2014 Park Day – March 22

Please mark your calendars for our Spring Scofield Farms Park Beautification Project scheduled for Saturday, March 22nd from 9:00am to 12:00pm.  This year, with the help of volunteers like you and your family, our projects will include trash pickup, removing limbs and brush from along trails, painting the bridge, and clearing invasive plants like China Berry trees.

You can bring your own gloves and water bottle if you like.  Otherwise gloves and tools will be provided.  More information will be coming in the days leading up to this event.

This is a good time to get outdoors, get to know the park better, and meet your neighbors in the process.  Please come out, enjoy the outdoors, and help us keep our park looking great!

For more information, contact Dan Frasier.

Letter from the President Fall 2013

Attention Scofield Owners,

On behalf of myself and the Scofield ROA Board of Directors, we wish you and your families a happy and safe holiday season!

The financial situation of our community has changed and we no longer need a large cash infusion at the beginning of the year. We will no longer offer a prepayment discount for paying your entire annual assessment at the beginning of the year.

Please remember that maintaining our cedar privacy fences will help assure that Scofield Farms remains a desirable and attractive place to live.  When replacing fencing, the Architectural Control Committee asks that residents use #1 grade cedar slats that are approximately 3.5 to 4 inches wide to maintain compatibility with existing fences in the neighborhood.  Color and width of the existing fence should be matched.  Any changes in fencing from this standard will require ACC approval.  Also, remember that owners on each side of the fence share a joint duty to maintain, replace and repair the fence so that it remains in good condition.  The ROA management company will work with affected homeowners to enforce fencing standards, if necessary.

Lastly, please be sure to bring your trash and recycle bins in the same day it is picked up.

Thank you,

Paul Maine

President Scofield ROA

Fencecrete Repairs – December 2013 / January 2014

During mid-December 2013 through January 2014, Fencecrete America is scheduled to repair several sections of the concrete fence which borders the neighborhood.  Repairs will include damaged sections of the fence along Dapplegrey Lane, Withers Way, and Bosswood Drive.  Most of the repairs are fairly minor (replacement of panels, etc.).   Areas to be repaired have been marked with bright pink paint along the outward-facing side of the fence.  Fencecrete America has assured us that there will be as little disruption to homeowners as possible; however, if you have questions or issues, please contact Certified Management of Austin at (512) 339-6962.
