UPDATE - Hurricane Clean Up We are thankful that Juniper was able to get in and do a clean up of Neighborhood 1 as quick as they did. They have finished trimming, re-staking and pick up of the debris. It took many man-hours and truck loads to complete the task. Thank you to any homeowners who were able to trim their trees and re-stake wherever possible. If you have any questions or concerns about something that was missed and still needs work, be sure to call or email Gladys at Rizzetta Management.gsalemi@rizzetta.comor239-936-0913
