I hope the recent storms have missed you all! We have been lucky at my house, only getting what amounted to a lot of rain.

We experienced some damages from the February storm (along with everyone else!), causing parts and plumbers to be in short supply, so there have been some repair delays. There is a possibility that we may be able to get everything buttoned up to open earlier than Memorial Day weekend, so if we can move up the opening date, we will let everyone in the community know on the Sonoma Verde Facebook Page as well as with a community email.

We lost several plants due to the February storm. The nurseries are understocked. We are working hard to find plants to replace those damaged plants in common areas.

Please remember that your receptacles should be stored out of public view. Shout out to everyone on Intessa Court. During my community drive, everyone had their trash and recycling receptacles properly stored!!

Goals and play/sports equipment should be stored from view when not in use. Please DO NOT place goals in the street. This is a hazard for your kids and drivers in the community.

Commercial vehicles are not allowed to be parked or stored in public view within the community.

Please park in your garage and driveway as much as possible. The documents do not prohibit street parking; however, please be mindful of your neighbors and do not block mailboxes. Mail carriers will not deliver if the mailbox is blocked. Street parking also creates a safety hazard for drivers and children playing in the community.

Have a great weekend, and, as always, please let me know if there is anything we can do to help you!

Okay, first of all, I need to get something off my chest, and it's been bugging me for a couple of days now: how did those Columbia House "30 CDs for a penny" deals ever make money? I feel like we all started our music collections that way but never paid for anything...

Now that that is out of the way, on to the important stuff!

As Jamie mentioned above, the community pool is scheduled to open on Memorial Day weekend! The pool will be open from 9:00 AM - 9:00 PM, 7 days a week (weather permitting), beginning Friday, May 28th.

With that in mind, I want to ensure that everyone is keeping pool and water safety in mind when you are enjoying the community pool. Since it is a swim at your own risk pool and there are no lifeguards on duty, it is imperative that you use the facility responsibly whether you are enjoying the pool on your own or with your kids.

My goal in everything is to have as much fun as possible, but when you're having fun (whether at our pool, a home pool, the lake, etc.) PLEASE keep in mind that safety is the most important thing!

Have a great weekend!
