As this pond is owned by the HOA, all matters regarding the surrounding trees would need to be addressed directly with the HOA.

Regarding the grass cutting being conducted improperly; could you please provide additional information? What type of improper landscaping practices are occurring?

Thank you for your time and for reporting an issue via SeeClickFix.

There is no hoa here. It dissolved approx10-15 years ago.

The pond has a patch of trees both alive and dead in the bottom of the pond which traps water .this causes stagnation,rodent issues and mosquito issues. The trees ,that by code and design shouldn't be there, constantly have a layer or muck as a minimum,or approx 2" of water surrounding their base. This is directly in front of the drain pipe. Due to nobody doing the required maintance on the pond as required for absorption and drainage has caused this problem to continue.
The mowing crew doesn't get anywhere close enough to the surrounding trees or the metal barricade on cr1, causing large patches of grass around the area

Well to start ,there is no HOA here. It dissolved approximately 10-15 years ago. So nobody has done any maintance to this pond since then. The required work that would of gotten the HOA fined, tree shrub and weed removal from the bottom of the pond. There is a palm,a dead tree,an unknown tree and a patch of weeds 6-8 feet tall. It also doesn't drain in the max required 72hour period . Which caused standing water breeding grounds for rodents and mosquitos .
The mowers do not get close enough to the trees at street lever or trim around them and the curb. .nor do theatric around the guard rails along cr 1

Thanks,

If you bother to check with the county clerk. It's public record that the hoa was dissolved!!!

Yea! 25 days later the pond is finally dry. Come look at all the sediment that's all around the invasive weeds and dead trees. Or call me like you said you did

Email sent to Supervisor/Inspector on comments above. Thanks, Public Works

As you can see only a small channel was cut into the muck.leaving behind all the invasive weeds and trees.it restricts flowing water delaying absorption and causes back ups into the pipe as well as large amounts or Standing water. . The weeds should have been removed to facilitate flow.

Another shot showing the massive amount of sediment around the weeds and trees that should not be there.
