Ruppert Landscape – Fall and Winter Schedule December 2022 – March 2023

Ruppert Landscape will be in Weathersfield for regular maintenance the following two Wednesdays – November 23 and 30 – weather permitting. Special attention will be focused on leaf blowing and removal.

Ruppert’s schedule will be twice monthly beginning Wednesday, December 7, 2022, and will go through March 2023.

  • Please keep in mind these biweekly dates or mark your calendars.
  • Please put leaf bags and/or yard debris out the night before, or the day of, Ruppert’s visit to Weathersfield on their biweekly schedule.

Reminder: please refrain from using plastic bags for leaves since they are not biodegradable. Leaf bags should only be the large
paper leaf bags that are available at many hardware stores.

Thank you,

David L. Piet, Chair, Landscape Committee

RUPPERT LANDSCAPE TO EDGE AND MULCH BEDS

Starting the end of February Ruppert Landscape will begin its spring to fall regular maintenance in WSG starting with edging and mulching.   February 25 – 28, 2022: edging and mulching of beds on private property (up to the HVAC system) and Common Areas.  Edging will precede mulching and will take several days to complete.  Triple Shred dark mulch will again be used.

Starting in March, weather permitting, these visits are regularly scheduled for Wednesdays each week.  If Ruppert cannot come to WSG on a particular Wednesday, the crew will try to come the next day.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE OF ROOFS

To: All Weathersfield Residents

To further improve our drive towards preventative maintenance (heading off trouble before it starts) we asked our roofing company to inspect our roofs and identify any problems during a planned roof cleaning project.  Once the roofs were blown free of leaves and pine needles in late Fall, the contractor did find a considerable number of defects that included most of the roofs in our community.

After reviewing the work, we have decided to have it done in one block. It will begin on February 14 and likely proceed until the end of the month.

This letter is to make you aware that the contractor will be needing access to most of the roofs in the community during that time. We realize this can at times be inconvenient, but we hope to have all your cooperation. As we get closer to the onset of this work, we will attempt to notify you of the schedule for the individual Closes.

Failure to address the potential weaknesses and other defects would likely result in roof leaks that could lead to further damage to the interiors of our homes and costly repairs.

Please feel free to contact Larry Layton or Steve Krasnow with any questions that you may have.

Sincerely,

David Spencer, Weathersfield HOA Board President

WEATHERSFIELD HOMEOWNERS AND RESIDENTS

As was recently shared on the WSG website, Ruppert Landscape will begin its fall and winter general maintenance in WSG starting on:

Wednesday, November 24, 2021, and Monday, December 06, 2021

Maintenance on these two days includes leaf removal and general turf maintenance. Mowing will be done on an as needed basis. Please mark your calendars for these dates and please refrain from putting out brown paper leaf bags or other yard debris until the night before, or the day of, routine maintenance on these dates.

Starting in December, Ruppert will spot prune and begin preparing beds for mulch as well as general cleanup and maintenance.

To reiterate:

Ruppert recently completed aeration and overseeding on the grass on both sides of the Weathersfield road and the right side of Swim and Croquet to the T-junction at Village Way on November 12, 2021. For the grass to germinate over the fall and into the spring: (1) please do not park vehicles on the grassy edges along these roads and (2) notify contractors or other visitors not to park on the grass.

It would be appreciated if all residents are mindful of keeping WSG clean and beautiful over the coming months. Thank you.

Additional dates will be forthcoming. Please check the Weathersfield website, www.weathersfieldsg.org for upcoming dates.

WHAT ARE THOSE PLASTIC-COVERED SIGNS ON SWIM AND CROQUET? (UPDATED)

Many of our neighbors have been asking about the covered signs that have “popped up” along Swim and Croquet. This street is one of 25 roadways in Fearrington Village (and 64 roadways in Chatham County) that will be resurfaced by the North Carolina Department of Transportation sometime between now and June 30, 2022. Unfortunately, more specific dates are not available from the NCDOT at this time.

The specific roadways in Fearrington Village that are scheduled to be resurfaced are marked in blue on the attached maps.
