Ponds

Stantec Engineering has been working with the Board of Directors and the HOA landscaper to improve pond bank conditions. Pond banks will be left un-cut from the water edge to approx 24” up. This is to allow landscape growth and improvement to the banks.  

Homeowners are asked to be very careful when using fertilizers in their rear yard. The chemical that washes into the pond when it rains is resulting in negative conditions on the pond surface.  See attached reports about storm drain ponds that are informative on homeowner maintenance of ponds.
