Please watch your speed driving in the neighborhood. With the warmer weather brings out more children playing in or near the streets, and momma ducks will be herding their babies across the streets from pond to pond. Please slow down and be sure to remind your teenage drivers, too.
Remember both the city leash laws and BW CC&Rs requires that any dog off your lot must be on a leash. They may be well behaved and in your control, or you may think they are not bothering anyone, but there are people out there that have a fear of dogs, and it is not fair to them to be approached by a dog that is not on its leash. Also, we have seen several younger kids walking their dogs that do not clean up their droppings; please be a considerate neighbor and remind your kids of this, too.
With some homes approaching being ten years old, it is time to really take a look at the condition of your exterior paint and check to make sure your roof metals are still painted to match the color of your roof. Spring inspections will be ramped up checking both of these items closely.
When your trees and landscaping start budding out, watch to make sure you do not have any landscaping that died over the winter. If you do, and they are considered a part of your minimum landscaping requirements, theses will need to be removed and replaced right away.
For those of you who are not aware, the developer planted a tree at each property line in the area between the sidewalk and street as a condition of his plat approval. These trees, and the entire area between the sidewalk and street, belong to homeowners, and you are responsible for maintenance of both the grass area and the trees. The city and Brookwood both require that if this property line tree dies or becomes diseased it is the shared responsibility, between both neighbors that the tree borders, to replace that tree with a 2" minimum caliper tree of an approved species. These inspections will also be ramped up this spring when it becomes apparent if your tree is okay or needs replaced. The US Post Office has asked again that you please make sure these trees are trimmed up from the street at least ten feet so that when your mail is delivered the tree limbs do not damage the tops of their trucks. They actually have the right to not deliver your mail if your tree overhangs such that it causes damage to their trucks.
