Winter

2008-12-02T13:21:00.000-08:00

As old man Winter visits Mill Creek and Cleveland, below are a some reminders to keep safe and warm.

• All owners are encouraged to have their furnace checked & cleaned each Fall. Change your filters each quarter, too.

• Check your smoke detectors & install a carbon monoxide detector.

• Turn off the water to your outside faucets (open the handle & allow remaining water to drain). Remove all outside hoses and store for the season. Even frost-free faucets can freeze with a hose attached. Faucet mittens can be purchased for home owners without outside shut-off valves.

• Clean and check fireplace chimneys each Fall, including chimney caps. Creosote can build up and cause fires.

• Pet rules apply even with the colder weather. All pets outside your home must be on a leash and picked up after.

• Don't feed the wildlife - their survival doesn't depend on handouts. Keep your garage doors closed as open doors invite both wildlife and thieves.

• Consider replacing your washing machine hoses if you don't turn off the water after each use. Hoses can rupture without warning. Check your dryer vents as lint buildup is a potential fire hazzard.

• Celebrate the holidays with candles with care... never leave a burning candle unattended.

• Holiday decorations are permitted but should be displayed the first part of December through the middle of January.

With all of the above precautions, your home will be cozy all Winter.

Curb appeal

2008-07-08T07:51:00.000-07:00

Open letter to all Mill Creek homeowners — July 1, 2008

Most of you are aware of the value of "curb appeal". Curb appeal refers to the impression that someone receives of a property as they drive through. Property values are greatly impacted by the neighborhood in general.

Each of you contributes or detracts from the value of Mill Creek. The manner in which your yard is taken care of reflects the pride of ownership the Board hopes that all of you feel.

The community of Mill Creek wants to help the curb appeal. If you need help with maintaining your yard, call the office for a recommendation. There are a couple of lawn maintenance people who live in or near Mill Creek who will take care of your yard for a reasonable fee.

Don't neglect the weed and feed. Weeds spread easily in a close community like Mill Creek. Be kind to your neighbors and take care of the weeds in your yard.

If yard work makes you feel inadequate, there are owners who would be delighted to offer suggestions to improve your curb appeal.

Call the office @ 330-467-0828 & just ask for help.
