AGHOA Meeting:Date: Thurs. April 16, 2015Time: 7:00 p.m.Place: South Metro Fire Station.
See agenda on page 7The AGHOA meets the third Thursday of the following months: June 18, October 15, and December 17.
6.9% and 49.5%These are the respective numbers when looking at what percentage of our homes are paid members of the Association and then what percentage of homes we need signed up to utilize Pro Disposal for our next price break.6.9%6.9% of 1053 homes = 73It seems that this is a reoccurring topic in the newsletter, so we may as well continue the theme. Are you a paid
member to the Homeowners Association? $25 a year is a small investment to make into your community. Your paid membership can help support community activities such as a dumpster day or neighborhood picnic. As of right now, the HOA does not have any extra funds (due to lack of membership) to offer any community services.49.5%49.5% of 1053 homes= 522We are excited to announce the new preferred trash provider for Acres Green. Pro Disposal currently services over 494 homes already in the neighborhood. Because of this high utilization, they were open to the idea of offering a tiered discount program to Acres Green neighbors based on increasing the percentage of customers. See below for the breakout of discounts provided. Your Board felt comfortable working with Pro Disposal, as we have had nothing but positive reviews from neighbors. They offer fair pricing; great service, and even bring your bins up to your garage door. They pick up on Friday with recycling pick up every other week. Pro Disposal does not offer trash or recycling bins (we just use some bought from the store and an old providers bin). They will also offer a 10% discount for Roll off containers and additional discounts for annual billing. Be sure to contact Pro Disposal directly for more details at 303-791-3827 or www.prodisposal.net.

By Jean HenkeAs you have probably noticed by now we have made some big changes in the publishing and delivery of the Greenleaf newsletter. The first thing you may have noticed is that it was in your mailbox, which we havent been able to do for many years. It is our hope that having the newsletter delivered in this manner, more of you will read it and get involved in the community.What may not be as obvious to you is that we are now using a new publishing company who is also printing the newsletter. That company is Porchlink. They publish several newsletters around us and we have had very good reports on their work. While the Greenleaf is not printed in green ink, you will notice full color on the front and back pages and may even see color on some ads inside in the future. We will still be posting the newsletter on Nextdoor and the website and sending out a pdf to those on our e-mail list. Another change will be the publishing of an August issue of the Greenleaf this year. We havent published an August issue for some time. In spite of publishing this issue, we will not be having a home owners meeting that month. Jean will still be editing the Greenleaf and submitting articles for publication, but the formatting, printing and distribution will be done by Porchlink. We hope that you enjoy the newsletter with these changes and we would love to hear from you on them.

Be careful who you deal withBy Pat PerlingerThis is a cautionary tale about a bad experience I had that might affect you.
You may have read in the papers that the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), has migrated very slowly from the east and has infested Boulder County. The EAB is very deadly to ash trees and has destroyed millions of trees in the eastern and central U.S.
Last March I was in touch with a company called FitTurf. Their representative told me that it was important that I have the ash tree in our front yard treated for the EAB. He disagreed with what I had been told by our County Agent that the EAB was limited to Boulder County and that treatment in our area would be useless.
I told the Rep. that I would get the tree treated if I could get confirmation from CSU entomologist Dr. Whitney Cranshaw that the tree should be treated. The Rep. said it was too early to treat the tree anyway and that he would wait till I contacted him. Lo and behold, only a day or two later I discovered a Danger ...Insecticide sign in my front yard, and there were injection nipples around the outside of the ash tree!
I immediately complained to FitTurf, but their Rep. insisted that we had made a deal and that I must pay for the service.
I called Dr. Cranshaw and he told me not only was it too early to treat the tree, there are no EABs in this area and the treatment was a total waste. Dr. Cranshaw also told me there would be an article in the Denver Post warning folks to be aware of unscrupulous tree care companies conning people into believing they needed costly treatment on ash trees outside the Boulder area when in fact treatment was useless. Sure enough, a little while later the article appeared in the Post.
Believe it or not, FitTurf started billing me for the treatment. Three attempts to stop the billings over the rest of the year were fruitless, and on December 31 my account was sent to a collection agency. Needless to say, I did not pay the bill, and finally after I told the collection agency the real story, FitTurf canceled the bill.
Further on-line research on the company shows they have an F rating with the Better Business Bureau, and terrible ratings at Yelp, a business rating company.
Whats the point of all of this? I believe companies like FitTurf should be exposed for what they are. Some, (certainly not all, and maybe only a few) companies twist the truth, and use intimidation and fear to relieve you of your money.
Good companies simply dont use those tactics. Learn from my mistake. Check out companies youre interested in dealing with before you work with them. The Better Business Bureau and Yelp are a good place to start.

New to the community or know of someone who is? Please contact Jim Stern at 303-662-0906, through Nextdoor or the AHGOA website.
Well get a welcome package out so you can welcome a new neighbor. We want to thank Jim for stepping up to work on this worthwhile committee!

The last Acres Green Home Owners Association meeting took place on Feb. 19th at the South Metro Fire Station on Maximus Dr.
R J Foos, the owner of Pro Disposal spoke at this meeting. He provided information on how having them as a preferred provider will benefit our residents. At the time of this meeting, Acres Green was at 47% of residents who have Pro Disposal as their trash company. Prices vary depending on the number of residents who participate. See the story in this newsletter regarding Pro Disposal.
There are several benefits for going with Pro Disposal as a preferred provider. First, those who go on the annual billing cycle pay for 11 months and get the 12th month free. Second, those who refer a neighbor, and they take the service; receive a free month of service. Third, they offer a senior discount (age 55). Fourth, they move the cans or bins back to the house. Fifth, existing customers will keep their lower rate unless it goes down. Sixth, there is a 10% discount for roll-offs to residents.
One question was raised regarding the larger bins people have purchased. The trucks do have an attachment on their trucks for containers. They offer recycling. Having a preferred provider will lower the number of trucks on the streets, which will reduce the wear and tear on our streets. Following this presentation, we agreed to promote Pro Disposal as a preferred provider for Acres Green.
There was some talk about having a roll-off day for the community in conjunction with a membership drive. That will be a future discussion.
The next order of business was a discussion of moving to a new publisher for the newsletter. Jean looked into two companies for publishing, printing and distributing the Greenleaf. Both services would mail the newsletter. Both companies provide similar services; one uses colored paper, one is able to produce full color on the front and back pages and one charged $100 just for setup. We will sign a one year contract to start and we will be adding an additional issue in August. The association will still only pay for mailing the newsletter. Advertising pays for the printing of the newsletter. Advertisers will now be working directly with the new publisher.
After much discussion we agreed to go with Porchlink Media as the new publisher of the Greenleaf after a couple of questions are answered. We are looking forward to this new direction for the newsletter.
The next order of business was a discussion on all the work on the roads and easements in the neighborhood. We received a couple of calls regarding digging in peoples yards in the easements. See Rons article in this newsletter regarding easements.
Sandy provided the treasurers report. We had $296 in deposits and charges of $46.04 since the last meeting. One CD is due to renew in April.
Membership was only up to about 67, partly due to not all the newsletters being distributed. We will be posting the names of members again in the April newsletter to spur membership.
The Annual Neighborhood Garage Sale will be on Friday and Saturday, June 5 and 6. Applications for the matching funds program for South Suburban are due in March. We are not participating this year.
For the Welcome Committee, Jim reported only 12 new home owners in the community. A couple of people wanted to get the welcome package to deliver to their new neighbors. Jim asked if anyone has thought of changing the month of the meetings to avoid Dec. One issue would be the schedule we are contracting for with the publisher.
Karen announced that Margie Griffith is the SAC Rep. at Acres Green Elementary School. They are only meeting four to six times a year. She will try to see what is going on and send it out over Nextdoor.
We were pleased to have a Boy Scout (Joe) at our meeting who was working on a communication badge. Joe was asked a couple of questions regarding what was going on in the meeting and what badge he was working on.
Matt reported that Pat has resigned from the Public Safety Advisory Committee (PSAC) and Matt has stepped up to take over that position. Matt is on the Membership Committee and Liaison on the Patrol committee. Matt will be going on a ride along.
Jean reported on who is responsible for snow removal. Basically, the property owner is responsible for removing snow on the sidewalks around their property within 24 hours of the end of snowfall. Property owners include Douglas County Schools, South Suburban Parks and Rec. and home owners in the community. There is a Douglas County Ordinance on snow removal. The county is the point of contact for issues on snow removal.
We adjourned at 8:30.

Updates from the Architectural Control
Committee
Did you know. Setbacks and Easements
Ron BrinkACC
Im sure that over the past few months there has been a lot of activity by utility companies in the neighborhood. The most recent has been electrical cabling. Ive seen the contractor cabling guys between Acres Green and Lone Tree as well as the contractors working on Acres Green Drive recently. On Nextdoor there were some complaints about activity in some backyards by contractors and the homeowner wasnt aware of who or why.
First, Acres Green is a very old neighborhood and as such the rules today versus what they were back in 1979 are totally different. Now there is an easement of 15 feet between your house and your neighbors. But in Acres Green, depending upon where you live, it is either 5 feet or 8 feet. This is called the property easement. Now in the backyard you have something different a utility easement. This is usually 10 feet. Bottom line, pull out your property document or contact the county to get your property plat. This will show what the easement is for your specific property. The other is a setback. The setback is usually 25 feet from your house to the street. Where do you measure it though? Check with Douglas County for how to do the true measurement or have your property surveyed and it will mark exact locations for you.
Why do you care? The recent activity by the contractors. The utility easement is exactly that it is where most telephone, TV cabling, electrical cabling etc. is done in a residential community. Douglas County has nothing to do with this. The downside is the utility and cabling companies have the right of way. If they do work they are supposed to contact you the homeowner. If they havent it is up to you to decide what action to take. Id first start by finding out who the contractors are working for and then contact the utility directly, i.e. Excel Energy. Keep in mind that if they have to take down a portion of a fence or dig through some nice landscaping there is no requirement, believe it or not, for them to restore it! So beware if you put in a shed and they have to move it or tear it down, you are probably out of luck getting them to fix it. With that said, I contacted Douglas County Building and Zoning and they told me they have never heard of this occurring but you could be the first one so be careful with what you put there.
Now to those side easements. There have been questions about putting a shed next to the fence. According to Douglas County, technically any structure, permanent or not, you should get a permit. Especially if you plan to put in a more permanent structure that has concrete footings and a concrete slab. Keep in mind that you would need to get a permit as well as a variance before having the work done. A variance basically says that yes this is in the easement but we are allowing you to do it.
Spring is coming and if you are planning upgrades or modifications to your home, give me a call and we can talk before you go down the wrong road.
