Editor,

Our family owns a section of wooded undeveloped acreage on East Harbor Road in Freeland. A county road, Ander Park, services this property. Our son owns the farthest five acres of the property.

He was selling and had an interested buyer. They had put down earnest money and the transaction was in escrow and ready to close.

One day, the buyer paid a visit to the property and discovered someone had used the county road next to the property as their personal garbage dump. He immediately backed out of the deal, willing to relinquish his earnest money.

I don’t understand people who feel entitled and think it’s OK to dump their garbage and dilapidated furniture and expect others to deal with it. In a perfect world, these people would be apprehended and fined a huge amount of money.

Thank you.
