CENTRAL PARK III SURVEY

 

CENTRAL PARK LIFESTYLE III HOA - 2025 HOMEOWNER SURVEY

Dear Homeowners,

The Board is working to improve the landscaping in the tree lawns throughout the community. As noted in our last update, we’re addressing adverse conditions as needed, but due to extensive damage in certain areas, several blocks will likely require sod replacement.

With this in mind, the Central Park 3 Board would like your feedback on landscape options moving forward—including the possibility of introducing xeriscaping as an alternative to traditional sod in some areas.

This is not an all-or-nothing decision. The Board is considering a pilot program and may start with a few willing homeowners—such as end unit volunteers—to test xeriscaping before deciding on broader implementation.

To help guide your decision, here are a few pros and cons of each option:

Sod:

  • Pros:

    • Offers immediate green curb appeal

    • Maintains a consistent, traditional look across the community

  • Cons:

    • Higher water use and monthly utility costs

    • Ongoing maintenance: mowing, fertilizing, and irrigation

Xeriscape:

  • Pros:

    • Reduces water usage and long-term maintenance costs

    • More sustainable and environmentally friendly

  • Cons:

    • Higher upfront installation costs

    • May not appeal to everyone’s aesthetic preference

We’d love to hear your thoughts through the below informal survey. Your input will help guide the Board’s decisions but is not binding. Please submit one response per household.

Thank you for your time and input—and for helping shape the future of our community!

*** Please submit the survey by August 1st, 2025 ***
