Architectural Review (ARC):

The ARC has recently added a retractable screen door

to the HOA approved screen door resolution. For more

information on the new option, contact CAP or see the

printed resolution in the community bulletin board west

of the fountain.

Landscape Committee:

Fall Planting Event - 10am, Saturday, Sept. 18th

Plants from overgrown areas will be repurposed to

happier, healthier locations. Meet at the fountain.

Thanks to all who took the time to respond to the

landscape survey in May; 50 homeowners responded.

The LC identified and prioritized locations that need

replacement plantings, giving top priority to locations

where plants are either missing or completely dead.

Showplace has been given approval to begin this project,

which should be complete by the end of November.

The LC is developing and refining a process that should

streamline homeowner requests for plant replacement.

We submitted our proposal to the Board at the August

meeting, and hope to have approval soon. Once

approved, we’ll make it available to home owners via the

Yahoo! Group, blogspot web s ite, and CAP. Stay tuned!
