    This week the Ruppert crew will be in Countryhouse Wednesday 7/30-Friday 8/1. We are still waiting on a schedule for the mulch application so they will be doing their regular maintenance work as well as any trimming that still needs to be done.

  • Landscaping Update: 7/23-7/25

    This week the Ruppert crew will be in Countryhouse Wednesday 7/23-Friday 7/25.

    Weather permitting, they will be spraying weeds in preparation for mulch application as well as doing their regular maintenance work. They will be placing flags at the entrance of each close as they do the spraying.

    At the same time the Ruppert manager will be going to several of the closes to spray paint areas that will be receiving either mulch or pine straw. This will serve as a guide for the crew who will be doing the application. Fingers crossed the weather cooperates!

  • Landscaping Update: 6/25-6/26

    This week Ruppert will be in Countryhouse Wednesday 6/25 and Thursday 6/26, but will be working shorter hours due to the extreme heat. They will perform their regular maintenance duties and do as much trimming as time allows. Many of you have questioned the trimming schedule, but there have been many weather setbacks this spring which have adversely affected the work timeline. Ultimately every yard will be touched-hopefully soon.

    Ruppert will be following their new schedule and plan to be here Wednesday, 5/7, through Friday, 5/9, weather permitting.

This is a necessary step to ensure the success of the mulching process. During the month of May, there will be no other spraying done, but walkway spraying will resume in June.
