Springtime at home.

As we communicated, the HOA annual meeting has been postponed until we are safe to reschedule. Due to the current rules and restrictions by the city and state, we will work to find a new date for our meeting. We will work with our planned speakers to coordinate a new date.

Trash Bins and Wind Don’t Always Mix:
As Spring rolls in, also comes new elements to consider. Rain and Wind. On trash days, try and secure your bins and lids so that stronger winds do not carry trash or blow over your bins. Lawn bags can also be blown over if light! If you see one has blown over, be a helpful neighbor. With more foot-traffic around the neighborhood, let’s all do our best to keep it beautiful and trash-free. Read more about Trash here.
Ring Neighbor App
The popular doorbell and camera maker, Ring, has a free neighborhood app for iOS and Android devices to see real-time crime and safety alerts from neighbors and local law enforcement. Examples of things to report include suspicious people and cars, break-ins, loose animals, and porch pirates (package thieves). If you have a Ring doorbell or camera, you can easily upload photos and videos from your camera. You can also define the specific area you want to monitor. Only care about Milburn Fields? You can draw a map to only target specific blocks. For more info, click here!
Good Neighbor Reminders:
- When walking your dog in the neighborhood, remember that it should be leashed.
- Please pickup after your pet. Animal waste can be hazardous to the health of other pets and humans too.
- Wind can bring falling branches & sticks. Rain will make things slippery, too. If you notice branches in the street or sidewalks, please be sure to clear these and set out for our WCA yard waste collection.
- Trees that have low-hanging branches should also be trimmed so sidewalks are clear to walk.
