12/3/2017 To: Jesse Malsom Voyager Village General Manager, 28851 Kilkare Road, Danbury, WI 54830 CC: Town of Jackson, Burnett County, 4742 County Road A, Webster, WI 54893-883 Burnet county Public Health, 7410 County Road K, Suite 280, Siren, WI 54872 It is not easy case about my non-adequate neighbor Craig Hawkins. He has medical problems also aggravated by alcohol and drug. His yard is in continuous disorder threatening contamination of all around by spreading plastic wraps, paper and cans blowing by wind, including to my yard. During raining and snow melting it can also contaminate groundwater. Voyager Village administration suggested help when he got from hospital after seizures, bringing him dumpster, but he did nothing. Then VV volunteers cleaned his yard garbage into dumpster. He arrived, pulled few things form dumpster and that is it. Now his yard looks as dump side again - pretending to garage continuous sale of unknown origin stuff. His attempt to use his construction wood to make picnic tables failed, but he used road shoulder for his display. Voyager Village people cleaned the road moving stuff to his yard now. His girl friend was throwing rubbish over the road from his yard. He used to disappear for months leaving his up to six cats behind. Now he left and his cats wondering around. Humane society refused to take care about those cats, saying that coyotes and owl will take natural care about those cats. I was feeding them time to time. Craig was threatening to kill me twice using dirty language. Last time he did that after he was burning something in his yard with loud like gun shots sounds and I called police and fire guard arrived and talked to Craig. Then he was yelling from his yard promising to kill me. I consider that as a not real threat, but as his non adequate nature. He also was burning plastic with corresponding smell. Police officer talked to me and asked to notify him about any problem and not to confront Hawkins by myself. Definitely Craig has rights to be on his property, but he has duties to keep property in order and behave himself. Seems he was not paying electrical bills and last his presence was in full darkness. Don't know about his tax and association fee bills. Last spring he has connected his extension cord in my absence without permission, also has broken the outlet. His alcoholic father used his lot as a landfill rising part of his yard by trash including plastic buckets, old tires and other rubbish, contaminating the lot. Craig is continuing that type of behavior. Don't know what kind of levers town, Voyager village and county have to address those problems. Only decontamination of Craig Hawkins property can cost dozen thousands, and he, definitely, can't afford that even would willing put his lot in order. Soon his trash will be covered with snow and will look better until snow will melt and filter through all that trash to the ground water. honestly tried to help him at the beginning, but his behavior made normal relations impossible. Please, take care at least about no healthy environment conditions of his yard. Such neighboring may prompt me to abandon living at Voyager Village, despite I generally, like area and I met many good people in VV.
