Looks like Spring might have finally arrived (let’s hope it sticks around for awhile🤞 ). BrightView has begun the Spring activities by cleaning, mulching and edging the community. Please remember that BrightView provides basic grass cutting and edging to builder supplied beds and community areas. They do not install or replenish developer or builder provided plantings.    Through the newly installed owner HOA Board, the Landscape Committee will serve as the point of contact for all questions, concerns and complaints along with FREM. BrightView management decided to assign a new project manager, Betsy Hernandez. John Smith will no longer be working with our community.   Here are some "Do's and Don'ts:" * Do water your private gardens and shrubs. * Don't over water lawns and gardens as it may cause soggy areas or excessive  run-off . * Do keep grassy areas clutter free and ensure that all flower pots, bird feeders, etc. are in mulch beds. * Don't place objects in common areas or in the path of mowers. * Do roll up garden hoses after use. * Don't stop mowing crews to ask for individual services. * Do help the lawn mowing crews by placing a "Hard Edge" around you decks, beds, etc.     (This will facilitate edging and trimming.) * Do remember to clean up all pet waste from lawns, sidewalks, walking path, etc.   Please do not stop the work crews to ask for additional services, contact FREM or a member of the committee for additional information.
