Tennis and Pickleball Policies

Tennis and Pickleball Policies

The Amenities Committee wants to remind Members to please observe the time limit which has been posted near the gate entrance. Play is to end by 8:00 PM – no matter what. Players may certainly spend time after that hour visiting in the seating area outside of the courts if they are not doing so loudly. Remember that noise travels far. The point is that the courts are off limits beginning at 8:00 PM.

The courts and their use are under scrutiny and we hope that Members and their guests will comply with the rules.   Another rule that needs to be stressed has to do with blocking the ability of a gate to close as it is intended. This rule exists for a reason and should be observed at any time of day.

There are remedies and potential consequences for failing to abide by the rules, but we would much prefer that Members simply cooperate and comply.

Important Note From Firewise

The FireWise Program in our Paa-ko community depends on the active participation of each and every resident. My name is Tina Lambert, I am your volunteer liaison for our community. I just want to thank each and everyone who have already sent me their participation hours for this very important program. This participation is vital for us to maintain the qualifications as a FireWise community.  If you haven’t already, please take the time to let me know. so that I may properly document the hours that you have taken to remove shrubs, dead trees, mitigating underbrush, thinning out to ensure that we are all safe from forest fires. 

This is from the FireWise website—

The national Firewise USA® recognition program provides a collaborative framework to help neighbors in a geographic area get organized, find direction, and take action to increase the ignition resistance of their homes and community and to reduce wildfire risks at the local level.  Any community that meets a set of voluntary criteria on an annual basis and retains an “In Good Standing Status” may identify itself as being a Firewise® Site.  

The Firewise USA® program is administered by NFPA® and is co-sponsored by the USDA Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters.  While the NFPA® administers this program, individuals and communities participate on a voluntary basis. The NFPA® disclaims liability for any personal injury, property, or other damages of any nature whatsoever, whether special, indirect, consequential or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from participation in the Firewise USA® program. The NFPA® also makes no guaranty or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of program guidance. 

Please forward me your hours to tina@lambert-construction.com. Thank you again to all the residents who know and understand how important this program and its guidance is for our beautiful community.

Signs of Spring

Weather is getting nice - and that means that critters will be appearing around Paa-Ko.  Rattlesnakes (and all snakes), and bears.
So far, a bull snake has been spotted, and signs of a bear have been seen (tipped over garbage can in back of house).

Take care and be alert when doing work in your yard.  Snakes love to hide under bushes around rocks, and even wrap themselves around the base of outdoor planters.  

Please keep garbage cans inside until trash day.  If, for some reason, you cannot, please make sure the lids are secured to the bin so it is more difficult for a bear to open.  

Haven't heard if our resident Paa-Ko mountain lion has been spotted this year or not.......

In any case be vigilant when outdoors, especially when children and pets are running around your yard.

Please send me photos to put in newsletter if you get some great or unusual shots of wildlife.

Voluntary Lighting Standards - From the HOA Board

Per ACC guidelines: "VOLUNTARY LIGHTING STANDARDS 
Lighting standards focusing on limiting the kind and quantity of light from undesirable sources can help to preserve views. (See Outdoor Lighting Standards – Addendum #4) for some VOLUNTARY recommended lighting suggestions. Careful attention to the selection of fixtures, which are shielded or filtered to minimize ambient light, is essential to preserving night views. The A.C.C. shall have the right at any time, without notice, to impose, change or delete lighting standards. 
It should be noted, however, that installation of any lighting within Paa-Ko Communities must adhere to all Bernalillo County ordinances (including, specifically the Bernco East Mountain “Night Sky” Ordinance), in addition to receiving approval by the A.C.C. 
• No lighting will infringe on the neighboring property and/or produce excessive glare. 
• An excessive number of fixtures, or excess light levels and glare will not be allowed. 
• Lighting of plant materials shall be achieved with hidden light sources. These include surface mounted fixtures; lamp recessed in building soffits, overhangs and walls; lamps recessed in the ground; and lamps hidden by plant materials.
• Exterior fixtures shall be located and oriented to focus light inward to minimize light encroachment onto neighboring residences. 
• Building mounted lighting must be directed downward away from adjacent Lots, streets and public spaces. 
• Tennis court, and any other sport court light fixtures must comply with all other type and shielding requirements outlined in these Guidelines and must be specifically approved by the A.C.C. 
• Exterior fixtures mounted on buildings shall be no higher than the line of the first story or eave, or, where no eave exists, no higher than twelve feet (12’) above finished grade and shall be fully shielded to prevent visibility of the light source from the other Lots or Common Area.

Present this certificate to your homeowners insurance company to see if you can get a discount on your rate. Some accept them, some do not. In the past, companies such as Farmer's, have recognized this accomplishment, but every company is different.

Note from East Mountain Wildfire Preparedness Association

From EMWPA:

The National Weather Service published a weather briefing this past Thursday that all of us need to be aware of and prepared for. This next week is going to be a turbulent set of days, maybe not every day, but certainly this could be a time we all need to be aquainted with and ready for. The link to this weather briefing is here: https://emifpa.org/emifpawp/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/SWB_WindSigFireWxPattern_2026March26.pdf

We highly recommend that you take the time to read this weather briefing. As everyone is aware, we are moving into the most dangerous few months for wildfire risk for our EM region.
