During this landscape maintenance cycle Sunshine Landscaping is going to be a little more aggressive with the pruning of bougainvilleas. They will not be trimmed  down to a stub, just a little more than usual. They will still be green and have some flowers but will not have a natural shape, as shown in the photo. This needs to be done before the summer because they grow so much in the warm weather they look overgrown in a very short period of time. After this pruning they will be left to grow out in their natural shapes.

The Board of Directors thanks the more than 130 owners who have responded to the survey so far but is looking forward to more input.

If you received an email invitation for the survey and haven't yet responded, please click on the link in the email you received and complete the survey. There are only two questions. 

If you did not receive the email invitation and you have checked your junk/spam folder, please email Mark Bullen to request a link to the survey.

Please note that only one vote for each property is permitted. The survey results are anonymous.

Responses are welcome until 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 14.

Note:  All of the homeowner informational materials relating to the Vision 2025 Infrastructure Plan can be found on the Silver Sands website. In addition, there will be another Q&A to follow up on questions and concerns cited in the survey comments.

Riverside County has progressed to the Orange level so we can now open the pools. We will be removing the signs and can now have more than one household in the pool area.

Please continue to observe the social distance guidelines and wear a mask if you feel more comfortable.
