Seasonal Utility Usage
Every summer we get complaints that the electric bill is too high, every winter we get the same complaints about gas. It all depends on the weather. If July was a much warmer month than the year before, your September bill will reflect this. You will likely see high bills for October and November too. In the winter, homes that use electric space heaters will also experience very high usage. Please remember that utilities are billed 2 months in arrears.
If we see unusually high or low meter reads we do have a system in place to double check the reads before a bill is generated.
Other factors that could affect gas and electric usage are:
- Leaks in your ducting or furnace.
- Old inefficient furnace or AC unit.
- Electrical vehicle charging.

Solicitors
Solicitation in the community is illegal (with the exception of religious and political organizations). If someone knocks on your door attempting to sell you something, tell them you are not interested and call the Sheriff. They can arrest the person for soliciting without a license and trespassing. This is the most effective way to deal with the problem. Please be sure to notify the office with the n ame or the company, if possible. Do not buy or contract with these companies. Often their methods are predatory and you will not get a good deal.

Security
If you encounter suspicious activity or school kids wandering in the park, do not engage them. Call the Sheriff, they have been authorized to arrest people who do not belong here. If law enforcement is aware of unlawful activity they will increase their routine patrols, which will lead to a reduction in this type of activity.

Pests
If you have a fruit tree please pick up fallen fruit. If you have bird feeders, please make sure to clean up the bird seed. Fallen fruit, dropped bird seed and unkept yards attract rats and vermin. Rats and vermin attract coyotes.

Get Ready For Winter
Check your gutters and downspouts. All water coming off the roof must be directed to the street or storm drain |
Trash Cans
Extra recycle and regular trash cans are available for loan. Call or email the office to request them, and please allow 24 hours for delivery. They are always in demand so we limit them to 2 per household. If we have any left at the end of the week we will drop them off. Leave them out after trash pick up and we will retrieve them. |
