Notice of Sidewalk Repairs – Friday, February 20th, 2026

Attention Owners,

The Vendor Safe Sidewalks is going to be performing sidewalk repairs throughout the Community on the following date: Friday, February 20, 2026

Important items to consider while the repairs are taking place:

  • The work will begin as early as 8:00 AM.
  • Very loud equipment will be in use; you will hear noise intermittently throughout the day.
  • The crew will close small sections of the sidewalk as they move through the Community.
  • Please use caution when navigating around areas where work is taking place.
  • For your personal safety, please stay clear of work crews and equipment.
  • There is no schedule for the locations of repairs. The Vendor may complete repairs to multiple areas at the same time, creating work flow best suited for the project.
  • Owners/Residents should close their curtains or drapes for privacy.
  • This schedule is weather-dependent.
  • Please note that there are some areas of sidewalk that will not be addressed during this schedule—this is because additional work (such as tree removals) must take place first prior to concrete repairs. Additional notices will be sent for those locations once work has been scheduled.

Owners with rentals are responsible for relaying this information to their tenants and/or Property Managers.

Neither the HOA, AMS NW, nor the Vendor will be responsible for personal items damaged during maintenance.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this upcoming maintenance, please contact Association Management Services NW at [email protected] or (503) 598-0552. Thank you for your cooperation!

Spring Turf Moss Application Notification

Scheduled date for the Common Areas is Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025.
Scheduled date for the Cottage Homes is Tuesday, April 22nd, 2025.

To maintain your investment of living in a garden community, yearly landscape basic treatments are necessary to keep your maintenance cost low and ensure the health of your investment. The following outlines your yearly planned treatments.

For moss applications, we spray the turf areas where moss develops. This application is to eliminate moss, which can become unsightly and can overtake turf. The process takes approximately 5 hours to apply.

To ensure the treatment is most effective and activated properly, we will be temporarily programming your irrigation system to run shortly after the application.

This light watering helps the product absorb into the moss and begin working quickly, promoting a healthier, more vibrant lawn as we move into the growing season and to prevent turf damage.

There is no need for any action on your part our team will handle both the application and irrigation timing. Once the treatment has had time to work, your irrigation will be returned to its regular schedule.

Stay off the turf until dry, approximately 2-3 hours.
Recommended service to be applied in April/May and December/January.
Material Safety Data Sheets are available upon request (SDS Labels)

Thank you,
Pacific Landscape Management

You will want to provide a brief explanation of what seems to be wrong (is it continuously running, not running at all or not facing optimally or watering the street or sidewalk?) and where it is located. If possible, include pictures if emailing.

Pet Reminders

Please abide by the following guidelines regarding pets;

When outside always keep your pet on a leash (it is Washington County law). Do not let pets run loose within the Community, or within neighboring Communities. This includes cats.

Always pick up your pets’ waste and dispose of it properly.

Be aware that you can be fined for not picking up after your pet.

The cost to clean up pet waste and repair the damage to the landscaping is substantial; this cost is passed onto each Homeowner, even if they do not own a pet.

To report barking dogs, dogs that are off leash or running loose, you can call Washington County Animal Control at 503-846-7041.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
