San Elijo Hills Community Association (HOA) updates:
Disaster Preparedness Seminar
Is your family prepared for an emergency? Did the 2014 Coco’s fire surprise you? Did you know what to do? Would you like to be more prepared?
Let’s be prepared together! Please join us on Tuesday, January 12, 2016 6:00 PM at the San Elijo Hills Recreation Center. 1105 Elfin Forest Road, San Marcos, CA 92078.
The City of San Marcos Emergency Preparedness Manager, along with 2-1-1 San Diego, will present information to help our residents be better prepared for major emergencies or disasters.
The City of San Marcos Fire Department Battalion Chief and staff will also be present to discuss the hazards faced in our community and how you can be better prepared to handle these hazards.
You will be provided easy to use resources to assist in developing a family emergency plan, and opportunities for more information and training. This is a great way to get informed and get your questions answered. For more information, contact Liz McCardle at sehdirector@waltersmanagement.com or call (760) 798-9015.
Questhaven Park Turf Renovations
Turf renovations are now underway at Questhaven Park. We ask that all residents stay out of the fenced areas while the turf if being repaired.
Our parks are some of our best assets. Turf repair is a normal part of maintenance, and the rate of deterioration of the grass is accelerated when the park is used for commercial purposes or when residents heavily use the grass when it is wet.
Please limit your use of the turf areas when the grass is wet, and please report commercial use to Walters Management. If you are able to provide us with the business contact information, we will be happy to follow-up with the commercial entity in order to protect our parks while suggesting alternatives within the city for their use.
The goal is not to take away opportunities for residents to stay active within the community—we simply want to ensure our parks are readily available for use and enjoyed by our residents without excessive damage and unnecessary closures. Thank you for looking out for our parks!
The Board of Directors feels strongly that we must continue to work together to ensure that San Elijo Hills is well maintained and continues to be a premier community in North County. Thank you for your cooperation and for doing your part to help maintain our community!
