Landscape Committee Report

 The Committee met on Monday, Jan.30, for a walking,  visual assessment of the entrance ways.  Todd Cox of Precision Cuts and Services and Dick joined the group.  We discussed the condition of the plants and the need to replace some, move others, professionally trim and fertilize the areas. The advise was very enlightening, ie: which plants were being over watered, which needed a different method of pruning etc.

Suggestions were given for plants that  would do well in the small semi-circles we have in front of each of our signs.  This area was never completed during the last planting.   The group also discussed painting the signs a brighter color.

Dick  went over the irrigation system with Todd. 

The  committee will meet again on Mon. Feb. 7 and visit several nurseries to check out the above mentioned new plant selections.  A final selection of plants  will be done  after an estimate has been given to the Board.

NO  PLANTING  WILL BE DONE BEFORE THE DANGER OF COLD WEATHER HAS PASSED.             

Committee Members:  Utta Rosenberg, Patricia Cramer, Lorraine Falcon, Irene Nassor,  Wanza Murray*, Beverly Hilton* (* unable to make the 1/30/11 meeting)
