Good afternoon, Sonoma Verde!
I wanted to give some kudos to a few community members this week that saw an issue and reached out to us to ensure the problems were addressed!
Kudos for this week:
Dale and Maranda - for quickly reporting a couple of irrigation issues in the last two weeks. Their communication allowed us to dispatch an irrigation technician to turn off the water and make timely repairs!
Bryan - for bringing some community concerns to my attention. I am working with the Board to address these concerns.
I want to thank everyone who has contacted us with updates on landscaping and weed treatments. Please forgive me if I slipped up and sent a letter in error.
I also wanted to provide you with a few community updates on some items we are addressing throughout the community.
Assessments:
Second Quarter assessments are now due. Please make your payment before April 30th, either online, by mail, or by dropping your check or money order at the office, to avoid late fees.
Amenity Center:
We have made some plumbing repairs in the amenity center restrooms as well as the pool when damage was discovered after the winter freeze. We are diligently working to have the pool ready to open in May.
Entry Clock:
We continue to search for a clock solution; we have ordered a replacement for the part that is causing the issue. We hope this will solve the problem after exhausting the other options that did not require replacing parts.
Waste Management Concerns:
If you have experienced issues with CWD, please submit your complaints to the City of McLendon-Chisholm. The city handles the contract for waste management and, should a change be necessary, they hold the authority to make such a change.
And, lastly, I wanted to check in on some community standards reminders. As the weather warms, everyone will want to get outside to play, and we want to make sure the community looks its best!
Please remember:
- Basketball goals/sports equipment should be stored away from view when not in use. Children should not play in the street or block traffic.
- Boats/RV/trailers/watercraft should be stored off-site or away from public view.
- Waste and recycling receptacles should be stored away from view on non-trash days.
- Architectural changes must be approved by The Association before any work begins on exterior changes.
I hope you all have a great weekend and are getting productive in preparing for the community garage sale next weekend!
Thank you,
Jamie Patterson
Community Manager

Happy Friday!
I'm really sad I wasn't able to make it out to the Easter Bunny Hop Along last Saturday, but I'm glad the Easter Bunny was able to be there in my place! From what he told me everyone had a great time, there were only a couple of kids that wanted nothing to do with a 6 foot tall bunny (5'10 for those counting at home, but the ears helped me...ummm...him finally achieve a goal of being 6 feet tall...) and there was NO candy left at the end.
Thank you to our amazing event sponsor, Sarah Naylor KW, for helping with the event, taking pictures, and providing candy at every stop! The McLendon-Chisholm Fire Department was amazing for letting us ride along on some trucks and got to show off their sirens and horns to make sure everyone knew we were coming! |

If you could live anywhere in the world for one year, where would it be?
Sedona, AZ. My husband surprised me with a trip there for our second wedding anniversary and I've wanted to go back every since!

If you could live anywhere in the world for one year, where would it be?
My first thought was Colorado, but I think it would ultimately be New Zealand because I have never been and it is currently #1 on my travel bucket list.
