“A forever reminder to pick up after your dog while enjoying the long walks with the family pet(s). It is the respectful thing to do anywhere you go.”
ell folks what a winter! Of all the states in the country this is probably the best to have spent this past winter. There will more than likely be snow on the tops for most of the spring months; who knows there might be skiing on July 4th. Keep an eye on Peavine before planting your tomatoes; snow on it can bring cool nights and even frost for a few hours. All you golfers out there time to trade in your shovel for a good set of clubs and go out there challenging yourselves on our neighbor courses. For your Board and service partners spring is the most active period of preparation for the summer months. The crews are in full motion repairing and cleaning up our various common area elements. As well we have a list of improvement projects in the hopper aimed at the continued uplifting of our tired looking landscape in several parts of the property. Our continuing focus is irrigation water. While this year should have plenty water available we will shift our focus on particle free and consistent pressure with our investments in this area. To some extent this work gets us more drought resistant for the future by increasing our efficiency (less clogging & better coverage). We will also tend to other aspects of our community “look appeal”. The main water feature letters, curbs and dog stations just to name a few will get a fresh coat of paint. A forever reminder to pick up after your dog while enjoying the long walks with the family pet(s). It is the respectful thing to do anywhere you go. We have some 20+ dog stations located throughout the community grounds; they are maintained regularly and feature double bag dispensers. Use them! If you feel there is a need in an area currently not covered drop us an email with the specific suggested location and we will review your request for a potential new installation. Our children will be out riding their bikes and just having fun with outdoor activities. Motorists must remain vigilant driving around the community. ALL our streets are zoned for 25 MPH speed limit unless posted otherwise (i.e. pedestrian crossings); this to protect all our residents so best all of us driving observe the limit. OK…let’s get on with it. Wishing you all a great spring and we’ll catch you next for the summer edition.Looking forward to meeting you on my dog walks or on the course and especially at our April 27 Board meeting.
