Lawn Mowing & Grounds Information
Lawn Mowing Our lawn maintenance contractor, which is currently Marbros Co., normally mows the lawns in the subdivision on FRIDAYS. This may change, however, based on weather conditions and other factors.
Hedge Trimming Early summer and fall bush/hedge trimming is according to current contract dates. Please see CALENDAR page. Trimming will take place anytime within in those dates, so if you DO NOT want a bush at your residence trimmed, place a small flag (can be purchased at hardware stores, etc.) by the bush. Otherwise, unless designated, all bushes/hedges will be trimmed. General time frame is given based on multiple conditions, i.e. weather, personnel availability, etc.
Sprinkler System Lawn sprinklers will be turned on for the Summer in late April/early May. They are scheduled to run on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays beginning at 8:00 PM during the watering season. There are 25 sprinkling zones in the subdivision and each zone runs approximately 30 minutes. A map of the 25 sprinkler zones, including scheduled run times, is posted below. The sprinkler system will be turned off and prepared for the fall/winter in early October.
If you ever notice a sprinkler that is leaking or operating erratically, contact Dennis Johnson so that the problem can be addressed.
(Notice: Please be advised, per Marbros Co., that because of their existing contract with RECA, if any individual homeowners who would like work done around their home, other than specified in the contract, i.e. shrub removal and replacement, tree planting, etc., Marbros Co. will consider priority bidding/negotiations over other contractors for work to be done.)
