Maintenance Issue Reports

1619 CHIANTI LN - The sodded vacant area (PG & E easement)adjacent to our lot at 1619 Chianti Ln. has been allowed to get very dry and brown. Apparently, in an attempt to revive it, sprinklers were turned on sometime in the morning of June 4 and allowed to run continuously until approx 10AM on June 5. This excessive watering over that amount of time caused the soil to become saturated and soft. Then the high winds of June 6 blew over a tree planted in our yard along the west wall bordering our lot. A grounds and maintenance crew needs to upright and stabilize the tree which is now at about a 30 degree cant from vertical. This needs to be done right away.

Of potentially greater concern is the fact that this unnaturally excessive water can seep under or slab/foundation and cause dynamic changes in the soil beneath resulting in structural damage to our home. And we certainly don't need any more of these issues here in Trilogy!

(this notice was sent to Management Trust on June 7)

A number of plants, shrubs, and trees have died. Grasses are an eyesore. The dead hedges at the wine barn, the over watered olive trees, and the unsightly grasses at Miwok Park. The olive trees leading up to the club on Trilogy Parkway a number of the olive trees have been over watered and there is a standing accumulation of water under them of about 3 inches or more. If the situation is not quickly resolved, the olive trees will die. This not only means that they will need to be replaced, but also it will come at a cost which the homeowners will have to absorb. If you share my concerns, it is my hope that this information will spur you into action, and that you will write to both the HOA & the board.

1619 CHIANTI LN - Drainage on vacant lot adjacent to us (PG & E easement) needs to be reworked. (More than a shovelful or two of dirt, I might add) When the irrigation sprinklers are left on excess water, instead of draining to the street, seeps under the block wall, floods the west portion of our lot and will continue to seep under our slab. A tree in our yard has already blown over due to supersaturated soil. Potential soil instability and resulting damage to our home exists. Excessive irrigation can be addressed; excessive winter rains cannot. It's 100 degrees now........soon it will be raining!

We have two oak trees outside our fence above the olive grove that are severely blighted. They are losing all their curled leaves rapidly. Please come by and see if you can rescue these beautiful trees. 1154 St. Julien St., Bordeaux.

The “park grass area” on Miwok is horrible looking. Weeds, dead plants, overgrown olive trees, dead and bald grassy areas. I was hoping TerraCare would be improving this but it doesn’t seem like it.

V-ditch drain is completely blocked Miwok Ave across the street from Miwok park

The heavy equipment vehicles ran over the plantings in the center of the driveways at the Solera gate. We are concerned that the irrigation in that area has been compromised.

Fescue grass area on the slope at back of Bordeaux Park should be mowed. There are many patches that have gone to seed and can be hazardous to our dogs if they inhale them.

First, thank you for bringing back Miwok Park grass area, but the very north end near Chianti is now dead. The sprinklers had been working fine, but are now not covering this area. Perez used to kill weeds along the wrought iron fencing in the bark. The bark now is extremely thin and weeds are growing rapidly. My husband has been pulling them by hand behind our house, but other houses have the same weed problem. Will the bark be replaced in this area to reduce the amount of weed growth?

The roses in the Bordeaux Village at park have not been winter trimmed. I noticed the roses by the gates have all been trimmed back but not at the park on the side of St. Julians street.

My wife and I live at 1750 Chardonnay Court. Every day I walk our dog on the "ridge" next to our house which has a lot of olive trees. These trees have historically been very healthy. However, this year I've noticed that several of the trees are doing something I've not seen before. One tree has leaves that are are turning yellow and dropping lots of leaves (in one location so far) but other trees have also started to have yellow leaves at other locations, but not has much as the first one. We have lived here since 2014 and not experienced this before. Should I be worried about the health of these trees? Maybe someone should come and look at them??? I would be happy to have someone come by my house so I could show it to them. (BTW, we will be out of town beginning on June 2, so it would be good if someone could come by before then and I'll be happy to point out my concern.) We really like the trees, they've added much beauty to the area. We don't want to lose them. P.S. We often have other people who walk their dogs along the ridge too. I'm sure they would appreciate healthy trees too!

I live next to the Bordeaux Latour gate (1691 Gamay Lane) so the community wall is on 2 sides of my property. The side wall that is next call box and gate has 2 loose caps. By caps, I mean the white top has separated from the beige bricks. One of them is totally loose. My gardener showed me how he could totally raise it up off the brick below. Is suspect this may have happened when the trees were taken down during the re-landscaping of the area around the gate. That top is the 3rd one from center raised top. If you are looking from the new landscaping there are 3 new Italian cypress in the middle. Look 3 tops towards the gate. The other bad one is on the same wall but almost to the corner of Latour and Vineyards. There is a huge gap between the 2nd & 3rd top and it looks like the wall may be tilting? Maybe one of the old trees had a large root??
