The grounds crews are in the FGH area almost every day mowing the grass or plowing the snow. The grounds crew also cares for all the trees and bushes in the area and will prune or trim them if needed. If you plant flowers around your dwelling, please stake off the plants so they are not mowed in their formative stages. The grounds crew will mow the large area behind the units.
Tenants assigned to houses are responsible for lawn maintenance.
If the lawn is not kept clean and mowed, FGH will clean and mow the yard and the tenant will be billed at an hourly rate. Fences may be installed around the single dwelling units, however approval must be received from the Director of FGH before installation. Tenants are required to remove all fencing upon termination of their lease. The FGHO has a limited supply of equipment for residents to use in the upkeep of their lawns. Please do not let children play with valves on buildings or underground sprinkler systems.
