Assessing Home Hazards on your Property

FROM EAST MOUNTAIN WILDFIRE PREPAREDNESS ASSOCIATION:

Need help assessing and addressing home hazards on your property?  If so, help us help you.
 
1) Review the Home Hazard Assessment Guide and Worksheet from the Forest Stewards Guild to learn how to recognize and assess potential hazards that may exist around your home.
 
2) Then take a short survey using this link:  https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/7662407/EMWPA-Survey-2024
 
Your responses will help EMWPA gain a more accurate picture of hazardous fuels conditions around homes in the East Mountains so that we can work with Team Rubicon volunteers to provide the assistance you need. 
 
We also have a few programs coming up over the next several weeks during which we'll discuss Firewise communities, defensible space, and strategies for homeowners to be pro-active in getting work done.

Poop Etiquette

Several complaints have come in about POOP.  It appears some dog walkers will bag their poop (which is good), but then leave it on someone's property (not good). 

Please remember to be considerate and bring your filled poop bags home with you.

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.
