Irrigation Water reduced 25%

ALittleWater

Farmer Union Irrigation water has reduced the water in our ditch by 25% beginning Monday morning June 29.
This was done to stretch storage water through to the end of the season. We will monitor this closely – potential problems could be loss of pressure at times or even shutdown of the pumps.

Earlier this year we had some problems with extra debris which we hope has now been corrected.

We know that this is absolutely the worst time for this to occur but you can help by keeping your own filters clean and reduce any extra watering if possible.

Please follow the mandatory water schedule which you can find at:Watering Schedule

Summer Lawns mows the lawn on Wednesday so they do not water late Tuesday or most of the day on Wednesday. You may want to water during that time if you need some extra time.

Depending on the impact of reducing the water we may have to adjust the watering schedule.

You can report issues during normal business hours (M-F, 9am-5pm) to Development Services at 939-6000, Ext. 207. If you have an after-hours emergency or if the water is off in your neighborhood after-hours, you may contact one of the following Board members: Roy 939-1482; Ron 375-0302
Contact information is also available at Contact Info.

Development Services maintains close contact with both Farmers Union and Summer Lawns concerning our water availability and their site will have the latest information.Link to Dev-Services Check the notes under “Important News”.

Basketball Hoop is Fixed and the Volleyball Net is Up

Basketball Hoop

The adjustment mechanism has been fixed again – it can now be adjusted to your height and skill level. There is a sign and a gauge attached to the pole next to the crank that indicates you should not adjust it higher than 10 feet or lower than 5 feet. Forcing it past those limits causes it to fail. Please pass this information on to your kids.

Volleyball Court

The net is now up for the season.

Enjoy!

Landscape Trimming

Spring is here and it’s time for some landscaping activity. As with ACHD policy, the HOA requests that you trim back trees and schrubs which may be causing obstruction and to also keep a neat and attractive appearance. Pay special attention to the trees in the landscape strip between the street and sidewalk to allow for pedestrian use.

ACHD defines obstruction as anything that:

  • Blocks traffic signs
  • Reduces a drivers site distance and ability to see oncoming traffic
  • Prevents pedestrians from full use of the sidewalk
  • Extends into the roadway.

It’s a little late to do major tree pruning which should be done in late winter but minor pruning can be done any time of the year. Low hanging or broken branches, root suckers, water sprouts should always be removed as soon as they occur.
Check out this link for some tips on how to prune. Tree Pruning It covers both fruit and shade trees.
Pruning is good for the trees and done properly will improve their health and shape. Don’t worry about applying anything to the cut as sap running out of the cut is not a problem to the tree.

The Perimeter Fence is now complete

The perimeter fence is now installed and stained.

The color is a Behr color called SC-116 Woodbridge and is a water based fence stain. The painting company converted the Behr SC-116 Woodbridge stain color into the Cabot O.V.T oil
based stain that was used on the fence.

You can buy the Behr water based stain at Home Depot, just ask for Behr House and Fence base number 30 in SC-116 Woodbridge color. Or if you want the oil based
product go to a Cabot dealer and have them formulate the Woodbridge color. Thriftway Lumber on State Street near Collister sells the Cabot product.

The water based stain is somewhat easier to use and the oil based stains can spontaneously combust if not handled properly. Supposedly, the life expectancy of the Cabot and Behr materials are about the same.

The painting company has offered to assist the homeowners in Red Leaf with any questions about the fence staining process, or how much stain they will need or any other questions they have. In addition, they are offering a 5% discount to homeowners in Red Leaf if scheduled soon. You can contact Joe Huether at PCA Fence in Boise 378-4787.
