Proposal
Proiect Location & Existing Condition fDhotos included):
Over the past several years members of the association have expressed their concerns
both in writing and at HOA meetings regarding the continued lack of maintenance in the
common area located on the right side of Nancy Circle between lots # 1 and # 201. The
existing conditions include overgrown palmetto plants, small dead trees. dead and
broken tree limbs, heavy moss blankets in trees, and significant eroding of
embankments due to heavy rains. This common area has also become an attractive
host for frequently unauthorized misuse of extended off-street vehicle parking. The
appearance of this common area greatly diminishes the desirability of our neighborhood
and is inconsistent with the overall presence of the Wicklow and Tuskawilla community.
Proiect DescrilJtion and Benefits to. the Wick/ow Community:
Enhancing the common property will improve the appearance. desirability and value of
our Wicklow neighborhood, while maintaining the overall ambience and consistency of
the Urban Beautification Program in Tuskawilla Country Club Community. Our design
reflects our desire to augment overall common area landscape amenities. as well as
ease deterioration of the embankments, promote water conservation and eliminate the
vehicle off-street parking.
Our implementation of Xeriscape™ landscaping emphasizes the need for water
conservation by promoting community awareness and commitment through volunteer
participation. Our Xeriscape™ principles will include but are not limited to:
. At least 50% of the installed plant material must be Florida #1 Grade plant
material native to Central Florida area Zone 9. and not listed on the Exotic Pest
or Invasive Plant lists.
. Save water while creating a lush colorful landscape using low water vegetative
ground cover rather than turf
. Use mulch chips to reduce evaporation
. Install properly designed irrigation systems that apply "the right amount of water
at the right time"
. Properly maintain the landscape by mowing, hand weeding. pruning with minimal
use of fertilization/pesticides
