Maintaining Flower Beds

The staff would like to remind the members to keep their flower beds neat and clean. Keeping the flower beds weed free helps the whole property look good. Please refer to your handbook should you have any questions as to your responsibility in the upkeep of your flower bed(s). Management will begin exterior inspections after Memorial Day.

Air Conditioning Reminder

Have you checked your air conditioner to see if it is operating properly? If is a good idea to test your system before the weather gets too hot. If your air conditioner doesn’t seem to be cooling properly, call a licensed contractor for service.

Watch for Minors

School will be out soon, and the minors will be out playing! Please be extra careful when driving through the cooperative during the summer months. You never know when a child will dart out into the road or parking lot while they are playing. Thanks for driving safely throughout our community.

Get to Know Your Neighbor

Now that everyone is getting outside more, make an effort to get to know those who live around you. Authorities say that having neighbors who can keep an eye on your townhouse while you are away is often your best protection against burglary. Making friends just helps create a sense of community and belonging too. So next time you see your neighbor say “Hi” and take a minute to get to know each other better. You’ll be glad you did.
