Important Notice regarding Irrigation — 5/27/2020

Dear Fox Glen co-owners

It’s very unfortunate and beyond our control – I just found out that our irrigation system won’t be turned on until mid-June.  See the email thread below with Jeff.

If we’re lucky, rainfall will keep our lawns in reasonable shape until the irrigation system is turned on 3 weeks from now.  If dry patches develop, the only choice we co-owners have is to water ourselves.  I wish it were otherwise.

Mowing, trimming, and lawn treatments (fertilization, weed control) are unaffected.

Yes, I know.  I tried but they are completely booked out and already behind schedule due to Covid.  Because Fox Glen start-up is a 2 day job, they could not realistically see 2 days’ worth of cancellations between now and then.  As I said, it is my fault the system was not ready for them.  I take full blame.  Sorry.

Are you sure those dates are right?  That’s 3 weeks from now!  So we fell to the end of the line??

Hi John,

We were initially scheduled for Monday and Tuesday of this week but because of my absent-mindedness, I could not get Pittsfield Township out to install the meters until yesterday.  Therefore, we had to swap dates with another community and are now scheduled for the 17th & 18th.  Hopefully, we won’t get too dried out by then.  Sorry.

Jeff

Hi, Jeff,

Do you happen to know when Garrett plans to turn on our irrigation system?  The lawns are looking very healthy right now, but hot weather is approaching.
