block of NW 72 nd Circle in the Northwood Estates

gaining access into the residence but the victim?s side garage door did
suffer notable damage as a result of the force that the suspect used in an
attempt to try and gain entry. The suspect fled the scene prior to the
police department?s arrival but the victim was able to provide a good

NW 100TH STREET COMMON AREA
Three of the associations White Pine's along the 100th Street common area, including the one that was in the monument bed, did not survive the winter and were removed. The tree in the monument bed was replaced with a hardy lilac variety that will provide some additional color every spring.
The health of
several of the other pines along in the common area is also in question
and the board is working to try and determine what is causing this. The preliminary speculation is
that it is their exposure to the NW wind and the salt spray from the
street in the winter. We are
consulting with certified arborists to confirm that and recommend a
replacement plan.
In addition to the
pines, the board is closely monitoring the Ash Borer situation in the
state and receiving updates on a regular basis. We are also consulting regularly
with local arborists, landscaping professionals and the state entomologist
as to how to best address this potential
threat.
In the next week or
two the trimming of the low hanging branches on the ash and crab apples
will be complete, and you will see the sucker growth on the crab apples
being maintained all season.
We will continue to
keep our members apprised of what is happening with this and encourage you
to check the association's website for updates. As always, please
contact Cyndy if you have questions or concerns about anything that
affects the association.
