RESOLVING DISPUTES IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PEOPLE INVOLVED Fran watched, feeling her anger rise, as once again the neighbor's children and dog traipsed across her lawn, cutting a path to their own yard. "Why don't they have any respect for others property? "she th ought. "Neither their parents nor these kids seem to understand that I don't like picking up the trash they drop on their way across my lawn. And I've scolded the children and told the parents several times," she grumbled. "Anyway, what are these kids doing using my lawn as a sidewalk when the street is only 3 feet away? Maybe I ought to do something to let these people know I mean business!" she said out loud. Fran is angry and frustrated. She knows she has to do something. Call the police? Sue her neighbors in court? Lawyers are costly and the courts are slow. What's left for Fran to do? The situation could have involved a tenant, who decided to withhold rent until repairs were made to the apartment. The tenant has been told eviction would result if rent wasn't paid, whether repairs were made or not. The tenant feels this is unfair. The landlord feels the tenant is unreasonable. And what should the owner of an animal do when the veterinarian misdiagnosed the animal's condition, jeopardizing the life of the animal, and then received a bill for it? Is the owner responsible for the bill? Should the veterinarian expect full payment? If you find yourself in an unresolvable situation, consider MEDIATION. If you know of someone struggling to find a solution to an aggravating problem, do the person a favor. Suggest MEDIATION to them! Fran, the tenant and the animal owner could have contacted the Brooklyn Center Mediation Project for help in resolving their problems. When they called the Mediation Project, they would have found a friendly and very helpful staff person who would discuss the situation with them and explain the mediation process to them. If Fran decided to try using mediation, a staff person at the Mediation Project would write or call Fran's neighbors, explain that a complaint has been received, provide information about mediation and invite the party to mediate. Before too long, Fran and her neighbors might be sitting down with a third -party mediator to begin working through the problem. The mediator would help Fran and neighbors become aware of what the problems were on both sides and encourage the partiestoairtheir opinions. The parties then begin working onasolution both can live with. Fran and her neighbors can develop respect for each other and feel satisfied to have worked towards resolving their problems. Mediation has worked already for some of your Brooklyn Center neighbors! Mediation is working today across the nation. This service is available free of charge to any Brooklyn Center resident who needs and wants it. The process is simple and relatively quick in achieving results. The Brooklyn Center Mediation Project can be reached between the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, by calling 341 -2828. Call for more information!
