The time has arrived for the planting of new
trees within Silver Lakes. The HOA, together
with The Garden Group, have started
planting trees throughout the estate in a
drive to create a beautiful treescape for
years to come. Areas identified for possible
planting of the trees are being marked
by The Garden Group team. Residences
affected are receiving communications,
explaining the process to follow going
forward.

We would like to thank those residents
who have responded positively to this drive
to improve both the environment in which
they live and the greater, surrounding
environs. Let us all bear in mind the
disastrous consequences of deforestation
and make an effort to reduce its impact.

The team continuously attend to
maintenance and repairs around the
estate. We thank them for all their hard
work and attention to detail, and for
ensuring that the standard of living in our
estate remains high.
