Welcome
We are so glad you’ve chosen to live in Quartet. Our community is under development and each month we will send out a newsletter via email to update residents on what’s going on in the neighborhood, or remind you about rules, and share information. Please encourage neighbors to sign up for the newsletters as well, so they can stay updated. Please reach out to Kristen Lyons should you have any questions. We are looking forward to working with you all in building this beautiful community.

Daylight Savings
Fall is here, it gets dark earlier and daylight savings time begins November 2nd. Please ensure your home’s exterior lights are on from dusk till dawn. Illuminated surroundings enhance community safety and deter opportunistic crime.
Fall Lawn Care Tips
Fighting weeds is a year-round battle, so don’t forget fall weed control. It’ll give you a jump on a healthier lawn in the spring. While weeds are working hard on their top growth in the summer, in fall they’re storing energy in their root system, which means they’re more susceptible to herbicide applications.
Zap them now, and it will be harder for them to send their roots deeper into the ground. Applying weed killer in the fall will get rid of many perennial broadleaf weeds like dandelions, clover, thistle, etc.
Holiday Lighting
The holidays are around the corner. We are already seeing companies advertise their lighting services, attracting homeowners with early installation discounts and extra savings for those willing to display promotional yard signs. A reminder, both services being offered to homeowners violate the community guidelines below:
- Holiday decorations may be installed 30 days prior to the holiday and must be removed within 30 days after the holiday.
- No yard signs are permitted.
Reserving the Clubhouse
We have a beautiful clubhouse available for reservations. To make a reservation, check the calendar online, the link is provided below, then submit your request. Once submitted, you will receive confirmation of the reservation.
Parking & Garage Use
As outlined in the Community CC&Rs, your garage is for parking your automobiles. Not for storage, a home gym or other uses. When you have more cars than garage space, the extra automobiles should go in the driveway.
Vehicles such as your boats, campers, trailers, etc. should not be out for a period of more than 24 hours during loading, unloading, or maintenance. They should be promptly returned to storage within 24 hours.
Pedestrian Safety
The kids are back at school, walking to and from bus stops. Parents and caregivers, help your youngsters understand the importance of bicycle and street crossing safety. Motorists, reduce your speed while driving in the community and be vigilant of youngsters biking, walking and playing.
Pet Etiquette
When strolling with your furry companion, dogs must be leashed to prevent unwelcome interactions with others while adhering to leash laws. As responsible pet owners, it’s your responsibility to clean up after them. Nobody wants to step on an unpleasant mess in the community’s common areas.
