3 Volunteers Needed: The Board is looking for 3 volunteers to assist in updating the boards as you exit each Hedgerow for Hedgerows 1, 2, and 4. This takes less than 1 hour a month and can be done on your own time. You will be instructed as to what information to put on there and can add your own spin to it if you so choose.

Want to make a reservation of a Hedgerow amenity (pavilion, tennis, or pickleball) or lost your amenity keycard? 

See the website information on how to sign-up for an account if you don't have one and make reservations of Hedgerow amenities. The website also covers the process for requesting a keycard from the board and mailing the replacement cost check to CMA. https://www.yourhedgerow.com/pool-tennis

Architectural Control Reminders: As spring arrives and more projects around the house and yards start to happen, a reminder that some of these projects need HOA Architectural Control approval. For all updates & changes to exterior of homes & yards, including but not limited to: painting, exterior remodeling/renovations, landscaping, fencing, re-roofing or any structural change to house or any major changes to your yard. Please provide to the ACC and Board a home improvement application with detailed information - drawings, plans, color swatches, etc. We will try to get back to your request within 48-72 hours. However, by-laws state the board has up to 30 days to approve. Link to ACC forms

Spring Reminders:

• Landscaping:

• Remember that early spring is a great time for fertilizing and weed control for your lawn. Proper fertilization ensures a healthy, dense lawn that maintains a dark-green color and gives weeds a run for their money. Spring is also a good time to trim limbs away from the house to prevent water damage, and intrusive pests. Here are a few tips for successful fertilizing: Always water after fertilizing. If the weather is hot, wait until it cools before fertilizing. Nitrogen is every lawn's most important nutrient, and each type of grass requires different amounts to maintain the highest quality turf.

• Homeowners are responsible for all maintenance of lawns, shrubs, trees, and/or landscaping materials. Lawns that are dying or dead, full of weeds, or neglected need attention.

• Please remove any dead or dying trees from your property. They pose a danger not just to your house but possibly to your neighbor’s house as well.

• Please also keep ivy trimmed and confined to your yard.

• Please be sure to clear all gutters and roofs of leaves and mold.

• Vehicle and RV Storage: No vehicle may be “continuously” parked on the street by homeowners. All cars must be permanently parked in driveways or garages. If cars are parked on the street, it creates a major liability as children may not be seen by oncoming cars. In addition, please store recreational/commercial vehicles, boats, or trailers outside of Hedgerow.

• Mailbox Replacement: If your mailbox is falling over, rotten, faded, or generally in bad shape, here is a great solution. Check out this company for a replacement mailbox (picture below). The Hedgerow HOA has conferred with Addresses of Distinction and encourages residents to replace a run-down mailbox with a new attractive, metal mailbox like the one below. Link to purchase ($444.73 installed)

Dues: Dues were owed on March 1, 2026, for $795. If you have not yet paid for this year, now is the time before the pools open back up in May.
