Sleepy Hollow Homeowners Association, a gated, age-restricted community, has earned a reputation for being unfriendly and difficult to work with in the surrounding town over the years. Thinking it should strengthen civic ties and improve its reputation, the association board would like to open the community’s gates to trick-or-treaters on Halloween. However, some owners are concerned Sleepy Hollow could be inviting trouble by allowing nonresidents inside the quiet community. They value the privacy the gates provide and don’t want to establish a precedent of nonresident access.

Should Sleepy Hollow open its gates on Halloween to improve its reputation? Or does it risk too much by granting access to trick-or-treaters?
