HELPFUL INFORMATION FOR OWNERS WILDLIFE IN STRUCTURES

The tree-lined streets of Baldwin Park offer shady canopies for residents to enjoy the outdoors and provide homes for amazing animals like songbirds, squirrels and even bats.

Bats provide great pest control. They are protected year-round from harm and cannot be evicted from buildings until after the end of the annual bat maternity season, between April 15 and Aug. 15.

Now is the time to evaluate your home for potential wildlife entry points and make necessary repairs. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission provided us with a comprehensive video addressing “How to Remove Bats from Buildings.” You can access it online at youtube. com/watch?v=IbaKnvc8sZA.

UPDATES

n Please remember to report any landscape, building or irrigation issues on the Baldwin Park Services App. Reporting items on the Baldwin Park Services App will allow residents to share photos of the reported area(s), and receive real time updates from management staff on corrective measures being taken.

n Roof replacements are coming to multiple townhome service areas! Please remember to check your attics/soffit areas for any bats and/or rodents. Some of these animals may have decided to make a home in these areas. Animals will be required to be removed prior to any roof replacement projects beginning and may delay construction if they are found. This is considered a homeowner expense. Issa 22 is the first service area to receive roof replacements this year, followed by Cambridge, Issa 28, and City Homes No. 1. Not all addresses will have roof replacements this year; some addresses are listed to be replaced in 2023 per the Reserve Study. More information will be released as it becomes available.

n New sod that was installed in January/February has been treated with a fungicide.

n BrightView treated all Majestic Beauty Trees (Live/Work) with granular fertilizer which contains micro-nutrients and a fungicide. n BrightView has sprayed/ treated weeds in the Cambridge service area.

n BrightView treated azaleas at Cambridge, City Homes 1, Issa 22, Issa 28, City Homes 4, City Homes 2, City Homes 3, and Live Works for spots.

n During the month of December, there was 1.21 inches of rain (normal is 2.34 inches).

n Per DRS Inc. here is the Townhome painting schedule for February/March 2022: Live/ Work (final building), Cambridge (Meeting Place). n Per DRS Inc. here is the Townhome maintenance schedule for March 2022: City Homes No. 1.

n Because of the pandemic, there has been an adjustment to originally stated dates for painting projects and maintenance in the townhome service areas. Supplies were delayed in being shipped from vendors to DRS Inc. at the beginning of the year. Schedules now will be projected one to two months out to anticipate any possible future changes. Notices still are being left on townhome front doors one to two weeks in advance to inform residents of any upcoming projects beginning in their address range.

VILLAGE CENTER UPDATES

n May the luck of the Irish be with you the entire month of March! Check out all the local celebrations and decorations around the Village Center all month.

NEIGHBORHOOD BUSINESS DISTRICT

n Over the past few months, we have been working on a project to revitalize the landscaping on some of the parking lot islands. This project will continue over the course of the next few months until all are completed.

VILLAGE CENTER

n The conversion of the parking light to LED continues throughout the year. LED lights are much more efficient and brighter than the old bulbs.

GENERAL UPDATES

n The annual tree trimming of the CDD areas started in February and will run though March. Be mindful around the workers and their equipment.

n The parking lot dumpsters are not meant for large items. This can break or clog the city’s dumpsters and cause further issues. If you have any bulk items, the city of Orlando offers bulk pick-up — in most cases, free of charge! This can be used for most items that cannot fit in the commercial dumpster. Visit orlando.gov/Trash-Recycling for more information and to schedule future pick-ups.

n Have you downloaded the Baldwin Park Services App yet? You can find it in the Android Play Store or in the Apple Store. It is a great resource to report various issues around the community, including light outages, broken sprinkler heads and many others. You also can submit work requests for city of Orlando maintenance and repair.

n Architectural Review Committee meetings take place twice a month — on the second and fourth Tuesdays — for application reviews regarding commercial changes to exterior structures (roofing replacements and painting), landscaping and signage. All corresponding applications can be located on the Baldwin Park Network under Commercial Owners Association and Commercial Architectural Review Committee. For questions and application submission please email Bill at BPatterson@ BaldwinParkPOA.com.
