CPA HOA  HOMEOWNERS

 

Summer seems to have already arrived with very little notice. If you haven't already, you need to be getting your lawns ready for the, even warmer, upcoming months. Remember any new projects need to be submitted to and approved by the Architectural Design Committee.

​

If you maintain your own yards please make sure your equipment is in working and safe order.

Mow your lawns (fescue) or have your service mow at a height of 3.5 to 4 inches and mow frequently when the temperatures are at the warmest.  This will avoid scalping and help keep moisture in the soil.  Too short and hot temps are perfect conditions for burnout and abundant weed growth.

Water only 2-3 days a week (depending on Mother Nature) but water each zone for longer periods.  This allows strong roots to grow and will allow the moisture to  sink deep down.

Your yard is about lawns and landscape beds.  Weed control is a consistent irritant but is equally import for staying within compliance with the HOA covenants. Refreshing mulch is a great way to help retain moisture and limit weeds in your beds and around trees.

Make sure your sprinkler system is in good working order.

Please be considerate of your neighbors...keep your lawns and landscape well maintained and weed free.  Such details keep every neighbors' property values up.
