Traffic and parking always present a challenge; try to find a spot in the large parking lots just outside of the residential area.<br />
<br />
For this special weekend, the City cheerfully waives the usual permit and fee requirements for residential yard sales Friday + Saturday + Sunday. NO ONE is authorized to charge any fee or to demand any donation from sellers. Call 911 if hassled.<br />
<br />
<br />

<div style="font-family: "humanst521 bt"; margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: #ffd966;">* The formula for calculating the date evolved from special requests from emergency medical services and other public protection groups. The Bristol Motor Speedway races and the Appalachian Fair usually coincide; adding the Tree Streets Yard Sale to that combination stretched resources too thin. Labor Day weekend is a challenge all on its own and adding the yard sale to that weekend also stretched resources too thin. So the Tree Streets Yard Sale now always occurs on the first weekend after the Bristol races and Appy Fair, unless that weekend is Labor Day weekend. The City's permit and fee waiver automatically covers the first wide-open, uncluttered, non-holiday weekend after the Fair/races.</span></div>

<br />

<span style="color: lime; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>MEMBERSHIP in SNO -- "a private club of neighbors that don't want you in it" ?</b></span></h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;">To join or not to join?</span></u><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Without a doubt, SNO was instrumental years ago in convincing the City to rebuild, rather than relocate, South Side School. SNO also played a big role in getting zoning changes which encourage renovation of fine old structures. The founders were ethical, friendly, warm-hearted people. SNO's value in the past cannot be questioned. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What about today? Does SNO foster neighborhood cohesiveness and goodwill, or does it spawn the opposite? Does SNO voice the consensus of Southside's 3000 citizens, or has it become 'a private club of neighbors' which operates like 'a bridge club'?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Does SNO live up to its name : Southside <span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u>Neighborhood</u></b> </span>Organization? >> Can every resident become a full-fledged member? <span style="color: lime;"><b>NOPE</b>.</span> Renters (who probably make up a majority of the population) CANNOT vote.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Does SNO live up to its name : Southside Neighborhood <b><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><u>Organization</u>?</span></b> >> Does SNO now make available to the neighborhood its Minutes, Agendas, full monthly Treasury Reports? <span style="color: lime;"><b>NOPE</b>.</span> Does it bind itself to Roberts Rules of Order or some other procedural guide? <span style="color: lime;"><b>NOPE</b>;</span> Roberts Rules (and its requirements for notice and hearing and free access to information) were ditched in 2011.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The <span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>SNO Secretary and President are mother & daughter.</b></span> These two offices are designed to check-and-balance one another. Why has SNO not chosen one of Southside's other 3000 residents for either of these offices?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Are SNO meetings a pleasure to attend? Is every Southside resident given a warm welcome and a reasonable opportunity to express his/her point of view and concerns?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: yellow;">WHAT A GROUP SAYS ABOUT ITSELF IN OPEN COURT CARRIES GREAT WEIGHT. </span></b> Read this, then make your own decision about what SNO has become >></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">MR. SHERROD: I represent the Southside Neighborhood Organization and the individuals.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">[T]his lawsuit is basically a nuisance case filed by somebody who wants to be in a neighborhood club and they don’t want him in it. And it’s like if you want to be in my mother’s <span style="color: yellow;"><b>bridge club</b></span> and <span style="color: yellow;"><b>they don’t want you in there</b>. </span>I’m sorry, you can’t sue to get in. It doesn’t matter that, you know, they’ve taken part or done something .... [interrupted by Chancellor Johnson]</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And it’s, basically, he wants to be in a club that he’s <span style="color: yellow;"><b>not welcome</b>.</span> And I don’t think there’s any legal basis for a person wanting to be in <span style="color: yellow;"><b>a private club of neighbors that don’t want you in it</b>,</span> and so he’s been removed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And we have a problem with him trying to bully his way in, you know, an issue that he’s <span style="color: yellow;"><b>really just not wanted and it doesn’t matter why. </b>So that would be our position.</span></span><br />

I
will forever regret letting myself be duped into assisting the SNO
Treasurer with 'fee collection' at the 2010 Yard Sale. I was assured by
the 2010 Yard Sale Chairperson that all was kosher. I was led to believe
that I was doing a good deed for the Neighborhood. ~ Not until almost
a year later, when it was my turn to manage the Yard Sale, did I learn
from City Hall that there was no excuse for SNO's collection of fees
from all sellers (thousands of dollars). Before I could successfully put
an end in 2011 to the SNO collection scheme, others suddenly took
charge. ~ Most sincerely, I apologize to the individuals who
surrendered 'fees' in 2010 because of my efforts. If necessary to obtain
forgiveness from those afflicted by me personally (eastern Pine
Street), I will return those 2010 'fees' from my own pocket upon
individual request. ~ Older, bruised and wiser, I am now the
disaffected SNO past president, with even greater concern and goodwill
for the 3000 hard-working people of Southside.<br />

<dd>Hi Liz ~ The most certain way is to call 911 (which urges JC
citizens to call for much more than just emergencies, unlike most
locales) and report that you were deceived. City Hall is well aware of
the situation. ~ Best wishes<br />
