Survey Results

Thanks, to all who returned the survey. There is definitely good information in your responses and we will begin to address your suggestions. Each month, for the next several months, we will report in the Rendezvous our efforts to respond to the concerns you voiced through the survey. We will first address “Landscaping”.
1. Weeding, replacing dead plants and trees; This is on-going. This cool and wet spring has hindered the use of weed killers. When the weather warms the landscaping company will be more efficient in controlling weeds including dandelions. We have begun replacing trees. We have also given most trees a nutrient supplement as they have not “greened up” yet. We removed the trees along the South boundary because of the number we were losing through wind and vandalism. We will be replacing them with a more durable bush.
2. Courtyard maintenance, gravel areas, drip lines; We really need to rely on the residents to keep the court yards tidy. The landscapers will replace plants and mow. Bicycles and other items really detract from the overall appearance. We will order more gravel for Phase I areas needing refreshing. It is a special rock we get from Farmington subject to availability. I believe we have buried most of the exposed drip lines. Please remind children not to pull these up as they are both unsightly and the plants die without water.
3. Pet dropping and lawn damage; We need to constantly monitor dog droppings and can use everyone’s assistance. We will begin to reseed the dog damaged areas in the next few weeks.
