Philip's portrait + Lambda and its codes

Lambda not enforcing some codes:  Pets code for example

There have been pets on Lambda property the last three times I stopped in.  I see pets there often.

I love pets.  I think they are good for their owners and for the rest of us. 

Nonetheless, Lambda has a code barring pets from its property. (lambdahouston.org)

I personally am glad no one is enforcing this code.  I wonder why it exists.

The point is, Lambda needs to rethink its current code.

There could be maybe a few well thought through codes, a list of House Keeping Requests,  and a list of desiderata.

I don't think we ought to be threatening to throw out anyone.  

Houston has plenty of laws already.

I  highly recommend that Lambda eliminate all the codes that say something like "except with prior approval from Lambda."  That would require a board meeting or a general membership meeting.  Not so?  This line is particularly problematic because it ends up making Sonny, or Little John, or Carter, or Tracey, or whoever happens to be running the coffee bar equal to "Lambda."  Not good in my opinion.
