Landscape

The landscape committee volunteers continue to keep our community beautiful.  This is by far the largest committee within our community, which requires a great number of volunteers and support.  There are several sub-committees within the landscape committee and volunteers are needed to continue the success of this great committee.  The areas of need are many but to name a few; budget planning, trees, pruning, flowers.   

If you are interested in serving on a committee, please contact us.   

April meeting notes: The monument near Cracker Barrel has been repaired. We are changing out the vitesporum that were damaged by the work done at the monument. Our landscaping company has decluttered the area on Park Cypress and replaced some of the landscaping at Allendale. There are plans to trim some elm trees and there is work being done on the beds at the park Cypress pool.

May meeting notes: Work is being done in the Park Cypress area to ensure it looks nice in time for the pool to open.  Incorrect roses were installed at the monument and are being modified.  We will be arranging a meeting with our landscaping company to discuss the expectations for the neighborhood.  

June meeting notes:  We are trying to complete planting and ensure that bubblers are on the trees. Plant sizes were not correct and are being adjusted. The focus will now be on watering. Three trees with pine bark beetles were found and will need treatment. Two Board members met with our Landscape company to reinforce the contract requirements and plan work going forward.  Bridge repair is needed at Allview and Baker Roads and a note will be sent to Crest on that. 

July meeting notes:  A few trees were removed from pine bark beetles. The Board is working closely with our landscape company to ensure they meet their contractual requirements and if they do not, other companies are considered.   

August meeting notes:  There are lots of dry areas and the grass is being cut too short. Some sprinkler heads were broken and are being repaired.  It was noted that the irrigation report was not received this month.

September meeting notes: Budget suggestions for next year were made.  They will be reviewed during October and budgets are planned to be finalized in November.
