Recently we have had multiple requests to hold the monthly HOA meeting either at the park or another ‘neutral’ location.
We would like to let everyone know that the August Board Meeting will be held at the following:
Thursday, August 12, 2010
7:00 PM
Cedar Hills Public Works Building
10246 N Canyon Road
Cedar Hills, Utah
Thank you,
The Cedars HOA Board
I had a chance to transport a state department currier to Europe today and I got some good information that I thought the neighborhood should know. This is the need for American families to have an emergency terrorist plan for future terrorist activity in America. The plan should include:
A place to meet as a family that is safe and secure.
This could be as simple as at home. Most of the day the family is dispersed around town and there needs to be a comprehensive plan to get home and together as a family
A plan to get the children from school to home without communication
Have a place to meet your children to get them home from school.The Mumbai attack has brought about an in-depth knowledge of how the terrorist use cell phones to coordinate their attacks. Therefore, cell phones and texting devices will be disabled throughout the country during the next terrorist attack. You will not be able to get hold of anyone by that means. Also encourage your local schools to have a terrorist emergency plan in place.
There are a few things that you should keep your eyes out for, especially while traveling.
<-If you see a suspicious unattended bag announce to everyone there is an unattended bag, clear away and contact the local authorities. Transportation security in the U.S. is very poor at best, so an alert public is the best line of defense.
Suspicious behavior should be avoided and reported
In public places, like malls and sport events, be aware of your surroundings and avoid and report suspicious or erratic behavior.
The hope is an emergency terrorist plan will never be needed and this information will never be used. The odds are we will need to use this information though. Be prepared and ready just in case.
We want to wish everyone a very marry Christmas and happy New Year. Be safe in your travels and enjoy family and friends.
We want your input!
We have set up an email address for you to use to provide feedback and report problems/concerns regarding the landscaping and snow removal.

Share your thoughts about the general maintenance, park, snow removal, wildflowers, report sprinkler and line breaks, etc. Thanks!

Installation of the trees along Briggs & Nielsen Blvds. will begin tomorrow and is scheduled to last a week. During this time there may be small traffic and noise inconveniences. Originally the HOA Board planned to install 2†to 2.5″ caliber trees. However, the nursery had insufficient numbers of this size for our project, so they upgraded us, at no additional cost, to larger 3†to 3.5″ caliber trees. This larger size may take a year or so longer to establish, but will provide the community with greater immediate benefits.
On Monday October 5th the trees will be installed on Briggs Blvd. and Nielsen Blvd. There will be men and equipment in these areas for the the entire day and maybe into the next.  Please take caution as you enter and exit the neighborhood during this time.
The HOA ordered a few extra trees for the possibility of transportation damage. This means there could be some extra trees for purchase, at cost, after October 6th. These trees are the London Planetree, Bloodgood variety, 3 inch caliper and will be out of the ground barely a week. The HOA cost is $86.40; at the local nursery for this tree it would cost about $250-$300, if you negotiated a good deal.
If there are trees left over and you would like one of the extra trees email Michael Anderson at mlander[at]digis[dot]net. It will be a first come first serve basis.
Please join us for what we hope to be our first of many HOA sponsored events as a community. Enjoy fun, treats, and the company of your neighbors!
Bounce House, Giant Slide, Popcorn, Coton Candy, Snow Cones
Volunteers are needed to make this event a success. If you can volunteer at least one hour of your time, it would be appreciated. If you are able to help and/or have any questions, please contact Tonya Edvalson at 801-756-7282 or tonya.edvalson@gmail.com. Â
IMPORTANT: for the safety of our community, an adult must accompany all children. Please do not send your children alone only to be disappointed and turned away. This event is open to members of our community (immediate family members only). Â
The HOA is happy to announce that our community will finally be completing the neighborhood Master Landscape Plan by installing trees along Briggs & Nielsen Blvds. We are excited by all the benefits this enhancement will lend our community—by greatly increasing the beauty, enjoyment and appeal of our area. It’s going to be absolutely gorgeous and we are confident that the neighborhood is going to love it.
Please support the community in this important endeavor by attending this exciting meeting! There will be an open forum for comments, questions and concerns. We hope to see you there!
Date: September 8th
Time: 6:00pm
 Location: The Cedars HOA Park south pavilion
Comcast is placing their cable in the neighborhood. They are required to leave the area as they found it upon completion. If for some reason that this is not the case call Comcast and they should rectify the problem in a short time. If this fails let Brett or Celeste, with Elite Community Management, know and they can go to bat for you.
All in all this should make a lot of people happy and be good for our neighborhood
On Tuesday, August 18th, the city unanimously voted to place a turn out on Nielsen Boulevard at Segalla. We can thank the city council for working with the HOA to make this happen. Our exchanges with the city were very productive and civil. When we know when this will take place we will let you all know.
