Loma Linda trustees approve homeowner-maintenance fees; chair to draft vacant-lot ordinance
Summary
The board approved charging homeowners $100 for mowing/trimming and $200 for tree trimming when owners fail to maintain culverts/ditches/easements, and directed Chair James Childers to draft an ordinance after complaints about a private lot.
Trustees voted Aug. 13 to charge homeowners $100 for mowing and trimming and $200 for tree trimming at owners’ expense if they fail to maintain culvert, ditch or easement areas identified by town staff.
Matt Barker presented maintenance areas the board discussed; the trustees agreed to send reminder letters to homeowners about their maintenance responsibilities. Aaron Hamilton made the motion to impose the fees, Tyler Ehrhart seconded and the motion was unanimously approved.
The board also recorded that Brown’s building was sold to John Havens and that the new owner is in the process of cleaning up the building; trustees said the property must meet building codes and will receive a letter to that effect.
Minutes note complaints concerning the condition of a private lot owned by Alice Mangan; a letter was sent on Aug. 7. After discussion, Chair James Childers said he will compose an ordinance to address vacant-lot use. The minutes do not include the ordinance text, enforcement specifics or any timeline for drafting or adoption.
The board approved reminder letters to Loma Linda residents and renters about unauthorized use of Eagle Creek Golf Course cart paths and course property by nonmembers. The meeting record shows these actions were discussed and directed but does not record additional enforcement steps or deadlines.
