Pet Reminders<br />

Leash and excrement removal requirements<br />

Pet owners are advised that the City of Littleton has a leash law and waste removal<br />

ordinance. In addition, the Association also has rules governing these same ordinances.<br />

Not only is dog feces unsightly and produce a foul odor, but can pose potential<br />

health problems in other dogs and people. Some of the dangers that are posed by dog<br />

feces are Parvovirus, Worms, Giardia, Campylobacter, and Leptospirosis. The EPA<br />

has warned the dangers that are posed by dog feces and advise owners to clean up<br />

after their dogs, not only for the safety of other dogs, but for the safety of themselves<br />

and other residents that share the beautiful landscaped grounds.<br />

Efforts to reduce the unsightly, smelly and unhealthy problem rests with all<br />

residents. For the most expedient action, residents are urged to contact and file a<br />

complaint with the City of Littleton Animal Control at 303-794-1551 when they<br />

observe pet owners that do not pick-up after their pet and/or allow them to run at<br />

large. Pursuant to City of Littleton Code: 6-2-3:<br />

Responsibility Of Owner: It shall be unlawful for any owner to have a dog running<br />

at large within the city. It shall not be a defense to this section that the owner<br />

did not permit the dog to be running at large.<br />

In addition, City of Littleton Code: 6-2-4 states that, “It shall be unlawful for the<br />

owner of any dog to permit such dog to be off the premises of such owner unless<br />

such dog is on a leash no longer than six feet (6’) and strong enough to control such<br />

animal and held by a person competent to restrain such animal.<br />

Violations of the City’s leash law carries with it a fine of up to $999.<br />

Another option is to file a written and signed complaint (photos are helpful too)<br />

with the Association. However, the process can take as much as 75 days before<br />

penalties can be imposed. The complainant must provide the date, time, location,<br />

description of the dog, alleged violation and address of where the dog owner resides.<br />

The Association will follow-up with the pet owner with a 1st and if necessary 2nd<br />

written warning letter. If the issue is not rectified after these letters, the pet owner<br />

may be summoned to a hearing before the Board of Directors and could be assessed<br />

a fine(s) for violation of the rules and regulations. The complainant will be required<br />

to attend said hearing to provide eye witness testimony.<br />

In an effort to minimize pet waste and help improve the cleanliness of the neighborhood,<br />

the Board of Directors has approved the installation of a pet waste station<br />

near 2871 and 2881 W. Long Dr. At this station there are hand bags for pet owners<br />

to use for picking up the waste and a trash can for disposal. The landscape company<br />

will empty the trash receptacle twice weekly.<br />

To those responsible pet owners, the Association, landscape company, your<br />

neighbors and particularly children, thank you for picking up after your pet(s).<br />

Clubhouse Rental Cleaning Charges<br />

A reminder that the following fees will be charged for cleaning the clubhouse, if<br />

necessary. To avoid incurring any fees, please ensure clubhouse is thoroughly cleaned<br />

(special emphasis on toilets and carpet). If fees are incurred, the $200 deposit check<br />

Limitations on Garage Sales<br />

A check with the Code Enforcement office at the City of<br />

Littleton revealed a surprising ordinance. According to section<br />

10-4-4(b)5 of the municipal code, garage sales are limited to no<br />

more than forty eight (48) hours and not more than one (1) per<br />

calendar year.<br />

If you feel that someone is abusing this ordinance, you can<br />

contact Rebecca Thompson at the Code Enforcement office,<br />

(303) 795-3831 and she will investigate. If you reach her voice<br />

mail, please make sure that you provide as much detail as possible,<br />

such as; address, types of items being sold, location of<br />

signs, etc. You can also leave your name and phone number for a<br />

follow-up to her investigation.<br />

Residents are reminded that in September of each year the<br />

community holds its annual garage sale. Dates and information<br />

will appear in the August newsletter.<br />

Shrub Trimming The trimming of deciduous shrubs<br />

is scheduled to begin in mid-June and is<br />

expected to take 5-7 weeks to complete.<br />

With a wet spring and early summer,<br />

the shrubbery has thrived. All deciduous<br />

shrubs will be trimmed with the exception<br />

of those that are flowering. However, if the<br />

flowering shrubs create an issue of safe passage along a sidewalk,<br />

access or egress to a townhome or pose a safety issue, they will<br />

be trimmed. Please be patient, as jumping from townhome to<br />

townhome would delay the most efficient means of completing<br />

this large project.<br />

If homeowners do not want the landscape company to trim<br />

certain shrubs around their townhome, attach a brightly colored<br />

ribbon to the shrub(s), where it can obviously be seen. However,<br />

if the marked shrubs create an issue of safe passage along a sidewalk,<br />

access or egress to a townhome or pose a safety issue, they<br />

will be trimmed.<br />

Bird Feeder Guidelines<br />

A reminder to all residents, committee approval is not<br />

required for installation of birdfeeders on the Owner’s property.<br />

However, any bird feeder attached to branches from trees planted<br />

in the common area and extending into the Owner’s property<br />

is the responsibility of the Owner. Birdfeeders, bird houses, or<br />

birdfeeder pole attachments will not be permitted in the Common<br />

Property. Though birdfeeders attract beautiful and lovely sounding<br />

birds, they also attract squirrels and other rodents that are<br />

looking for food. Please be aware that any Guano droppings or<br />

decomposed, discarded, damp, or moldy seed hulls, and seed<br />

debris around the birdfeeder, if allowed to accumulate and mound<br />

below the birdfeeder becomes a health hazard, the Owner or<br />

Resident will be notified to clean the area around the feeder, or<br />

remove the feeder.<br />

Exterior Upkeep Of Your Home<br />

Homeowners are reminded that they are responsible for maintaining<br />

the exterior of their townhome. This includes, but not limited to; wood<br />

trim, siding, roofing, gutters, windows, screens, brick, concrete patios,<br />

porches and steps, etc.<br />

This year approximately 30 of the 548 townhomes are required to<br />

paint (for a list of those buildings required to paint, check the web page<br />

at www.southpark2-<strong>hoa</strong>.<strong>org</strong>). During recent walkthroughs of the community,<br />

it was noted some of these townhomes have considerable rotten<br />

wood that will require replacement prior to painting. Other than surface<br />

preparation, replacement of rotten wood is paramount. Many times rotten<br />

wood is simply painted over and not replaced. This leads to more<br />

cost in the future and a paint job that will fail.<br />

When the annual inspection is conducted to confirm that the townhome<br />

owner required to paint has complied, owners will be advised of<br />

any rotten wood that should have been replaced. To avoid additional<br />

cost and inconvenience, make sure rotten wood is replaced when the<br />

townhome is being prepared for painting. Do a pre-walkthrough with<br />

your painting contractor to inspect for rotten wood and obtain an estimate<br />

up front.<br />

All homeowners should, at a minimum annually inspect the exterior<br />

of their townhome to see if repairs are necessary. Periodic maintenance<br />

in the long run will save you money and will keep up the appearance of<br />

your townhome.<br />

If you need a contractor, check with family and friends first. Other<br />

possible sources for referrals are the community newsletter and the<br />

radio/television consumer advocate Tom Martino’s referral list (www.<br />

Referrallist.com). A check with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and<br />

references from the contractor should also be considered.<br />

Slow Down!!!<br />

There have been several reports of speeding vehicles<br />

through the community, particularly at the large curve<br />

on the north end of Long Drive. This curve has a major<br />

blind spot and with the addition of vehicles parked<br />

along the street it makes it even more dangerous. With<br />

nice summer days there are many walkers and children<br />

playing outside. Please be careful, obey the speed limit<br />

and use common sense when driving through our heavily<br />

populated residential community.<br />

Clean Up Your Air With These Houseplants<br />

Clean air is essential to good health at home and in the workplace.<br />

One simple way to keep the air you breathe fresh and free<br />

of odors and chemicals is to keep a few houseplants around.<br />

They’ll clean the atmosphere and make your surroundings more<br />

pleasant and relaxing. Pick up some of these:<br />

• English ivy. This climbing vine grows in hanging baskets<br />

and low planters, and it helps clear away formaldehyde.<br />

(Be aware that it requires regular misting, especially during<br />

the winter months.)<br />

• Peace lily. A flowering plant, the peace lily will eradicate<br />

toxins like acetone, benzene, and ammonia from the air.<br />

Remember to wash the leaves every once in a while.<br />

• Rubber plant. This plant is hardy enough to survive cool<br />

temperatures and low light, making it ideal even if you’re<br />

not particularly good with plants. Like the English ivy, it<br />

acts to reduce formaldehyde in the air as long as it gets<br />

plenty of water.<br />

National Nursing Assistants Week, June 14-21<br />

Nursing assistants are important to the people in their care,<br />

and each nursing assistant is called to create an environment of<br />

caring. The nationwide observance of Nursing Assistants Week<br />

provides many opportunities to recognize and validate the role of<br />

the nursing assistant in the health care system.<br />

tips to know before taking your newly adopted kitty home<br />

from a local shelter. Hint: The average cat has a vocabulary<br />

National Dairy Month<br />

Got milk? The National Institutes of Health advises<br />

everyone that calcium is required for vascular contraction<br />

and vasodilation, muscle function, nerve transmission,<br />

intracellular signaling, and hormonal secretion... 99 percent<br />

of the body’s calcium supply is stored in the bones<br />

and teeth, where it supports their structure and function.<br />

Bone itself undergoes continuous remodeling, with constant<br />

reabsorption and deposition of calcium into new<br />

bone.<br />
