October 6, 2025 | Villages | Sprinklers throughout all of Trilogy should be adjusted to prevent water spraying onto asphalt pavement. This constant wetting of the pavement causes premature failure, washing away of the binder leaving a rough exposed aggregate surface. In addition if there are cracks in the area water seeps into sub-base and can cause pot holes. Now is the time to check them before the new slurry seal is washed off, and they should be checked and adjusted periodically to keep them spraying correctly.
I note to residents as a friendly reminder to check their sprinklers to help save our newly sealed streets.

October 9, 2025 | Gates | Hello,
I just walked out of the Bordeaux pedestrian gate and in through the Sonoma pedestrian gate on my way to Firenze, and there is a problem with both. The pedestrian Bordeaux gate fails to latch automatically, and the pedestrian gate at Sonoma does not unlatch long enough to pull it open while it is being unlocked.

Robert: I adjusted the Bordeaux gate closing speed and latching. Tested it multiple times, now latches. The Sonoma gate needs an electronic striker. One is on order.

October 10, 2025 | Wine Barn | WINE BARN RAT(S): Last evening the Beer Club held a potluck. In attendance was an "uninvited" RAT, who ran in and out of the barn, under the dining tables and around people's feet while we ate. Some people thought it was a mouse, but it was 4-5 inches long (minus the tail); a little big for a mouse. Perhaps it's an adolescent rat. If so there's probably more than one from a litter living around the barn. There is a Beer Club Chili Cook Off scheduled on October 20 with 150 people registered to attend. Hopefully the rodent problem at the barn will be resolved by that date.

October 11, 2025 | Landscape | This is from July 17, 2022. Over three years ago the HOA was going to reapply bark to the common area around the upper and lower Miwok Park. That was delayed because of the PG&E project. The application of bark was placed on hold, to be completed sometime in the near future. I have a view fence that overlooks the upper park and the space between the fence and the park grass is great for growing weeds. Terra Care sprays some of those weeds, but not all, maybe once or twice a year. They do not spray the spurge which is a prolific spreader of seeds. I have been hand weeding the area behind my fence about every two weeks. New bark won't solve the problem completely, but it would help. That bark project is now Marked Completed on this site.
It has NOT been completed! I am still pulling weeds by hand to avoid the unsightly mess that would occur if it I did not pull the weeds. Terra Care's spraying of some of the weeds over the years doesn't even begin to address the issue. I hate to play this card, but i pay HOA dues the same as everyone else and I shouldn't have to look at unsightly weeds or have seeds easily blown into my backyard and have more weeds there. I still go out every two to three weeks and pull all the weeds by hand. Bark won't completely solve the problem, but it would certainly help. Please address this problem.
