Maintenance Issue Reports

Miwok exit gate not closing. Beeping!

This is an ongoing issue with many requests over the years. The bushes on the upper half of Trilogy Parkway going up to the clubhouse need to be trimmed. Each year the maintenance staff only trim half way up the parkway and stop (for no apparent reason). Due to this, the bushes are in very poor shape and don't even closely resemble the nice and full and healthy bushes on the lower half. You can see the actual point where maintenance has stopped. Three years ago myself and another neighbor met with HOA staff and gardeners and both assured me that this would be remedied by repairing damaged water lines, replacement of dead bushes, additional fertilizer to repair the damage, and annual topping to keep the bushes healthy. Three years and multiple requests later, the bushes are worse than ever. While the lower portion was recently topped and most likely fertilized as an annual task and look amazing, the gardeners stopped at the same place they always do and left the upper half alone. Please can you please treat the upper bushes on the parkway with the same care you treat the lower half. Not asking for anything extra, just the same level of care. Respectfully, Linda Tarantino

Latour exit gates having issues again

I understand that you are working to repair the Latour gates. Just an FYI that the Latour entrance gate remains open. See photo below. Thank you for your continued attention to the operation of Bordeaux gates.

On the gate, near pickleball court #4, one part of the gate latch (the part attached to the gate) is loose. That part has only one screw (it has been that way for a long time), and that screw is now partially stripped and cannot be fully tightened.

The TV’s on the recumbent bikes are, once again, not working. 2 of the bikes get a few channels & the other one gets a few more. How long do we have to wait for functioning equipment ? This is beyond reasonable time allowed to have this ongoing problem resolved. It’s been ongoing for a year.
The cost of new recumbent bikes is a fraction of what you want to invest in “the kitchen”. Replace the darn bikes already.

WATER COLLECTING DRAINS

I have noticed another issue that needs attention soon and that is the cute rain collecting buckets attached to the gutters at the Wine Barn have come apart and many of the buckets I have found throughout the Wine Barn property. I have myself gathered them up and put them on the ground under each corner area where they are associated with but if we don't repair them soon they will be lost and then we would have to replace them entirely at additional cost.

In the Komei room there's a floor mirror against the wall. This mirror is not secured to the wall, therefore it will fall on people if anyone bumps into it or moves it by accident. It has fallen on us a couple of times. Perhaps it could be secured to the wall in some way.

The 3 pillars supporting the Miwok gates are stained and the middle one has a damaged cap. This was first reported as an open forum comment for the June 13th HOA meeting and nothing was corrected. It was reported on MTL as a Maintenance Issue Report on September 14th and still has not been fixed nor did I even receive a reply that the report was received. When can we expect to have this taken care of?

Please add the mailroom hours to the hours tab on the MTL website

The HOA side of the wood fence on the vineyard trail-head adjacent to 1701 Zinfandel needs to be re-stained. The old stain is peeling and bare wood is exposed. Diving on Miwok, I noticed another HOA wood fence on the eastern hillside also appears to be in need of new stain. Perhaps there should be a schedule for HOA fence maintenance if one doesn't already exist.

95% of the grass in Meritage Park is dead or dying. It is not being watered properly. There are obvious broken pipes which are part of the sprinkler system. Only 5% of the grass is getting any water at all.
Why would you install grass if you do not water it properly???
