Dear McCormick Ranch Resident(s),
After 49 years, McCormick Ranch has established itself as one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the Valley thanks to our Midwestern-like greenbelts, parks, and medians. McCormick Ranch residents take pride in the acres of green bike paths, green lake perimeters and green parkways that come with being a McCormick Ranch resident.
As part of the Landscape Master Plan for McCormick Ranch, the Board of Directors has directed that the Association forego over seeding every five years to allow for trenching, valve replacement, new valve placement, drainage work, grading work, installation of new concrete pads for upgraded common area benches and installation of upgraded trash receptacles.
Another important benefit of not over seeding, is the Bermuda grass will be rejuvenated through dethatching and addressing the mulch build-up in the sod, both of which cannot be done if winter grass is planted. The result of this work will support acres of green grass now and in the future.
The areas south of Via de Ventura will be over seeded as usual.
What to expect?
This fall the Association Landscape Department will focus on repairing and upgrading irrigation systems north of Via de Ventura to support on-going water conservation efforts around McCormick Ranch. The Facilities Department will install upgraded benches and trash cans north of Via de Ventura. No over-seeding will occur north of Via de Ventura. As soon as the temperatures are consistently below 65 degrees at night, expect the Bermuda grass to change color. This will not happen in areas south of Via de Ventura.
