ANNOUNCEMENTS
GRASS SEEDING: Over the next two weeks the landscaping management company will be reseeding all common area grasses. Please make sure to pull all vehicles back from the curb by at least 1 foot, so as not to cover any grass areas, during this time so that common areas can be accessed. Also, please make sure to place trash cans on pavement only.
POND WORK IN PROGRESS: The initial work on the storm water management pond is well underway. At this stage, contractors are assessing, testing, and doing baseline research on the pond, topography, tree cover, and other important factors for this project. In the last few weeks, contractors have been marking off areas that are being measured. Please do not remove or disturb these markers. VERY IMPORTANT, this week another contractor will be doing electrical resistivity testing. Please do not enter the pond area, stay behind fences, and do not go near any water or equipment that may be there.
Fall Festival- CANCELED: Unfortunately, we do not have enough volunteers or support to host this event. If interested in joining the Events Committee, please email us at hoa@exeterhoa.com.
