Spring is officially here. And with Spring comes the traditional annual HCA Cluster Clean-Up and meet-your-neighbors event, this year planned for two weekends: Saturday and Sunday, March 22-23 and 29-30. NOAA National Weather Service seven-day forecasts are for perfect yard work weather: partly sunny and windy with a high near 67F on Saturday March 22, and mostly cloudy with a high near 50F on Sunday, March 23. HCA asks that Members assist with the following tasks:
- Gather fallen tree debris from Common Areas clusterwide
- Cut and remove invasive vines climbing Common Area trees
- Clear overgrown brush from originally-grassy streambed areas
- Stack all debris near footpaths for easy removal by contractors
In addition, Directors will be working to clear overgrown Common Area hillside brush near Block 3 as requested by Members. CAUTION: Members should not touch or dig near high voltage pad-mounted electrical transformers. And in weeks following the Clean-Up, HCA will coordinate with contractors to remove stacked tree and brush debris, to mow grassy areas, to blow clear plaza areas, and to powerwash Block 1-3 concrete stairs and plazas stained by trees since last Spring. Contact an HCA Director for more information.
