Changing Scoops to ‘web friendly’

This issue of the Summerfield Scoops marks a change:

We are moving to a ‘web friendly’ format (as opposed to the letter-size PDFs that we had been creating). The idea is that this format will be more phone/tablet friendly, since we know many would rather look at the updates on their mobile devices instead of printing and reading.  (Of course, printing the web page is still an option for those who wish to do so.)

Since we do so many short (and more timely) announcements, it was getting a bit hard to have any new content left over for a newsletter. We’ll continue to publish the Scoops at least several times a year – but we will do so when we have a variety of items to communicate all at once.


Election Certification

As previously announced, Brad Phillips was re-elected to the board for a 3 year term, and Michael Spring was elected for a 3 year term, taking over for Kevin Lowitz.  Many thanks to Kevin for his service to the community! The official election results have been reported to the board and recorded.

Pool Problems!?!?

We love our pool – but we need to make sure that we all use it safely!

  • We have a recent report of the pool gate being blocked open for an extended period. PLEASE keep the gate shut! We really don’t want an accident, and the only way to help prevent it is for all to take responsibility for using the pool safely!
  • Children, under age 14, must be supervised by an attending parent or an adult that has assumed that responsibility. The supervising adult must be at least 18 years old. Always remember that there is no lifeguard on duty.
  • Pool hours are from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm
  • Please do not grant access to people without keys. Our pool is for the use of our residents and their guests.
  • Clean up and take your trash with you—we don’t have EDCO trash pickup at the pool. Minimizing the amount of trash is appreciated. (Extra bags are in the bottom of the trash can.)
  • We now have video surveillance, but remember that it is not actively monitored. Please see the policy for more info.

See Vandalism or Trespassing at the Pool?  Please:

  1. Make note of the circumstances (who, what, where, when, how, why)
  2. File a report with the Sheriff non-emergency line (858-565-5200)
  3. Also let the HOA board know ([email protected] or see contact info above and on summerfieldpoway.com).

Rules are posted at the pool. Further information is available in the “Community Information” document on the website. Every homeowner has the right and responsibility to enforce these rules and is encouraged to do so. Be safe and have fun!


School is Out – Drive Safely!

Help keep Summerfield accident free!

 


Your dog is so cute!…


Summer is here – so are weeds…

We had lots of rain this last winter and spring – and that greened our yards (but also our weeds….) Don’t forget that we all need to work within our architectural standards:

Yards must be maintained, watered, planted and replanted to prevent erosion and present a healthy and trimmed appearance (no more than 20% of lawn area dry or dying). Weeds must be kept under control in all areas of lawns and landscaping. Weeds in the sidewalks or driveways must be removed or eradicated.

If you have any question about landscaping – please email or call! Thanks!


New to the Neighborhood? Change of contact info, new renters, new POA or Owner’s Representative or Property Manager?

New owners and renters should learn about our community rules by reading the “Summerfield Community Information” document in the General Information section of the Policies & Procedures page.

Please email the HOA at [email protected]  to notify us of any changes in your contact information, changes in renters or new individuals with Power of Attorney or Owner’s Representatives or new Property Management company info. This newsletter and other important community updates are sent to all owners, renters and property managers via email as requested.

Note: Owners are required to provide and the Board is required to keep a current list of all owners and renters contact information. (California Corp. Code §8320(a). and Civ. Code §4740(d).)

Please keep us updated, so we can keep you updated!
