As stated in a letter sent to all homeowners in December, Mill House Properties is transitioning to a new online system (AppFolio) in late January. It will offer a convenient way for homeowners to set up an online account to see their account history and balances, pay monthly assessments online (fee for credit cards), in addition to other benefits. Homeowners who have completed and returned the contact information form included in the December letter will receive an email invitation from AppFolio when the system is “live.” A copy of the contact information form can be found here.
If you are currently enrolled in monthly auto draft, this will continue until Mill House Properties has completed transitioning to AppFolio. You will be notified if any changes to this process occur with the new system. The monthly draft normally takes place on approximately the 5th business day; however, the draft will be delayed this January while Mill House Properties transitions to the new system.
Please email Mill House Properties’ finance department at hoafinance@millhouseproperties.com with any further questions.

Pruning and Lawn Mowing Information
PRUNING–Ruppert will prune shrubs in the front and side of homes (up to the AC units) and the common areas in each close throughout the community beginning on Monday, September 16 – WEATHER PERMITTING. They will start with the Eleagnus throughout the community and then focus their pruning on the remaining common area plants and the front and side of homes.
PLEASE DO NOT INTERRUPT THE RUPPERT WORKERS WITH ANY REQUESTS OR ISSUES. CONTACT HOPE WEBER OR PEGGY AKERS WITH YOUR COMMENTS.
Tag with colored tape any shrub(s) you do not want pruned. Colored tape will be placed on the bench in each close in a plastic bag. When you have used the tape, return it in the plastic bag to the bench for your neighbors to use. The tapes will be collected after pruning is completed. Within 2 weeks following the pruning, please remove any tape that you have put on the shrubs.
LAWN MOWING–Ruppert aerated and overseeded the lawns on Monday, 09/09/19. They have advised us that they will not mow for the next several weeks in order to allow the lawn seeds to take hold. Please understand the grass may be longer than we are used to but there is a valid reason for it.
Thank you – The Landscape Committee
