The Glenmore Woods Homeowners Association Board has approved the treatment of approximately 36 Ash trees in the neighborhood. The board has been treating the Ash trees in 2012 and 2014 and will continue the recommended treatments in 2016. The treatments will occur after June 1st, once the contractor has been able to do an assessment of the 36 Ash trees, and determine they are all healthy enough for the treatments. It is unknown to arborists whether the Emerald Ash Borer can sustain on the smaller Ash trees, or vacate due to lack of sustenance. Glenmore Woods is continuing the fight to keep the Ash trees alive that are in our neighborhood.

Native Restoration has begun the first stage of the Buckthorn Eradication project between the two ponds (referred to as Area 2 in the aerial map from the October board meeting) and then will proceed to Area 3, the area between Ashford Drive and Windmere Court. As a reminder, these areas were chosen first due to the atheistic appeal it could bring, as well as the safety implications especially for areas 2 and 3. The safety implications are noted due to the lack of illumination at night due to the over growth of buckthorn blocking illumination from street lights and homes.

The Glenmore Woods Homeowners Association announced an assessment increase. The Glenmore Woods board has been able to achieve a reserve equal to nearly one year of operating income over the last 11 years, whereas 11 years ago we had nothing in reserves. We have taken a very conservative approach to building up reserves without any special assessments or unreasonable increases in monthly assessments. This reserve is essential to protecting the interests of our community from unforeseen events.

Glenmore Woods has traditionally covered pond maintenance for the two ponds on the property that involves treating them for algae. The ponds are treated because the algae builds up and makes for unsightly ponds if they are not treated. There has been a new maintenance item that has come up. After the winter of 2014, which was very cold, the ponds froze solid for at least a month. This depleted oxygen from the fish which cause many fish to die.

There was a class action lawsuit against DuPont for the sale of Imprelis to lawn care professionals, golf courses and self applicators. Imprelis was a herbicide (weed-killer or weed-control product) approved for use in many states across the country (except California and New York) and was used by Mariani at Glenmore Woods between August 31, 2010, and August 21, 2011. In addition to weeds, the lawsuit claims that Imprelis also kills and damages certain trees and other non-target vegetation. DuPont suspended the sale of Imprelis after receiving reports of damaged and dying trees across the U.S. Mariani applied Imprelis to the product specifications.
