you?

To landscape a yard, you need money. Therefore, how can people who cannot pay to keep their shoddy lawns watered be expected to shell out money for arid landscaping? Besides, maybe if we all stop watering our lawns, the whole town can look like a desert and the land prices would go down so the working poor can afford to live here rather than retired snowbirds who don't need their social security checks. 5  out of 6 found this valuable.
