LANDSCAPE COMMITTEE
contact@spectrumam.com

Goals:

  • To work towards increased property values in the community by educating and encouraging owners in the community to keep their properties well maintained, through articles in newsletters and yard-of-the-month programs.

  • Be the eyes of the community for irrigation problems that require emergency attention.

Functions/Responsibilities:

  • The Landscape Chair heads up the Landscape Committee members.

  • The Landscape Chair sees that service providers of the Association are

    maintaining the landscaping of the common areas, i.e. mowing, weed and

    insect control, irrigation system, and foliage. Landscaping is the largest single

    annual expense incurred by the Association; it is also our most visible asset.

  • The Landscape Chair and its committee choose the spring and fall foliage

    by working with The HOA’s Landscaping Maintenance Company.

  • The Landscape Chair shall attend the Annual HOA meeting, which are

    usually conducted in the month of March, and give a short presentation to

    the community.

  • The Landscape Chair shall meet, when warranted, with other Committee

    Chairs to complete their assigned responsibilities. Committee Chairs usually

    meet with the Board of Directors once or twice a year to plan budgets and to

    discuss and plan community functions/improvements.

  • Landscape Chair has the authority to authorize work and repairs up to

    $1,000 for each occurrence. Repairs exceeding this amount need to be

    authorized by the Board of Directors. Receipts for work and repairs will be

    provided to the Board of Directors.

  • The Landscape Chair and its committee will be responsible for overseeing

    the placement of American Flags in the Common Areas during appropriate

    holidays.

  • The Landscape Chair and its committee shall be responsible for overseeing

    Christmas decorations and lighting. These activities will include design as

    well as oversite of the installation and removal of said items.

  • Periodically the services provided to the Association will be bid out using an

    RFP. This activity will need to be approved by the Board of Directors. Once

    approved, the Landscape Chair will work with the Board of Directors on the

    creation of the RFP, review of proposals received from service providers,

    and selection of a successful service provider.
