HELPFUL INFORMATION FOR TOWNHOUSE OWNERS

Who is responsible for the irrigation in the back yard or private zone of my townhome (concerning service areas — Cambridge, Issa 22 and Issa 28 townhomes)?

The irrigation water is paid through the monthly assessments. The irrigation system originally was installed by the builder(s), and it is all connected. There are many zones for each time clock, and each zone can control more than just one backyard/ private zone. The irrigation runs overnight, and the association tries to follow the St. John’s Water Management District guidelines. However, the association uses reclaimed water, so it’s not a requirement at this point. Irrigation zones where there is new plant material may run longer until the sod or plant material gets established.

The irrigation system that lies within your backyard/private zone is the responsibility of the owner to maintain. If a repair is needed, a licensed irrigation technician/company carries a universal key that can be utilized to access the irrigation box. If you have any questions, please contact Melissa Parker, mparker@baldwinparkpoa. com.

’Tis the season to visit the Village Center! Come down to enjoy all the beautiful decorations. While you are here, check out the amazing restaurants and shopping.

THINGS TO KNOW

Trash Talk. The dumpsters in the parking lots are operated by the city of Orlando. Sometimes when they break down, it takes a few days to x. If they are not working, please let us know, so we can contact the city. A temporary dumpster may be needed until the repair is completed. Until that dumpster arrives, and if it gets full, please take your trash to one of the other parking lot dumpsters. Leaving trash outside the dumpster is unsightly and attracts animals and bugs. More trash talk. Tenants of the apartments are permitted to use the side trash shoot for their garbage. Please make sure the bags do not sit in the shoot and actually make it into the compactor. Once the door is closed, it will compact. Restaurants are to throw the trash directly into the compactor and not use the trash shoot. This prevents spillage and trash build-up. Please make sure all boxes are broken down prior to throwing them in. The city will not pickup items that do not t in the compactor. Please use OUC bulk pickup for these items. Visit orlando.gov/Trash-Recycling for more information and to schedule future pickups.

The Commercial Association has clari ed and adopted new parking lot restrictions and rules e ective Oct. 10, 2022. These rules govern all the commercial owned parking lots, including the nine parking lots in the Village Center and the lot at the Neighborhood Business District o Lake Baldwin Lane. Village Center parking areas shall be used by the employees and customers of any businesses in the Village Center and employees or tenants of the Village Center residential apartments. The Neighborhood Business District parking lot only should be used only by owners, tenants and patrons of the buildings there. No overnight parking is permitted without prior written approval from the association. You can nd a full breakdown of the parking lot uses restrictions and rule at the following path on the Baldwin Park Network:
