The European chafer beetle issue is still affecting lawns in The Ridge, and we are continuing to see signs of active grub damage this spring. Brown patches, slow green-up, and turf disturbed by raccoons and crows indicate that grubs are feeding near the surface again. If your lawn has been impacted, now is the time to assess the damage and begin recovery and treatment steps before the season progresses further.
For detailed guidance on repair, treatment timing, and prevention, please check out our previous post on how to prevent this from happening again in the future:
Whether you’ve called the Ridge home for many years or are new to the neighborhood, this is a great time to review, or reacquaint yourself with our HOA Community Rules and Guidelines.
One of the most common requests we receive involves architectural applications. To help streamline the approval process, we’ve included links below to the community rules as well as the applications required for HOA review and approval. Taking a moment to review these materials before starting a project can help avoid delays and ensure everything goes smoothly.
As always, if you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out to Vicki at Zaran Sayre via our Contact Us form: https://theridge-hoa.com/contact-us/ We’re happy to help!
Thank you for your cooperation and for helping keep the Ridge a well maintained and welcoming community.
