Landscaping

You are a week or so away from needing to apply a turf pre-emergent on the lawn. This will help prevent weeds from germinating in the Fall.

Mid-September, it will be time to fertilize the lawn and your beds.

Nutsedge

Nutsedge is a persistent perennial weed that is difficult to control in lawns and gardens.

Do not pull this weed. There is a nutlet/tuber on the root. If the entire plant is not removed, it will encourage more growth.

A common treatment is Sedgehammer.

Dallisgrass

This weed needs to be tackled a few different ways. Manually removing it is best if you can get all of the rhizomes.

Otherwise, apply a pre-emergent (Spring) to prevent seeds from germinating and a post-emergent once you see the weed in your yard.

There are selective post-emergents available. These can target the specific weed.

Spurge

Pulling is the best course of action for this weed. Spurge grows in a flat clump. There is a shallow tap root. Wet the lawn, and gently pull to remove.

Otherwise, use pre- and post-emergents to help control the spread.

How do the violation stages work?

All drives are conducted as "cite what we see." Board Members conduct drives with or without management. Resident concerns are also taken into account.

Emory Crossing sends out a Courtesy Notice for anything that does not meet community standards. While the letter language is a bit intimidating (yay, legal speak), this notice is an "FYI, there is something that needs to be addressed."

Depending on the reason for the notice, the cure period is usually 10 days. After the cure period, another notice can be sent. This is the Notice of Fine. "Hey, if you don't address this, you will be fined next time."

If a third notice is received, the fines begin and can escalate if the situation isn't resolved for a full 6 month cure period. After 6 months of no notices for that category, the letter resets to Courtesy.

Example: Say you leave your trash can out on 2/1 and receive a notice. You forget on 4/1, the letter is escalated to the next stage. If you don't forget again until 10/2, the notice resets to Courtesy.
