Thank you Arlene Haraburda for updating this list for our community to use as a referral tool. The list is compiled from input from our VM6 neighbors who have endorsed their favorite vendors. These are vendors that our neighbors have worked with in the past and have had a positive experience with them. Any questions please ask Arlene.

One of the things that make our community unique is our lamp posts. Did you know that at one time our lamp posts were gas lit before they were converted to electric? Our lamp posts are a signature piece of our neighborhood. Our lamp posts are also aging and occasionally need some TLC and upkeep. Often times a light bulb needs changing, a sensor replaced, a cracked globe replaced or the entire lamppost replaced. The HOA will provide a replacement light bulb and / or sensor as needed. 

VM6  Lamp post policy requires homeowners to be responsible for the repairs, maintenance, electrical, painting and replacement of their lamp posts. All of our lamp posts need to be in good operating condition. 

If you have a question or concern about your lamppost(s) please contact a member of the HOA board for assistance.

American Gas Lamp Works is the company which offers replacement parts for your lamp post www.americangaslamp.com

please click on the "homeowners" or "architectural"tab above and look for the document "lamp posts" for more details

Some of our neighborhood plants did not survive the intense Arizona heat. If you need to remove or replace plants in yard facing the street, please fill out the Change Request Form found on our website. Lawns, shrubs, and trees are to be kept trimmed, weed-free, and well groomed. Please do your part to keep our neighborhood beautiful!

If you need any help with landscaping and don't know who to call, please refer to the Resident Endorsed Contractor List included in your directory or you can find it here on our website.

Reminder : Clearing weeds and wildflowers -Front yard plantings must be trimmed and weed-free. If you leave for long periods of time your yard still needs to be maintained.
