8-9-10 - Bear in Starwood
A bear has been seen getting into trash cans in the neighborhood.  In talking with the Forest Service, the description indicates it is a male bear.  If the Service has to trap him he will not be relocated; he will be put down.  To help prevent this, and eliminate him wanting to come into the neighborhood - Please put your garbage can out the morning of pick up. Keep the can in your garage and do not leave any food or tasty bear items outside if at all possible.  Contact Herb J for additional information.

7-26-10 - Board notice -Visitors/renters
A recent unpleasant situation was brought to the Board's attention that I would like to share.  Renters/friends of a resident were loudly partying until all hours, using offensive language, children running around and yelling on neighbors property at 5 a.m., trash left outside attracting animals, laundry including personal items drying on porch rails, creating an overall unpleasant experience for the surrounding neighbors.  This is a friendly reminder to ensure visitors understand our neighborhood norms and are quiet after 10:00 p.m. until 6:00 a.m.

7-26-10 - Board notice - Dog lovers
I am sharing this as a fellow 2 dog owner, and very likely one of the culprits.  There have been a number of complaints about barking dogs left outside while the parent(s) are gone.   Please be considerate of your neighbors and if your dog continuously barks, please keep him/her in the house while you are gone.  They miss you and want to share that by barking at walkers, squirrels, birds, the wind and therefore interrupt the peaceful experience of the mountain for all within barking distance.
