Good afternoon Sonoma Verde!
Thank you for joining us for last week's Lunch n Learn. Your feedback helped provide us with a lot of valuable information to share with the community through our bi-weekly newsletter and the Sonoma Verde Facebook page. Our goal is to keep you as up to date as possible when it comes to the goings-on in Sonoma Verde! Our goal is to keep you as up to date as possible when it comes to the goings-on in Sonoma Verde!
Here is some weekly information on current repairs and community improvements:
Community Updates
Landscaping:
The ornamental grasses have been trimmed back, and fresh mulch has been installed throughout the amenities and common areas of the community. The rabbits have really enjoyed the pansies at the front entry. D&D Landscape replaced the pansies with dianthus at no additional cost to the Association. We appreciate your feedback and are researching some options based on requests and suggestions we have received from the community.
Pond Fountain:
The Lake Doctor has serviced the pond fountain and restored the lights. Please notify Association Management if you see an issue to address the issue as quickly as possible.
Builder Trash and Mud:
We have seen a large amount of builder trash blowing around the community recently. We are aware and are working with the builders to mitigate these issues with trash. As much as it was needed, the rain has also increased the amount of mud and dirt on the roads. The builders do have street sweepers come through routinely to help address this mess.
Community Standards
Holiday Lights and Decor:
As we approach the end of January, this is a gentle reminder that lights and decor must be removed within 30 days of the holiday. Please remember to take down holiday lights and lawn decor to avoid any violations.
Other Common Violations to Avoid:
- Visible trash/recycle cans on non-trash pick-up days.
- Unapproved architectural modifications.
- Prohibited vehicle parking, such as commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, watercraft, and trailers.
- Landscape neglect such as weeds, tall grass, and dead trees.
If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know, and we will be happy to help!
Thank you,
Jamie Patterson
Community Manager
