common ground maintenance is the HOA’s largest expense, mostly mowing the grass. but sometimes there are unexpected expenses:-{ this doe expired yesterday on 
parcel B behind 4 Coloma Ct; it was pretty ripe when Xceptional Wildlife Removal came today. They surmised that cause of death was most likely vehicular impact. There were no puncture wounds and the animal looked to be healthy at time of death.
The ruts cut by a neighbor off his meds, as well as nearly a foot of sediment filling the culvert, were restored & reseeded last month.
Our contractor, Allan Hawkins, did a great job!
parcel J got torn up yesterday:
apparently by the same disturbed person who made the mailbox deposits, and is in custody.
the hoa will have to decide whether to seek restitution, but we should also decide if we want to make a rice paddy…numerous homeowners have expressed interest in using the common ground for community gardens;-)
Several of our neighbors have found trash in their mailboxes this week…it’s a sad state of affairs when the first thought was a hate crime, but 45 is to blame for that:-\
I spoke to our mailman today, who told me one of our residents had been making those deposits, and had handed him a pinecone, as if it were a religious talisman. The resident has been detained for psychiatric evaluation following his rampage through our common ground.
