Spring Manager’s Report

Spring has SPRUNG and SUMMER will be here before you know it.

We are increasing our compliance inspections for the subdivision as we are seeing more weeds popping up all around the area. We know that it is spring time, and everyone is starting to get out to address the problem. THANK YOU!

Our compliance letters are done in three (3) phases:

Phase 1: Courtesy letter – this letter serves as a notice that a problem in your yard or around your home has been identified. There is no fine associated with this letter. You are given 21 days from the date of the letter to correct the problem (IN MOST CASES).

Phase 2: Violation letter 2 This letter has a $25.00 fine associated with it. This letter is a second notice that a covenant/rule violation has been found at your property and has not been corrected. You will have an additional 10 days to correct the problem.

Phase 3:  Violation Letter 3 – This violation letter carries a $50.00 fine for noncompliance with the subdivision covenants and rules. You now have one more 10-day period to correct the violation.
