We have received 19 new families into the community this year so far. We want to invite each of you to participate on a committee and get plugged into your neighborhood. We have an active Welcome Committee, Social Committee, Landscape Committee, Safety and Architectural Control. Call me or me if you are interested, or leslie.gamel@fsresidential.com. In this newsletter you will find a list of aquatic parks in Grand Prairie where you can enjoy summer days with your family. Also enclosed is a copy of our meeting minutes from the 2013 Annual meeting. During our annual meeting we exchanged ideas about the future of Lynn Creek Hills HOA. One open suggestion is to create a PID for common area maintenance. Be sure to read the letter from your board President regarding this action. Collection of association Dues is one of the many duties of the board. Those of you who attend the meetings are familiar with the graphs and delinquency totals. The HOA has a policy for collection of dues which is outlined below: 1st Friendly notice issued after the late date on the statement. Late fees start adding to the account at 18% per year plus the cost of letter. 2nd Formal notice includes the Fair Debt Collections language and is sent certified mail. Added fees include interest and cost of mailing. Demand Letter is then sent 30 days after that if the dues are not paid. This letter is charged by the attorney and costs escalate (sky rocket!) from there. Lien is filed. If the dues remain unpaid, the attorney will file a lien against the land. If the homeowner wishes to re-finance or sell the land, the lien must be satisfied (paid) to have clear title. Foreclosure. Unfortunately this is the ultimate end to non-payment of dues. If a home is not abandoned and for whatever reason the owner chooses not to pay the dues, the HOA will foreclose on the house. The HOA then owns the house and evicts the occupants. Throughout the collection process, the HOA urges payment plans. Each owner has the opportunity to set up a payment plan. If your dues are not past due but would like to pay monthly or quarterly in advance of the January 1 date, you can do that. Contact Customer Service at Also, on-line payment, ACH auto draft and are available to you. Visit your website at Leslie Gamel, Association Manager

6 Timely Tips for July Gardeners from Calloway s and Cornelius Nursery This article is offered to the gardening public and Homeowner's Association Program members free of charge, you must include the attribution provided at the bottom of the page. Mulch Helps Plants Weather the Summer Heat! Summer is upon us and your garden may be feeling the affects of the heat. Mulch can help your garden plants weather the summer heat and still thrive. Reduce Water Use Mulch provides several healthy benefits to Texas gardens in the summertime. One of the most well-known benefits of mulch is to reduce evaporation and water use. In the heat of summer conserving water can be particularly important. Mulch reduces evaporation preserving the water in the ground where your plants can access it through their root system. Regulate Sub-Surface Temperatures Another very important benefit to mulch in the heat of summer is regulation of ground temperature. A 3 to 4 inch blanket of mulch is excellent insulation, protecting the ground from direct sun, and greatly reducing the temperature several inches below ground leve. This is where your plants' roots live, thrive and do the hard work of absorbing moisture and nutrients. They will be much healthier and more productive with the reduction in temperature that mulch provides. Types of Mulch As for types of mulch, we recommend hardwood or cedar wood for most gardens. Some gardeners prefer pine mulch, but while it is somewhat less expensive, it also breaks down more quickly and will need to be reapplied frequently. Cedar is the most expensive of the three but does help reduce garden pests in some instances, due to its natural repellant properties. To apply mulch, simply place it in the garden from the bag or with a shovel, and carefully spread it around your plants by hand or with a rake. Mulch will reduce your water use, reduce the time required to weed, as well as reduce soil loss due to wind and run-off. Plus it will help your plants to thrive through the summer heat!

Timely Tips for August Gardeners from Calloway s and Cornelius Nursery Summer Lawns; Feed, Mow, Prevent! This article is offered to the gardening public and Homeowner's Association Program members free of charge, you must include the attribution provided at the bottom of the page. The key to a great looking summer lawn is to be proactive. For a great looking summer lawn, advance planning can be your best friend. When the summer heat hits, grass grows slower, so any damage or stress will take longer to remedy and repair. Hence, your best strategy is to keep your grass healthy and green, so that it can hold its own through the summer. Water Only 1" Per Week. Our Calloway's Lawn Care specialists suggest that lawns require only 1" of water per week in the summer time. That includes rainfall. When watering, water two days per week (or one if you are subject to restrictions), preferably in early morning so that the water can seep down into the ground around the roots and build a healthy root system. Excessive watering leads to waste and disease, which can srpead very quickly in the warm summer months. When Mowing, Let Those Blades Stand Tall! When mowing in summer, most Texas varieties of grass should be left relatively long. As a matter of fact, our garden expert suggests raising your adjustable lawn-mower blade to at least 3" or the maximum height for St. Augustine; or 1" to 2" for Bermuda. Leaving the grass blades longer helps them to handle the stress of summer heat and also helps to shade the ground at the root level, keeping the roots cooler. You may need to mow more often to keep your lawn looking tidy, but longer grass means healthy grass in summer. Use a Top Quality Pre-Emergent and Fertilizer You should also fertilize your lawn around the end of August, to prepare it for the fall growth period. Apply a good pre-emergent weed killer, created specifically for the warm-season grasses that we have in Texas. Then you can apply your choice of fertilizer, either Calloway's Organic Mix, Calloway's Premium Lawn Food fertilizer, or Calloway's Phosphorous Free Lawn Food of , which helps to eliminate salt build -up in the soil and the water table. Plan ahead for a beautiful end of summer lawn, and an even more beautiful fall season.

Yard Work and Property Maintenance With summer here this is the time of year that we are all working to spruce up our property. While we are busy mowing the lawn, planting flowers, and spreading mulch, there are a few areas that are more commonly neglected. In addition to mowing, the weeds in the lawn and landscaping beds need to be removed, and the grass along the sidewalks and curbs should be trimmed. Please also make sure that your trees and shrubs do not obstruct sidewalks and alleys. A section of our property that is very easy to forget about, since it is not typically seen from the street, is the area behind the fence in the alley. Please remember that this also needs to be mown and kept neat! Another commonly overlooked item is the fence. While we see it every day, we tend to not notice that the stain is fading and a few of the pickets are popping off. Most fences need to be stained every 3-5 years. Pet Responsibilities Please be courteous of other residents and remember to clean up after your pet. Pets must be kept in a manner that does not create a noise, odor, or other disturbance or nuisance that interferes with the peaceful enjoyment of residents of other lots. No pet may be permitted to bark, howl, whine, screech, or make other loud noises for extended or repeated periods of time.
