Why has it been so difficult for the PROPERTY MANAGER to keep of ASSOCIATION CLEAN and FREE of GARBAGE?
It is a problem that has been growing for the past 10 years, the same amount of time that the current property management team has been in place. So what has
changed?
Daily clean up of the Sheffield Towne Property ( currently only once a week )
Trash receptacles thought out the common areas, especially the problem spots!
- We use to have several Garbage Receptacles in the parking lot, Basketball court, and playground. Current property management decided to remove the Garbage
Receptacles. WHY? When we had them the property was much cleaner !!!
The increase in RENTALS (over 33%) has created a MESS because the SHEFFIELD TOWNE ASSOCIATION refuses to address this problem
by EDUCATING all new tenants via an ORIENTATION program, and require all LANDLORDS to comply with and take responsibility for all NON-Compliance issues!
Articles of Incorporation - By-Laws - Declaration of Covenants, Restrictions, Easements, Charges & Liens
Village Inspection
Report, Lets get the VILLAGE more involved and IT'S TIME to Hire a REAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY!
That which we have relied on for so long is broken and is NOT getting fixed... It is only a matter of time before the next financial
crisis hits our community due to the lack of a professional property management company running thing and taking RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY.
Do you have a constant wet spot
in your yard? Is your sump pump constantly running? These are
usually issues due to improper grading or improper drain tile. Wet
spots in your yard look bad, smell bad, make grass hard to cut and
attract mosquitoes.
It doesn’t matter if you have water collecting in a certain
area of your property due to rain or your sump pump; we can design a
drain tile system that will solve the problem. Even if your property
has improper grading we can design a drainage system that will solve
the problem.
It’s no
surprise, therefore, that more and more homeowner
associations are implementing technology solutions
to help them better serve
their communities and maximize their time, money and
energy.

The
photos above were taken on the same day.
I called the office around 9:15AM and spoke
with an employee that was very rude to me over the
phone. When I asked for someone to come out and
remove the debris, and this happens every week,
I was told by our employee to go out and pick it up
myself. And I will not repeat the foul
language this Sheffield Towne employee said to me.
So, I drove over to the office a
few minutes later only to find the entire staff of
employees working on the same employees GRAY CAR
that spoke to me earlier... Then I got my camera to
document this horrific
expenditure of SHEFFIELD TOWNE'S MONEY and TIME!
I have seen this happen repeatedly over the
past nearly ten years... Why?
Why is there snow on our
sidewalks and visitor parking spaces ??? If it was
not for MELTING...

Our open forum
for questions and answers was very productive. There were so many
great questions that were asked and I have solutions for most of
them. Now I have some questions for you?
How is the current board
working out for you?
How is “our” maintenance plan
going?
Can you get an answer without
speaking to a lawyer?
Do you have issues with how
our neighborhood looks?

Spring
time is right around the corner and Allscape is currently
offering a 20%
discount if you schedule your spring cleanup during the
month of March. For even greater savings Allscape is now
offering all new customers 50% off your spring cleanup if
you sign a weekly lawn maintenance agreement for the 2011
season by April 15th.
We provide a full professional lawn cut that includes
mowing, trimming, edging and blowing. This weekly
service keeps your yard looking well groomed all summer
long. Forget spending your Saturday mornings trying to start
that old mower and then the rest of the day cutting the
lawn. You should be spending time with your family and
Allscape can make that happen. Our reliable service comes to
your house the same day each week and is normally in and out
in less than one half hour, leaving you and your family the
time to enjoy your beautiful lawn.
Our crews address all
basics of maintenance such as:
Check that the
downspouts aren't clogged. Use water to unclog
your downspouts by placing a garden hose in the opening.
But be gentle at first; downspouts aren't designed to
withstand the same pressure as a house drain. If a
plugged downspout can't be cleared with a hose, use a
small plumber's snake or an unbent clothes hanger.
Again, be gentle. Gutters are not as strong as house
pipes.
Alternatively, use a leaf blower to
clean the gutters; however, remember that you'll be high
up, often in awkward postures, and carrying a good-sized
machine that not only is awkward to use but also can
blind you with dust.
Use the hose to flush the gutters with
water after cleaning. (This is also the best
time to find out if there are any leaks in the system.)
Please Check with Your
Association Property Manager to verify proper Gutter
Cleaning procedures. Remember your property is at risk
damage if left unchecked.
Water trapped in gutters can cause major damage to your roof
and walls. Maintaining clean gutters helps keep your home in
good shape. Instructions things you'll
need:
Garden Hoses
Garden Trowels
Leaf Blowers
Large Wooden Spoons
Plastic Trash Bags
Buckets
Caulks
Extension Ladders
Gutter Scoops
Plumber's Snakes
Gain access to the roof with a ladder.
Don't lean the ladder against a
downspout or gutter, which can easily bend or break.
Remove leaves and twigs from gutters by hand or with
a large spoon, a gutter scoop or a small garden trowel.
Wet down caked-on dirt, which can be difficult to
remove without damaging the gutter itself, then remove
it with the gutter scoop or trowel.
Put debris in a bucket or plastic trash bag placed
on the roof or ladder. If you use a bag, you can just
drop it when it's full.

Wow! I recently
sold my gold to Mike at Top Tier and I would definitely sell to them
again! Mike did EXACTLY what he claimed: 75% of the fair market
value for my gold - which is at least 3 to 4 times more than any
pawn shop I went to offered me. Mike paid me cash on the spot! Don't
waste time with anyone else, you can trust Mike!
