Landscape Questions/Comments? Join the Landscape Committee!

7/13/2015

0 Comments

 
Recently, there have been several homeowners with questions or comments regarding the overall landscape plan and the plant materials that are chosen to replace dead, dying or diseased material throughout the property.

Currently, the board relies almost entirely on our landscape service provider(s) to recommend species of plant materials based on size, location, life expectancy, ease of care, resistance to disease, resistance to deicing chemicals (if close to driveways/walks), etc. The board then approves these new and replacement plant materials based on funds available from the approved fiscal year landscape budget.

In the not to distant past, we were very fortunate to have had some homeowners with a bit of green thumb or an amateur interest in gardening that have served the community via their volunteer participation in a formal landscape committee. 

Unfortunately, it has been several years since the landscape committee has been active and the board would like nothing more than to see it reestablished. 

So...are you a homeowner that would like to have an impact on the appearance of the Sarah's Glen community and have a say in the recommendation, selection and placement of landscape features? If so, we want you!

There is a small time commitment involved, but anyone actively participating in the landscape committee has a voice in recommending and helping the board make decisions on all landscape features/plant material throughout the property. FYI, the entire outdoor area of the property is considered common or limited common area, so the results of the committee's participation has the potential to greatly impact the look and feel of the property over time.

Your time volunteering for the landscape committee would generally be spent at following activities:
  • occasional "walk-throughs" of the property with other committee members, board members, management company and service providers.
  • soliciting and reviewing proposals from landscape providers to help make landscape feature recommendations to the board (within budgetary limits).
  • communication with board members/management company.
  • participating in occasional board meetings where landscape quotes/proposals are discussed.

Interested in volunteering?? Please let us know via an email to sarahsglen@gmail.com with your contact information and a board member will respond to you.

Thanks!! We look forward to your participation!!

Moving/Storage Pod/Trailers/Etc not permitted in driveways

There have been complaints received regarding recent instances of moving/storage pod trailers placed overnight (or longer) in driveways without permission from the management company (W.L. Seymour).

Per Sarah's Glen Bylaws/Rules & Regulations, driveways are considered a limited common area and placing such items in driveways or streets is prohibited without prior permission being obtained.

In general, only the following items are permitted to be parked on individual driveways, designated guest parking spaces or on Village streets within the Association:

  • Currently licensed passenger automobiles, pickup trucks and vans having no more than five entry doors and no business lettering affixed.
  • Currently licensed motorcycles.
  • Commercial vehicles parked temporarily in the normal course of their business.

The Board (via request to W.L. Seymour) may approve TEMPORARY overnight parking of other vehicles, trailers, etc if prior permission has been granted.

Violators will be warned and/or fined. For additional information, please see the Sarah's Glen Declarations of Easements, Restrictions & Covenants, the Rules & Regulations or contact the management company (W.L. Seymour).

Update - In addition to the general language shown above from the R&Rs, specific areas of the Sarah's Glen Declarations of Easements, Restrictions & Covenants address "Use and Occupancy" restrictions such as this. Please see below:
