Maintenance Issue Reports

I understand that you are working to repair the Latour gates. Just an FYI that the Latour entrance gate remains open. See photo below. Thank you for your continued attention to the operation of Bordeaux gates.

I was unable to submit the photo

I would like the bushes on Trilogy Parkway behind my house topped and trimmed at least a foot, preferably even with the top of the iron fence. I live at 1966 Sacred Mountain Lane and in order for the bushes to grow full and healthy, they need to be topped annually. Several have died over the years due to improper care, as this has been an ongoing issue for several years. I was also advised last year that the bushes would be topped annually in the spring as part of the standard maintenance program and that I would not need to send in a request as I have since I moved into the home in 2019. I also watched maintenance staff top and trim only the bushes behind 1958 Sacred Mountains home today, leaving the rest of the block undone. Why is that? If you look at those bushes, you can see a noticeable difference versus the bushes behind my home.

I’d like to report a damaged fence needing repair.
It’s at Bordeaux Park.
South east corner hillside. The fence is a wooden two rail fence from the park floor up the hillside (in/near the olive grove) to the back yards of the adjacent residences.
Tow rails are out of place needing repair.

Thank you,

**** Response from HOA - This has been reported to the City to address as they confirmed it's their responsibility. Fence posts need to be reset in concrete. *******

In library room, two bulbs out, just over chess tables..
Requested front desk to contact maintenance 3 times
within last week….someone referred me to this sight…
Please change bulbs (“LOW HANGING FRIUT”)

In the back right corner of Monte Rosa park (city park located between Bordeaux and Tuscany) there is a gate that allows access to and from the Montepulciano vineyard. The gate has a card key reader, but the gate opens without using an access key. Just yank on it an it opens. I recall months ago there was a cable lock on that gate preventing it from opening, but the cable lock is not there anymore. I see that Bordeaux residents are using that gate but I think it should have a lock to prevent non-residents from using it to enter the vineyards (and therefore enter Bordeaux without any restrictions). -

*****Message from VAMC - We are currently working with the City to get this working for our residents. We have locked this gate to close access off to the public. Once resolved, we will send out a mass email to our residents. - JW ****

In the Komei room there's a floor mirror against the wall. This mirror is not secured to the wall, therefore it will fall on people if anyone bumps into it or moves it by accident. It has fallen on us a couple of times. Perhaps it could be secured to the wall in some way.

In Tuscany Village, the following street lights are on during the day, 205152, 205120, 250144, 205155, 205160, 205162, 205163 and probably more since my daily walk does not cover the entire village.

Also, a number of houses have burned out address lights. Perhaps the night security watch could record the burned out address locations so the owners could be notified. Even though the address lights are on 24/7 (for no reason), it is very difficult to see that the bulbs are out during the daytime so the owners are probably unaware. The address lights use two 2825 bulbs (12V, 5W) and are available at Amazon, Ace Hardware and most automotive parts stores.

Inside Miwok Exit Gate. The landscaping was never finished. I think they thought it was part of the house by the gate.

Irrigation problem in Bordeaux Park. Flower bed along sidewalk on Latour is flooded and lawn is saturated in some areas.

Is it possible to replace the tennis court light switch with a 2 hour timer?

It has been verified that poison bait has been placed in the vineyards near the hiking trail by Miwok and Tempranillo.
This is not acceptable as all the animals that will feed on poisoned carcasses would also likely be killed.
Golden eagles, red-tail hawks, kestrels, foxes and a whole host of other animals are directly threatened.
Put out cage traps if needed but please remove the poison ASAP.
See Nextdoor post by a Trilogy resident for picture of poison bait.

It would be great if you could do something about the mic stand in the event center. Today was the second event I was at recently where the presenter had a heck of a time as the mic won't stay in position, constantly slipping down. This happened at the Comedy show and today at the WOW event. It looked very frustrating for the presenter who can't always be holding the microphone in their hands. Thank-you.

Just inside the Miwok gate, a water valve is leaking & the planter is full of water.
