NO-MOW FESCUE GRASS AREAS

All of the storm water basins, which have the no-mow fescue grass areas at Cambridge Lakes, have been flagged with Green flags, which indicate the No-Mow Fescue boundary. This no-mow boundary needs to remain at a minimum of 8" in height and will only be mowed one time on July 1st and one time on September 1st (per the specifications in the contract). In the past these areas have been mowed as turf grass, which has caused some problems with water quality and geese. The purpose of the no-mow fescue is to filter out any herbicide from entering the ponds from nearby turf grasses, which will help protect water quality. The taller grass can at times help keep geese off of these slopes as geese do not feel comfortable walking through taller grasses. Please take note of these flags and communicate the purpose of them to your staff and residents as needed. It is imperative these areas are maintained correctly. Our HOA managers should communicate this specification to the homeowners. Landscape contractors will report any of these or other areas that are being maintained by the residents incorrectly so we can educate those individuals as to the potential problems they are causing. Together the Landscaping Contractor, The Village of Pingree Grove and The Association will work to properly maintain the grounds. Any interference by any individual not authorized/contracted to maintained Common Area on the property will be addressed accordingly.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS ABOUT SNOW REMOVAL

All Holiday decorations MUST be at least 3' from the sidewalk to avoid damage or breakage. Salt buckets will not be supplied by the HOA, however, we do recommend using Ice Melt (sodium chloride) when you purchase your material for ice removal / prevention. Plowing is done only when there is at least 2" inches of snow, as well as snow removal at the town homes or condo's. Snow removal is based on outside elements, which means the time of day (or night) cannot be pre-determined. This means snow removal can and may be done in the very early hours or very late hours, this is to ensure the most effective snow removal process for the community.

ARCHITECTURAL APPLICATIONS

Any exterior modification requires an Architectural Applications (14.48 KB) Architectural Improvement Application. Please submit all plans a long with a copy of your plat of survey and allow 30 days for an approval by The Board Of Directors. If you have any questions inquire at the Community Center. Thank you.
