GRASS and WEEDS Fire season is definitely upon Arizona. For purposes of maintaining a beautiful and safe community, please comply with the HOA rule (2.30 Maintenance of Lots and Homes) requiring Members to maintain lots/yards. All lot and home owners shall maintain their lots and homes in good repair. The accumulation on any lot of trash, debris, compost piles or tree and shrub clippings shall be removed by the owner at the earliest possible time. Native grasses and tall weeds shall be mowed on a regular basis and maintained in a manner consistent with the natural environment of the surrounding forest and common area of Forest Highlands. As a reference point, grass and weeds on lots should not exceed knee height. If it is determined grass/weeds on a lot are a fire danger or unmaintained, the owner will be required to cut the vegetation, so it is safe and appears maintained.
REMOVING ALL FIRE RESTRICTIONS In cooperation with the U.S. Forest Service on the Coconino and Kaibab National Forests, at noon on Tuesday, June 28, 2022, Coconino County removed all staged fire restrictions formerly in place in unincorporated communities and recreation areas in the county. “The monsoon flow is now in place and should continue to provide moisture and elevated levels of relative humidity,” said County Emergency Manager Wes Dison. “Based on the information from our partners, current conditions warrant removal of fire restrictions. We also do not have any significant competition for fire- fighting resources around the state right now. We will continue to monitor conditions and encourage residents and visitors to remain cautious.” As areas of the forests, county, and city parks reopen for recreation, county residents and visitors are encouraged to exercise caution in their activities and when operating outdoor cooking appliances, barbecue grills, and vehicles.

FLAG ETIQUETTE When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union should be uppermost and to the flag’s own right, that is, to the observer’s left. When displayed in a window, the American flag should be displayed in the same way, with the union or blue field to the left of the observer in the street. No other flag or pennant should be placed above, or, if on the same level,
to the right of the flag of the United States of America. For more information go to https://www.usa.gov/flag
General Flag Display It is the universal custom to display the American flag only from sunrise to sunset on buildings and on stationary flagstaffs in the open. However, when a patriotic effect is desired, the flag may be displayed twenty-four hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness.
