Everton Bridge New Landscaping Project Completed:
The Everton Avenue Bridge, which connects parts of VG's Single Family Village and VG's Creek Side Villas, has newly completed landscaping on all four corners. Turf grass has also been extended and irrigation lines run to all areas.
Neighborhood Structures Repainted
Most of Victor Gardens gazebos, arbors, structures and postal stations were repainted over the last few weeks.
Beaver Damage Update
Jennifer Campbell reports that the only recent activity found so far this season is otters. VG's hired trapper is concerned he might catch an otter in the beaver trap so he is going to hold off on any trapping until the season starts in mid-late September since there has been no new beaver activity found.
To report any new beaver damage please contact Jennifer Campbell.

Security Reminder
A resident asked that this message be sent along to their neighbors... It's a good reminder.
In the summer months I know many of us leave our homes, cars and/or garage doors open, sometimes while we are away quickly. Please make sure that you are putting your property in your garages and shutting them as well as locking your home’s doors and windows that are easily accessible. There was a moped theft from a driveway in the Victor Gardens Neighborhood Monday July 22nd
