WEED SPRAYING DELAYED

Spraying did not take place today (Wednesday April 9) due to weather conditions earlier this week. Ruppert will notify me when spraying takes place—hopefully by the end of this week. Another notice will be posted as soon as it is completed.  Although I am assured this spray poses no harm to animals, I recommend keeping pets off mulched areas for 48 hours after spraying.

I have conferred directly with the member of the Ruppert crew who will do the spraying. He showed me the no-spray list on his phone and told me he does not need the tape. He has confidence that he can work from the list. Therefore, you may remove the tape at any time. You may leave any unused rolls of tape on a bench in your close and I will pick it up early next week.

Providing Parking Clarity for Weathersfield VI HOA

WSG Covenants:  Article II, Section 3. Parking Rights

WSG VI will maintain upon the Common Areas one garage unit and one outside parking space for each Living Unit. The garage and parking space will be conveniently located with respect to each Living Unit. Each neighborhood area has four (4) or six (6) living units being served by the common parking area. Each Living Unit will respect their neighbors’ temporary need for additional spaces as agreed upon by the Living Unit Owners to accommodate guests, visitors, moving vehicles, and service vehicles when necessary. The common parking area is designed for the exclusive use of the Living Units with the above stipulations. The use of such space by any other member or person may be enjoined by WSG VI or the Members entitled thereto. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by Living Unit Owners within a Close will be resolved by the Board.

 

The right to exclusive use of such parking spaces and each garage unit and to its maintenance by WSG VI shall be appurtenant to and shall pass with title to each Living Unit. No boats, trailers, mobile homes, vehicles for hire, or motor homes owned or leased by any member, family, or guest of Member shall be parked within the right of way of any street, parking lots, or Common Area in WSG VI.

 

WSG Board Comments

The covenants state that “WSG VI will maintain upon the Common Areas one garage unit and one outside parking space for each Living Unit.”  There is no mention of each unit owner having access to three spaces.   Since the amount of parking available in each close is limited, it is incumbent upon the neighbors to work cooperatively with each other with respect to temporary parking, as stated in the covenants.

These comments correct the statements made at the WSG VI Annual General Meeting held on November 2, 2024 that were reflected in the minutes.

WEATHERSFIELD IMPORTANT UPDATE RE: LANDSCAPING AND  NEW WSG BOARD

LANDSCAPING:

John Bailey is now the Landscaping Committee Chair, replacing David Piet.  When a WSG owner has a landscaping request or issue, please begin by contacting Mill House Properties at HOA@Millhouseproperties.com.  Mill House will either address the issue with Ruppert or create a work order.  If a work order is needed, the Landscape Committee will look into the issue and give Mill House guidance on how to proceed.  This is the protocol that is currently used for our maintenance repairs, and we have found that it works well.  Please note, however, that in the event of a true emergency, such as a tree falling on a house, you should contact both Mill House and a Board member.

Please give John Bailey a little time to get up to speed.

NEW WSG BOARD:

 For those owners who did not attend the Annual General Meeting on November 2nd, the New WSG Board now consists of the following people:

Steve Krasnow             President/Insurance Committee Chai

Rebecca Newton        Vice President and Treasure

Maria Tanner                 Secretary

Bob Spillane                  Architectural/Nominating Committe

Ernie Clarke                   Maintenance

John Bailey                     Landscaping

Joyce Brennan              Communications

Daniel Thomas             Utilities

PRUNING UPDATE

Pruning by Ruppert Landscape will begin to take place on Thursday. You are responsible for marking any bushes, plants, or shrubs on your private property that you do NOT want pruned no later than Wednesday evening. Marking/flagging tape has been placed on a bench or a table in the common area in each close in Weathersfield.

 

 

PRUNING SCHEDULE

Pruning by Ruppert Landscape will begin in the common areas and parking lots this week, followed by pruning on private property next week.

Marking/flagging tape will be placed on a bench in the common area in each close in Weathersfield. You are responsible for marking any bushes, plants, or shrubs on your private property that you do NOT want pruned. As in the past, tape will be placed on a bench or table in your close. Contact me if you have difficulty finding tape.

REMEMBER: If any plant on your private property is NOT TAPED by November 20, IT WILL BE PRUNED.

Ruppert is only responsible for pruning up to the HVAC and not in backyards.

Ruppert’s fall and winter schedule is from November 2024 to March 2025. This means a bi-monthly (every two weeks) schedule each Wednesday, weather permitting.
