Landscape Committee
The LC is committed to ensuring that our neighborhood is attractive and welcoming to all homeowners, potential buyers, and visitors. All projects are aligned with community standards, HOA By-laws and Montgomery County landscape guidelines.
Drumaldry landscaping begins with our Association’s Landscape Maintenance Services. DHA currently contracts with Scapers Landscaping Company, a locally owned and managed company. The Association maintains 5 Outlots, 7 county Traffic Circles, county property up to 30′ from the center of the street, and per written agreement, a designated piece of property along the undeveloped east side of Drumaldry Drive between Green Tree Road and private property lines, south of the brick fences, on Perthshire Court. The Association currently provides mowing, mulching, weeding, light pruning and trimming on property outside of the brick walls in order to maintain aesthetics.
The LC arranges for annual services including:
- Annual planting and maintenance of the Association’s flower beds
- Spring & storm debris cleanup
- Maintenance and fertilization of Association owned trees and shrubs
- Fall leaf removal outside the brick walls along streets and driveways
In addition to the ongoing work of landscape maintenance contractors, the Landscape Committee oversees various short and long-term projects to improve and enhance our community green spaces. Fine Earth Landscaping Company (FELCO) was hired to design a community-wide plan for Drumaldry. The overall design was approved by the board and a 3 – 5 year landscape redesign of the Association’s 5 Outlots is currently underway. The 3-5 Landscape Redesign Project will continue over the next several years as funds are available.
2024 – restoration and enhancement of lower Outlot C along Drumaldry Drive completed.
2025 – re-design and enhancement of upper Outlot C and lower Outlot F completed.
2026 – DHA will address deferred landscape work along upper Drumaldry Drive and Swords Way.
The LC welcomes input from all homeowners and encourages neighbors to get involved. Please let us know if you would like to join the committee.
