Maintenance Issue Reports

There are 5 dead trees in Meritage Park. They need to be replaced.

The man gate at the Solera Street entrance is not self-closing.

The vacant lot next to our home at 1619 Chianti Ln. has a SERIOUS water drainage problem that needs IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. In 2020 a similar problem existed and it was NOT promptly taken care of resulting in flooding of our side yard and trees that had become uprooted (wind) because of supersaturated soils. PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN AGAIN!! Thank you for your immediate attention.

The v-ditch behind homes on east side of Healing Rock Ct has considerable amount of leaves and debris that should be removed prior to the rains. Could cause flooding and or blocking of drain inlet.

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.

Blue Fire Hydrant Marker in the Cul-de-sac at the end of Moscato PL. This was mentioned many many months ago also. I believe the sealing puts these back on?
Thanks

No Trespassing sign at St Julien gate entrance has been hit and knocked over

Many of the newly planted young trees along Miwok and Chianti plus lower Miwok park are not securely anchored to the stakes in an upright position and are bending over due to the wind. This seems to be an ongoing repetitive issue. These are young trees and need appropriate support to keep them growing in an upright position until they are old enough to stand straight on their own. The current method of anchoring these trees apparently is not working. Please don't let these beautiful trees become like the terribly slanted tree located on Zinfandel at the entrance to the vineyard (next door to my house).

The Solera Pedestrian Gate is not working correctly.

The Key FOB Receiver light turns from red to green, but the mechanical lock does not click open.

So the work-around for some residents has been to prop the gate open when they leave.

This practice defeats the purpose of even having gates, so could you please have maintenance look at it?

Robert: The vendor for the gates will be here Weds and Thursday.

THe pedestrian gate card reader at Solera in Tuscany is not working. I tried my card on Andalucia and it works ok there so I don't think it's my card.
Thank-you.

I've noticed a number up lights under the olive trees in fountain circle are either out or on in the daytime. Also some of up lights in front entry to the club are out. These lights are a wonderful amenity and add safety to the entrance to the club. Hopefully this issue can be addressed in the near future.

As Neighborhood Watch captain, I received the follow emails from Claudia Curran regarding pedestrian gates:

First message:
“ I know you are one of the reps for our neighborhood watch in Firenze. I am passing along an ongoing observation of the Bordeaux pedestrian gates. I walk very early every morning between 5:30 am - 7 am depending on the time of the year. 99% of the time in the last few months I am finding the Bordeaux gates unsecured, especially the Latour gate. Someone is leaving them open. Maybe you can send a copy of my email to their rep for that area. Here are photos from this morning of the two gates. The first is the Latour Avenue gate, the second two are the other gate at St Julien Street which was left wide open.
Claudia”

Second message:

“Good morning Dan,

I checked out the gates further this morning. The Latour gate doesn't shut on its own; you have to push it shut. The St. Julien gate is even worse, the hydraulics on the gate don't work at all so when someone opens it, it stays wide open. Surprisingly, our Sonoma gate doesn't shut automatically now...that's new. You have to push it to close. So, it looks like these gates are getting old and not working as they should.

Maybe an email to all to be sure to manually shut these gates for our safety, especially during the holiday season. Thanks for looking into this for our community.

Merry Christmas!

Claudia Curran”.
