WEB PAGE ADDRESS The web page address is www.sabrespringshoa.org QUESTIONNAIRES RETURNED     It seems that your neighbors are concerned about the same things that you are concerned about.  Although the tabulation of the questionnaires has not been completed, the hand written notes have been reviewed.  It appears that the overwhelming concerns of the membership are the appearance of the property, both individual and common area, dogs being allowed to roam without a responsible adult and the number of cars, boats, trailers, R.V.s and trucks being parked  for extended periods of time on driveways and streets. PLEASE REVIEW CONDITION OF YOUR LAWN & TREES  Recent inspections of the community has revealed a number of trees with limbs which are overhanging sidewalks.  Please inspect your property to insure that trees belonging to you are not causing a hazardous condition. CHICARITA CREEK WALKING TRAIL Mike Farrior of Pacific Properties alerted us to a  Poison oak (r. diversiloba) infestation identified along the Chicarita Creek Walking Trail.  In California the plant grows as a dense leafy shrub and may be identified by its leaves which are divided into three leaflets, edges of which are scalloped, toothed or lobed.  The foliage turns bright orange or scarlet in the fall - beautiful but to be avoided.  It's hardest to identify bare branches in winter and early spring; even brushing against these can cause a rash.
