Below are the highlights of the April 29, 2024, meeting and other community information.
- Nature’s Care – Landscaping Update – Irrigation
- Jaime Beaulieu, President from Nature’s Care, joined the board meeting. He provided the board with an update regarding the irrigation within the community.
- We are currently in a drought situation. We are not receiving rain that we normally do at this time of the year. You will see grass start to die, but as soon as the rain begins, you will see the grass start to turn green and grow.
- The City of Sanford is also having problems this year providing sufficient water for irrigation. This in turn causes problems with the pressure needed for Greystone’s watering.
- There are no problems with the Greystone irrigation system.
- If you are concerned about the sod dying out, please water the area until the drought we are in is over.
- Nature’s Care – Landscaping Update – General Information
- With regards to the cleanup of leaves and grass after detailing or mowing, Nature’s Care will compete this task before they leave the community for the day. They do not immediately clean and blow the area after service.
- The community was reminded that Nature’s Care provides landscaping for the entire community, not individual care. If you need personalized lawn care, please contact Eufemia.
