Dear Residents,

Spring is here! As we welcome the warmer weather, we will begin conducting spring inspections throughout the community.

As we embrace this vibrant time of year, we want to share a few important reminders to help keep our community beautiful and well-maintained:

Spring Property Checklist
With the change in season, now is the perfect time to inspect your property and address any maintenance needs:

• Landscaping & Yard Maintenance: Remember that our community requires regular lawn and landscaping maintenance. This includes mowing, trimming bushes, reseeding bare spots, mulching, flowerbed and rock bed upkeep, and removing weeds. Hoses should be rolled up on a reel and hidden from public view when not in use. 
• Exterior Upkeep: Check siding, paint, roofs, fences, sheds, and exterior structures for wear and tear, and complete any needed repairs promptly.
• Driveways & Walkways: Keep them clean, clear of debris, and free of cracks or obstacles.

Architectural Design Review Applications
Planning any exterior changes this season? Please remember that all exterior modifications—including play equipment, landscaping changes, trash enclosures, sheds, fences, and other outdoor structures—require prior approval. Applications are due on the 1st and 15th of each month. Please review the Master and Supplemental Guidelines to be familiar with what is approvable. The Master and Supplemental Guidelines can be found here on the website under the Resident Information tab, within the Governing Documents section. Click here to view the Architectural Application. 

Trash & Recycling
As you tackle spring cleaning, please ensure trash and recycling bins are placed out only on collection days and stored out of public view promptly afterward. Keeping our community clean is a shared responsibility.

Pet Reminders
With more residents enjoying the outdoors, please remember:

• Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times and should not enter other homeowners’ property without permission.
• Additionally, please be sure to clean up after your pets and use the pet waste stations throughout the community. It is unlawful for dogs to urinate or defecate on private or public property (PWC Code Sec. 4-11).

Community Courtesy
Please be mindful of your neighbors’ property. Avoid walking across lawns—especially in townhome areas between units—as homeowners invest significant time and care into maintaining their spaces.
