We,
the residents of Lexington Plantation, have had the unpleasant fortune of
seeing an increase in crime within our neighborhood. The lack of security
within the community has led to numerous vehicle break-ins and individuals that
do not live within Lexington Plantation, driving through our neighborhood and
staking out homes that are either occupied by homeowners or are newly built.
This type of activity cannot and will not be tolerated within our neighborhood.
After
numerous attempts by the residents of Lexington Plantation to contact the
homeowners association (HOA), Little & Young, we are consistently ignored
with no returned phone calls and no action taken by the HOA to try and resolve
any of the issues brought forth. The HOA consistently says that it is at
the discretionof the developer to make the changes in the security
situation. As homeowners, we pay a HOA fee each and every month.
There should be sufficient funds within the HOA fee account to make some
changes and implement a 24 hour 7 day a week security team of at least 2
members for 8 hours per shift for 3 shifts per day. Also, a security gate
should be installed that will allow unprecedented access by homeowners that own
homes within the limits of Lexington Plantation.
If individuals wish to have visitors, they mustcall the front gate
security guard and give them the individual's name. Once said individual
arrives at the gate they MUST show the security officer a driver’s license and
the security guard will write down the name of the individual/individuals
within the vehicle, also the security officer will write down the license plate
number and make and model of the vehicle along with the address that the
vehicle will be visiting. This will limit the amount of unwanted people
entering our neighborhood and causing the homeowners within Lexington
Plantation less stress and worry for their families and properties that they
have spent their hard earned money to procure.
This will also decrease the
amount ofcalls placed to the Harnett County Sheriff's office bythe
residents of Lexington Plantation. Failing to take action on the issues brought
forth within this petition could and will cause the homeowners within Lexington
Plantation to file a formal lawsuit against the Homeowners Association Little
& Young, and the developer for Lexington Plantation.
