Changes to the Sprinkler System

With the recent installation of sprinkler zones and sod at ten new units, the sprinkler controllers have had to be re-programmed. Because of the added zones, I have had to move the start times earlier and where possible, I have selected the start times so that the last zone on the controller will finish by sunrise so that they don't interfere with our early risers who are out and about then. You can read more about the new settings, plus the latest on the well, by going here.

From that page and the others it links to, you can tell that I've spent considerable time documenting the entire sprinkler system so we will all know how and when it operates and where to go if the water has to be manually shut off due to a broken part in the system. I've also been working to identify and fix
sprinkler heads that are stuck or buried so that the system will operate as it was originally intended.

If you spot a problem with a sprinkler head or an unwatered area, call me first at 726-0317 and I will come over and take a look at it. If I am unable to fix the problem myself, I will then submit a service request to Kramer-Triad who will contact H2O Irrigation to perform the needed work.

Sod at new units

I spoke with Tom at the sales office today and he informs me that remainder of the sod installation at the two new units on Lexington North and Lexington West will be completed after the construction of decks at the rear of those units. Deck installation is scheduled to begin within one week.

03 July 2008 UPDATE: The decks were finished earlier this week and the remainder of the sod was laid today.

Update - Mulching, edging, etc.

Due to recent weather conditions, United will be starting their work on Tuesday, June 17th rather than on Monday as originally scheduled.
