This is not the web site for the
Sprague Street Neighborhood Association.
It was here at one time, now it is gone. We were proud to have created it, and would have been even prouder to see the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association grow and develop it's online community presence.
Shortly after the launch of the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association web site their President requested that the web site be shut down. What might have been a wonderful community resource has now been lost.
This is the story of a community web site, and the husband and wife team who labored tirelessly to create it. This is our story. This is a story of broken promises. For all of our efforts, and in spite of several email messages praising our work, the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association refused to pay us what they had agreed, by contract, to pay.
If you've ever had the experience of not being paid for the work you've done, then you can certainly understand the disappointment, hurt and yes, anger that we've been feeling. Now imagine how you might feel if in addition to not being paid, your reputation and ethics were being challenged.
This web space will hold the detailed account of our struggle to collect what the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association owes us. You will find everything here, our web site design and hosting proposal, the email messages between the parties, the Court papers we filed and the papers filed against us.
When this series of unfortunate events is finally over, there will be no real "winners". The Sprague Street Neighborhood Association will have spent much more in legal and court fees in attempts to back out of their contractural obligations and discredit our good name.
We will have spent several times what the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association owed to us, just to pay the legal fees to protect and defend our good name and spotless reputation.
In the end the real losers will be the people who live in the homes which the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association claims to serve. It will be the home owners, the husbands and wives, the children both young and old, grand-ma and grand-pa and potential home buyers looking for that "ideal" community who will not get the attractive, resource rich community web site that they were promised.
As I mentioned earlier, this web site is about broken promises. Those made to you, the families represented by the Sprague Street Neighborhood Association, and those made to us, the husband and wife team from ThinkTech Design who put our best efforts forward for your community.
We do not wish to impose on anyone's time, but if you wouldn't mind spending
a little bit of it to read through this story and presentation we would really appreciate it.
