Water Reminder

It sure has been a rainy month! It has been great for the park and our lawns. With the summer months coming, we did want to remind you about some water etiquette:

First, when it is raining, please turn off your sprinklers. The rain will do a good enough job on its own of watering your lawn.

Second, you only need to water an established lawn about three times a week according to the Utah Division of Water Resources.

Third, it is best to not water your lawn in the heat of the day -- between the hours of 10 AM and 6 PM. During these hours a lot of the water simply evaporates, leaving your lawn still thirsty and our water bills higher.

If you have questions about water conservation I recommend the Utah Division of Water Resources webpage. They also include a page specifically about conserving water in your home. It is a quick and easy reference. These websites are great resources and we highly encourage that you look at them.

Please be a courteous neighbor, and do your part to conserve water. When someone abuses their water privileges we all pay for it.

Things are happening!

You all may have noticed that work is slowly happening on the parks! We have most of the volleyball pit in park one finished. It should hopefully be done before the end of the week. In park one, the benches are about ready. We are waiting for some replacement parts, then we will get those up ASAP.

Park two is ready for play ground equipment, and then it will be seeded.

We remind you all to be polite and considerate to the landscapers, etc. while they are here working on our parks. Also, please don't abuse the equipment once it is in place. If you have children, please make sure they use the equipment properly, so it will last. Thank you for your patience as we have tried to get the parks done!
