Please do not park cars on the street while the plows are trying to clear the streets. It makes it dangerous for them and you! Please remember to go at a safe speed while in the subdivision, there is ice under the snow and the neighborhood streets are not salted.
The Buckingham Village 1 & 2 annual HOA meeting is on January 9, 2023 at 7PM -830PM. It will take place at the North Branch of CMPL, in the meeting room. 54100 Broughton Rd, Macomb Twp, MI 48042
Due to yet another unprecedented year of trying to find companies to complete work needed on our landscaping, we are asking for some weeding help from our neighbors! A few members of the board will be out this Saturday (July 23rd) from 9am to 11am pulling weeds in our new landscaping areas. We would love it if some of you could join us as many hands make light work! We will be starting at the island on Bredenbury at 9am and then moving to the other areas along Heydenreich. We hope you’re able to join us and help make our new landscaping shine!
We are aware that some of the new plants are dying due to lack of water. We have now addressed most of our sprinkler issues so the plants should be getting water every other day with the exception of areas along Bredenbury. It was discovered that the city cut through our main pipeline there while completing sewer work. Unfortunately it’s going to be quite a hefty repair, so we are working on a watering solution in the meantime. If we are unable to revive the plants, we will be contacting Weigand’s for a replacement through the warranty we received when the plants were purchased.
See you on Saturday and bring your garden gloves!! Thank you in advance!!
Over the past few weeks there have been some exciting and much needed landscaping updates. Areas along Heydenreich and Bredenbury at 23 mile were cleared out, cleaned up, and new plants were put in. The trees along Heydenreich were all trimmed, cleaned up, and mulched. On tap for Spring 2023 is the berm area at Vesper/Heydenreich, some additional plants on the berms at Kinlet/Heydenreich and Vesper/Heydenreich, and around the new signs on 23 mile road – which will be landscaped to match the other signs following the completion of the road expansion. There are also a few dead trees on the west side of Heydenreich that will be replaced either Fall 2022 or Spring 2023. Below you will find some before and after pictures as well as an after picture of the area on Bredenbury. We hope these updates have helped to brighten up our neighborhood!
Woo-hoo!! The sub-sale is back! This event is scheduled for the days of June 23 – June 25 (Thursday – Saturday). So get your items ready for the garage sale!!
ATTENTION!! Please add the annual BV I & II HOA meeting to your calendars!! This meeting will take place on Monday January 10, 2022 at 7pm at the new CMPL North Branch 54100 Broughton Road Macomb, MI 48042. The new North Branch is located by the Macomb Township offices and Recreation Center off of 25 Mile Road.
As many of you have probably noticed by now, we are missing some trees! There were 12 plum trees along the east side of Heydenreich that were infected with black knot fungus that needed to come down. Unfortunately, the landscaping company we hired at the beginning of the year had issues hiring workers and was unable to complete any of the projects we had discussed. One of our very own Buckingham Village neighbors, William, owns a tree removal business and gave us a very fair price and did an excellent job getting rid of the trees and grinding down the stumps for us. Thank you, William! These trees will be replaced on 10/22/21 with a mixture of Red Maple and Red Crab Apple trees similar to what you see along the west side of Heydenreich. In addition, William also removed the middle pear tree on the island on Bredenbury and trimmed up the other two pear trees as the three trees had grown together and were much too large for the island.
In other exciting news, with the addition of electrical at all four of our BV signs, we have a company lined up to install holiday lights for us this year! Lights and garland will be installed on all four signs with lights also on the trees and shrubs behind the two signs on Heydenreich and lights on the trees and shrubs in the middle of Bredenbury. We hope this will bring some fun holiday cheer this year!
We appreciate everyone’s patience with us this year as we start making the much overdue updates to our neighborhood. We’ve accomplished so much this year and have many more plans in the works. Keep a look out for more exciting landscaping updates to the signs and common areas in the spring!
