Update - 27th August 2012


Tropical Storm Isaac

Well, Tropical Strom Isaac was nothing more than a little rain maker. As of 8:45 AM this morning, the tornado warning for Lee County has been canceled. Due to schools and some businesses being closed, Michelle, the cleaning staff (Vito and Sabrina) and the sales team (Julie, Mike and Laurie) will not be in today.

Please be careful in the breezeways of the towers, the floors are wet and can be slippery. Greenscapes' service manager will be coming by the property today to move away all the palm fronds that fell during the storm and will have the crews pick them up tomorrow.

Landscape

I met with the landscapers last week and here are a few things we found, and actions that are going to be taken:

The next scheduled pruning is the week of October 10th.

They will be pruning all Bougainvillea, Arboricola and Green Island Ficus.

They will be cutting back the Mexican Petunias by 50%.

They will be removing the dead fronds on the palms at the pool area.

On the North side of the tennis courts, they will be removing the weeds and dead plants from the Jasmine.

Irrigation was inspected again last week and I met with the irrigation tech. Due to all of the rain we have received and the west end of the property not drying out, they decided to turn the irrigation off and monitor the turf weekly. This will hopefully help this area to dry out (once the rains stop).

The next Integrated Pest Management Services will be scheduled for the week of October 8th.

Next Irrigation check (unless called in earlier for an issue) will be the third week in September.

Also on the backside of the west tower close to pool area Greenscapes had a mower break a hydraulic line and leak some hydraulic fluid on the walkway pavers. They will have it cleaned up before the end of next week, weather permitting of course.

The service manager was out here on last Friday working on hand weeds at the pool deck. They were already sprayed with weed killer the prior week but the area was looking pretty bad still. He will be back out this week to finish up the area.

 

As always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
