Dear Neighbors,

With the weather turning warmer and no rain in the forecast, this is a wonderful time to enjoy Kent Woodlands! 

This is also a great time to focus on defensible space and home hardening against wildfire. In fact, according to the survey many of you participated in recently, fire safety and vegetation management was the #1 ranked priority that respondents believed our CC&R's should address. There are many of you that do a great job maintaining your property as necessary to reduce the risk of embers from a nearby fire from igniting your home and the vegetation near it. However, unfortunately, we can't say the same for many of our neighbors. Our board always tries to begin the process of fire mitigation on member's properties as friendly as possible, but at times we've had to take enforcement and even legal action (with successful results) to enforce our CC&Rs as it relates to this topic. 

On a related note, the power/utility line Undergrounding Committee, made up of volunteers throughout the neighborhood, is preparing for a community meeting this fall where residents can learn a lot more about the process and costs involved. Stay tuned for more details. 

Sincerely,

Jeff Leh, President
