Maintenance Issue Reports

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??

Over one year 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. Is that still on hold or will that 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 grass is great for growing weeds. Terra Care sprays some of those weeds maybe once or twice a year. They do not spray the spurge which is a prolific spreader of seeds. I have been weeding the area behind my fence about every two weeks. New bark won't solve the problem completely, but it would help.

There is also a watering issue near Chianti on the upper park. There is a large area that is dry because it is not getting water from a sprinkler. Near that area between the grass and Chianti there is constant water runoff into the dirt, (that should be covered with bark) causing the area to puddle with water and be very muddy. This poses a slip hazard for people that leave the trail and take a short cut over to Chianti. It is also an attraction for wasps. Thank you for your response.

There are weeds that are totally overgrown in common area on symphony circle. It is the access to the olive orchard behind the exterior wall. (1525 Symphony Cir ) It looks horrible! There needs to be maintenance on this access area!

The hedges on Trilogy Parkway approximately 1/2 way up on the right hand side (as you are going up the parkway) need to be trimmed again. This has been an issue for several years and I am hoping we can have the hedges maintained and looking like the same hedges on the lower section of the Parkway. The only way this can happen is with consistent trimming the top of the hedges, proper irrigation and fertilizing on a regular basis.

They have sprinklers running in the heat of the at the Sonoma gate Entrance.

Trail below Vineyard behind the Bocce Park and along the trail towards the bend in the trail: With every rain mud from the vineyard washes down onto the gravel trail and moves closer and closer to the homes. There are several areas where the mud has reached the v-ditch. I see that waddle was placed at the base of the vineyard along the Chardonnay side of the trail. The same thing needs to be done along the California Trail side of the vineyard ASAP before we have mud coming into our yards or flowing into the park.

Two leaks in the irrigation pipe along the trail in Upper MiWok park.

We would like to ask that the landscape staff trim down the plant growing on the other side of the wall on the side of our house. We live on the right side of the Latour gate. The plant is starting to come over the top of the sound wall. It is a climber and has started to come over the sound wall cap and it growing into our plants. The top of the sound wall is too high for us to get to.

It is also growing under the wall and coming up in our landscape. We realize there isn't anything that can be done about that but having to deal with both the top and the bottom of our wall to remove a plant that isn't in ours a bit much for us. My husband uses a walker and I have a bad back getting on a ladder to reach over to the other side of the sound wall is very difficult. Thank you for any help you can give us.
