2023-2024 Dues Update

50% of our neighbors have paid their dues. That is an increase of 16% from last year. Thank you to those that have paid.

Lawn Mowing & Spring Cleanup

We have asked McDonald Lawn & Landscape to do our Spring Cleanup this year. There is some maintenance that needs to be done to two of the areas that is too much to ask from volunteers. They are also going to repair our Pepper Ridge sign. Mowing has been postponed a few weeks to allow two of the common areas to grow grass. We will continue to monitor.

Snow Removal Update

This past winter we had two significant snow storms, January 15th with accumulation just below 4” and January 19th with accumulation above 4”. Our contractor at that time was not available to us when we needed them. We then switched to Ramone’s Landscaping. They were already doing a couple of the surrounding communities which included parts of Mermaid Blvd. It only made sense to have them include Pepper Ridge. On February 13th our section of Mermaid Blvd was plowed by Ramone’s Landscaping and we could see the difference. As funds provide we would like to continue to plow Mermaid Blvd for accumulation 2” and above and the rest of the community above 4”.

Thank you & we look forward to seeing you!
