Default folks please remember

To all newbies please remember.. All Major landscaping requires an Arc from the villages community standards dept.. If the Landscapers don't offer it to you and you don't sign the form you are in violation and are subject to remove anything that you put in if it does not comply. Run away from them if they don't offer it, and if they say I know what to do .. remember if you sell your home and the buyer asks for all upgrade permits you have to have the ARC!!! Please do not give anyone any money up front! and only pay when you accept the job at the end. Before you sign a contract call seniors against crime.. They work hard to get your money back but most of these scammers change their business name when they make a big score! They can tell you however if they are scammers. End of the line.. Be more diligent here than you were at home with any contractor. At home we knew who to ask or knew who to hire. Here it's new.. Just be Careful all
