Dues Lowered

$$$ The dues for 2013 have been lowered from $720 to $600 payable quarterly at $150. This should help to offset the recent increase in property taxes.

Dog Problem


The board has received a complaint that we would like to pass on.

Seems an unknown dog has been visiting one of our homeowners on a regular basis. This is actually a pretty serious matter according to the Eagle City Animal Code (download it here – Eagle City Code – Animal Control). Fines could be as high as $300.

Our CCR’s address it also. Red Leaf CCRS 4.19 Animals Pets.

This particular problem may be coming from outside our neighborhood. However, if not please be considerate of your neighbors and clean up after your pet.

Hooray – the Basketball Hoop is Fixed

The adjustment mechanism is finally fixed – it can now be adjusted to your height and skill level. A sign has been attached to the pole next to the crank that indicates you should not adjust it higher than 10 feet or lower than 5 feet. Please pass this information on to your kids since the mechanism could fail again if it is forced past those limits. Even though it is under warranty, it still took two months to get the fix.

This is a good quality hoop and is warranted to stand up to even the roughest treatment – including dunking. If you want to check out the specs go to ProDunkHoops.com and select the Gold model in the adjustable models.

Turtle Escapes…on the loose in Eagle!

Turtle on the loose in Eagle. 🙂 This is no pet skunk story but rather a very large and pretty friendly turtle went for a walk Saturday August 25 in our neighborhood.

The Eagle police found a turtle rescue group in Boise after trying to find someone close that would claim him. He’s safe and in good hands but we’re sure someone is missing him.

Deputy Zach Helbach with the Ada County Sheriff’s Office would be a good contact for someone looking to get him back. His number is 938-2260.

Volleyball Court

Earlier this year we had the volleyball litter box, oops, I mean sand court removed and replaced with grass. However, the sod didn’t take too well in some areas (sinking, dead spots, etc.) Summer Lawns will be adding 6 yds of top soil and new sod at their cost. Unfortunately it will probably not be usable until spring, so we will delay hanging the net until then.

HELP

We recently checked to see how many homeowners have signed up on this website. Can you believe we have only 47 email addresses and it is not easy to determine how many of those are actual homeowners. This is the most inexpensive and convenient way to get information out.
So I’m asking every one that gets this as an email to forward it to any neighbors that you happen to know their email address, or mention it over the fence, or any other way to encourage them. All they have to do is call up redleafheights.info and subscribe their email in the place provided. They will then get emails such as this one when something is posted. We have some important information to get out and your help would be greatly appreciated.

Good Neighbors

The board has received a few complaints recently that we all would like to see addressed.

1) Dogs on leash. The CC&R’s require all pets outside your yard to be on leash. We’ve had some scary incidents lately. I know you believe that Fido would never bite anyone, but you never know when he’ll turn cranky. I think it goes without saying that you should also clean up after them.

2) Cats in neighbor’s yards. Cats are great pets but you can’t confine them to your yard if you let them out. One recent complaint had some real horror stories to tell about cats in his yard, garden, flower beds and even his car in his garage. Somehow, and I know it is hard, keep them out of your neighbor’s yard.

3) Pet Skunk. Please, please, who ever has the skunk for a pet, please get him de-scented.

4) Backyard fire pit. Those of you that have a backyard fire pit, when you are done for the evening, please extinguish it. The smoldering embers put out a lot of smoke that is as hard to keep in your back yard as the cat. Some of us like to open our windows at night when it is cool but that is sometimes not possible because of the smoke or the skunk smell.

5) Vehicle Parking. Parking unsightly trailers or other vehicles on our streets. This is prohibited in the CC&R’s. If it is a temporary thing then your driveway would be better than the street.

If your neighbor approaches you on these or any other issue, please treat him kindly. The Golden Rule is never out of date and we would all like to be good neighbors.
