We would like to have all residents embrace this thought in all activities related to this community.

Over the last 12-24 months we have seen our house values climb rapidly.  Our neighborhood is an older and mature neighborhood with sound construction, beautiful, mature trees and well maintained landscaping which makes it a favorite for buyers.  The addition of an elementary school within walking distance adds that much more to the potential value of our neighborhood, but a poor appearance can depreciate property values quickly. 

Each of us must be aware of our own property and the upkeep needed to maintain those values – please don’t be a last minute repair hound and let the property deteriorate until you are ready to sell.  Consider your neighbors who might be selling today and how their sale price makes your property values climb for when you want to sell. 

Spring inspections have been completed and mailed to owners – please take the time to make the repairs so all of our homes look that much more attractive. 

As far as everyday items – please remove junk, trash, garbage cans, recycle bins, toys, bicycles, lawn mowers and the like from the front yard or porch – store them out back, out of sight.

Ask your children to bring in their paper trash from the ‘Ice Cream Man’ rather then just dropping it on common ground.  
All of these small steps can help improve the appearance of our community. 

A group of eight volunteers came out on a cool Saturday morning to pick up trash, paint the street light poles on many streets and work the areas along our property line.   

This was a small group and they could have used your help.  Since you couldn’t get out on Saturday – please go out every day and help the community appearance by picking up around your home and keeping the community neat and orderly.
