Tree Work on West Union November 4 – 6 2024

SavaTree will be trimming the oaks and sweetgum trees on NW West Union Road from NW Oak Creek Dr to the end of the white fence during the hours of 8a to 5p each day.

Resident impact for these services should be minimal. SavaTree will re-direct traffic or block off shoulder/bike lanes as needed. Please obey direction from our Vendor. Below is some information provided regarding the upcoming service.

  1. Arrival times can vary. We do our best to give an accurate window, but some factors can cause delays. You do not need to be at the property for our crew to work on your trees.
  2. It may be necessary to reschedule the project in the case or adverse weather, or other causes that are beyond our control.
  3. Tree work may have a visible impact on your lawn and property due to the use of heavy equipment, or the dismantling of large trees. This can show up as divots, holes, sawdust, etc.
  4. While we will do our best to minimize, mitigate, and repair any such impact, we will operate under the assumption that your property can sustain the presence, weight, and movement of that equipment.



Washington County Sidewalk Repair Grants

Did you know that Washington County has a grant program that you can apply for to receive back a portion of your sidewalk repair bill? Each year the grant is funded with $100,000 to help homeowners reduce the cost of expensive sidewalk repairs. We have reposted their article about the program with links to the resources so that you can apply.

Construction season is getting started and can be a great time to repair damaged or displaced sidewalks. Property owners in the Urban Road Maintenance District can apply for reimbursement this summer on approved repairs.

Property owners are responsible for the maintenance of sidewalks adjacent to their property. The Sidewalk Repair Grant Program was created last year to help lessen the financial barriers to repair.

The Sidewalk Repair Grant Program will reimburse property owners within the URMD up to $2,000 for the repair or replacement of damaged sidewalks by a licensed contractor. Eligibility details and application instructions are available online.

The URMD funds the program, which can award up to $100,000 per fiscal year. The URMD is a service district that supports road maintenance and biking and pedestrian projects.




Do not remove Irrigation Flags

‼️ It’s been brought to Management and the Board of Directors attention that some of the irrigation flags placed by the Association’s landscaper, Pacific Landscape Management, have been removed or misplaced. This email is to request that residents do not remove or touch irrigation flags. There may be additional costs passed on to Arbor Ridge homeowners if repeated technician visits are needed to replace the flags in order for the necessary irrigation work to take place.

Thank you for your cooperation.

  • Tree Removals: Tuesday, September 5th – Thursday, September 7th
  • Tree Pruning: Monday, September 11th – Tuesday, September 12th
  • Stump Removal: Thursday, September 7th – Tuesday, September 12th

For privacy, it is recommended that you keep your blinds and curtains closed.

The vendors will be putting up “No Parking” signs on the trees to be removed. If there is a tree with this sign on it, do not park within 20 feet of both sides of the tree. This is so that the vendors will be able to safely remove the tree without risking damage to residents’ vehicles.

Please do not disrupt the vendor’s work. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Management. Neither the HOA, TMG, nor the Vendor will be responsible for personal items damaged during maintenance.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while the Association undergoes this important work.
