Manager’s Messages

With all of the demands on your time, it is sometimes hard to focus on courtesies regarding pet ownership.  Unfortunately, it also creates more stress for your neighbors when they have to deal with nuisances such as barking dogs, loose dogs and cats and feces being left on their property or in the common area.  These are clearly the responsibility of the pet owner and abiding by the pet rules in the community will not only promote a better relationship amongst neighbors, but will protect the health and safety of the animals as well.  Remember to always have your pet on a leash and pick up any waste left behind.  Also, please do not allow your dogs to travel onto an owners lot to defecate or urinate on plants.  Pet waste damages plants and discolors the mulch. Plant replacements can be costly to the Association and costly to the homeowner.

Please be a good neighbor – You can make a difference!

The Board of Directors recently approved for the sidewalks around the park to grinded in lifted areas due to liability concerns. In addition, there is an area near the tables that will be replaced due to ground settlement.

Please remember that the playground and park areas are closed from 10pm-6am. The lighting has been recently upgraded to allow better lighting for the area at night and prevent loitering.

All of this has been done to take care of the community and enhance your enjoyment in the common areas.
