COMMUNITY DEED RESTRICTIONSAND REGULATIONS<br />

THE IMPORTANCE OF POWER-WASHING AND EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE<br />

Welcome back to “Community Deed Restrictions and Regulations.” Deed restrictions<br />

are intended to maintain or increase property values and to ensure the neighborhood is<br />

maintained and remains a beautiful and harmonious place to live for all its residents. In<br />

each newsletter, we talk about community deed restriction violations, which we find are<br />

frequently reoccurring across the community and discuss them briefly. Our hope is that the<br />

monthly deed restriction article will provide residents with a better understanding of the<br />

purpose of both deed restrictions and community inspections in an HOA.<br />

This month, we will be going over general exterior maintenance guidelines that residents<br />

need to be mindful of, especially now that warmer weather is upon us. This article will<br />

cover replacing dead or damaged landscape, as well as the importance of power-washing.<br />

Section 19 of your governing documents states “All lots shall be kept at all times in sanitary,<br />

healthful and attractive condition.” This includes keeping the home and everything on the<br />

lot free of mildew and staining, keeping yards well maintained and replacing landscape<br />

as needed. For more information on your governing documents, please visit www.<br />

grahammanagementhouston.com, click on, “Communities,” and select, “<strong>Lakemont</strong>.”<br />

Power-washing can be an important part of maintaining a beautiful home<br />

and sanitary lot. Routine power-washings will not only ensure you have<br />

a mildew free and gorgeous lot, but will act as a preventative measure<br />

for future repairs and more! Here are 6 reasons why power-washing your<br />

home is so important:<br />

health conditions<br />

Insured | FREE Estimates<br />

1. Prevents Damage to Your Home - Power-washing your home,<br />

especially the siding, will help prevent damage and will help reduce how<br />

often repairs will be needed. When moisture and mildew sit on the home<br />

during Winter and then warm up during the Spring and Summer, rotting<br />

and warping can take place, especially when untreated for some time.<br />

2. Prevents Damage to Sidewalks and Driveways - Power-washing<br />

sidewalks and driveways not only aid in curb appeal but extends the life<br />

of your concrete’s coating.<br />

3. A Great Way to Prime Surfaces - If you are planning on resurfacing a<br />

driveway or repainting your home, for example, a fresh power-wash is<br />

the best way to prime that area. Not doing so can cause your new work<br />

to appear uneven, unfinished or make its life expectancy much shorter.<br />

4. Preventative Maintenance Saves Money - An occasional power-wash<br />

is much cheaper than having to re-paint your home or re-surface your<br />

concrete because of permanent damage. Preventative measures not<br />

only keep your home beautiful, but they protect your investment as a<br />

homeowner.<br />

5. Reduces Allergens and Protects Your Family’s Health - Due to seasonal<br />

allergies, Spring is the perfect time to power-wash. According to the<br />

American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI), some<br />

of the most common allergic triggers are pollen, mold spores and dust<br />

mites, all of which can be washed away by power-washing your home.<br />

6. Saves Time - Homeowners can save time by power-washing. While<br />

other methods of cleaning your homes exterior can be effective, nothing<br />

is quite as fast or as simple, as power-washing the dirt and mildew away!<br />

Another important reminder for Spring, especially after this year’s<br />

Winter storm, is landscaping replacements. Spring is the perfect time to<br />

plant flowers or replace landscape in your yard. It is the homeowner’s<br />

responsibility to perform these replacements on their lots, as needed.<br />

Any shrubs, trees or landscaping which needs to be replaced due to<br />

disease or damage should be done in a timely fashion and in accordance<br />

to your community governing documents and guidelines.<br />

If you have any further questions or concerns regarding power-washing<br />

or lot maintenance, please feel free to call the Graham Management<br />

office or email graham@grahammanagementhouston.com.<br />

<strong>Lakemont</strong> Community Association is a single-family residential home<br />

community. It is against the deed restrictions to run any business or<br />

operate a group home in <strong>Lakemont</strong> CA. If caught, you may be pursued<br />

by the association.<br />

Are your trees beginning to grow around the metal wires that were<br />

initially installed as support for the tree when it was younger? This could<br />

put your tree in danger of dying or potentially having health issues and it<br />

is recommended they be removed as soon as possible.<br />

LANDSCAPING TIDBITS<br />

Integrated Pest Management - This time of year it is quite possible<br />

to have insect problems cropping up. Some common to the area are<br />

Aphids, Scale, Spider Mites, Thrips and Whitefly just to name a few! Most<br />

of us are familiar with the available chemical control. Another option<br />

is IPM or Integrated Pest Management. This refers to biological control<br />

using “beneficial insects.” The most commonly used is the Ladybug. The<br />

Ladybugs larva will feed on the other damaging insects mentioned<br />

earlier and move on when the job is done. You can become more familiar<br />

with their process or order Ladybugs online at www.TipTopBio.com and<br />

practice an environmentally friendly method of insect control!<br />

Words of Watering - They say the earth is comprised of 70% water with<br />

only 2.5% of that being fit for human consumption. The water we use<br />

to irrigate our lawns is part of the 2.5% potable water available to us.<br />

With the heat increasing it may be a great idea to inspect your irrigation<br />

system if you have one. Keeping up with needed repairs, adjustments<br />

and scheduling is vital to water conservation!<br />

Mulch Matters - Does it really matter what type of mulch I use? You bet<br />

ya and here’s why. “Pine Bark Mulch” is a less expensive type however<br />

the drawback is that it contains turpentine that kills helpful microbe’s<br />

essential to plant health. It also “floats out of the beds,” attracts fire ants<br />

and depletes nitrogen from the soil. “Hardwood Mulch” is mostly made<br />

of tree bark from several types of hardwood trees. This contains an acid<br />

that again kills microbes. “Aged Native Hardwood Mulch” is the premium<br />

choice, the keyword being aged. This is made from ground trees and<br />

brush, not bark. The composting process kills the harmful pathogens and<br />

weed seeds, also allowing the helpful microbe’s to multiply. This is the<br />

best choice for your gardens and flower beds.<br />

Be an Artisan - With all the new growth Spring brings this is the chance<br />

to redefine shrub structure. Allow weak areas to fill in and consider how<br />

high and wide you want your plantings to be based on the location or<br />

need within your landscape. Shrubs that are in a more natural state give<br />

a softer appeal, not all hedges have to have right angles all over them!<br />

When trimming also consider a pruning style to leave the base of the<br />

plant wider than the top. This allows for more foliage to make contact<br />

with sunlight, increasing photosynthesis, resulting in more mature &<br />

healthy plants. An incorrect angle of trimming is what causes the plants<br />

to become bare on the bottoms.<br />

THE PROBLEM WITH FEEDING THE DUCKS<br />

However, <strong>Lakemont</strong> HOA is asking our residents to please refrain from<br />

feeding the ducks.<br />

While the intentions are good, artificial feeding conditions can cause<br />

more harm than good. The ducks natural feeding habits help maintain<br />

a balance between the animals and their habitat. They will eat nutritious<br />

foods such as aquatic plants, natural grains and invertebrates. Hand<br />

feeding the ducks can cause them to become dependent on humans.<br />

It may also cause a greater concentration than the confined area<br />

surrounding our community can support.<br />

Allowing the ducks to find their own wild, nutritionally balanced diet is<br />

best - for the health of the birds as well as our community.<br />

TRASH AND RECYCLING<br />

Service Days: Best Trash provides trash services on Mondays and<br />

Thursdays (Green waste is picked up every service day)<br />

Heavy Trash is picked up on Thursdays only - one item per household a week<br />

permitted. A friendly reminder that trash cans cannot be stored in view,<br />

including on the sides of the home. Please do not set your trashcans or trash<br />

at the curb until after sundown, the evening before trash pick up day.<br />

ANNUAL DUES<br />

Assessments are due on January 1 st each year. THE LATE FEE FOR<br />

ANNUAL DUES IS $50. An assessment is considered late after February<br />
