Prevent Dumping with FREE pickups
Unnecessary bulk trash expense costs everyone money. One of our largest expenses is also the most preventable. We ask for everyone’s help with the amount of bulk trash in the common areas (a.k.a. dumping large household material such as appliances, couches, and mattresses). These costs have risen 100-fold in the last 10 years. Every time a call must be made to our special vendor to pick up the bulk trash, we must pay for that separately from our trash contract. Ultimately, the “We” is all of us in the North Village community. If you see neighbors putting out bulk trash, please ask that they call for one of their free bulk pickups from J&J Trash if they haven’t already. If you see a neighbor who is dumping, you may email our community manager so we can send letter out to them.
Are Trucks & Trailers allowed to park in NV?
After dark they are NOT!
We are seeing a lot of activity with trucks and trailers. Within our standard vehicle policy, Trucks and Trailers are prohibited specifically from parking overnight DURING THE HOURS OF 9 p.m. to
6 a.m. on community or private property. We permit such vehicles if kept or maintained totally within the garage of a private dwelling unit, and not create a nuisance to other residents due to unusual hours of activity or generation of noise. This includes Commercial vehicles (with letters, logos, or artwork) and private trucks with Class E registration. Trailers include any vehicle having wheels but dependent upon another vehicle for its motive power, and designed to be towed behind such other vehicle.
Please STOP Feeding the Rats! Pick Up Your Dog’s Poop!
Please dispose of pet waste in designated trash receptacles throughout the neighborhood using waste bags. Leaving bags or dog waste under trees or in common areas is ILLEGAL, and creates health hazards by attracting rodents and vermin. We’ve received multiple complaints about this issue. For everyone’s safety and well-being, please be considerate and maintain clean common spaces by properly disposing of your pet’s waste.
Only One Trash Pick-up Day for Labor Day Week
J&J Trash Service is our disposal company. On holiday weeks, J&J will pick up only once that week. If the holiday falls on Monday, then the pickup will be on Thursday. The holidays with an asterisk (*) indicate that the county transfer facility is closed.

Mowing Schedule & Leaf Removal Reminders
Our landscaping company, Shorb Landscaping, is scheduled to mow common areas in North Village until November. Also, note that we have two leaf removal pickups scheduled this fall. Please understand that only the week the signs are posted are you allowed to put leaves on the street. Otherwise, bag the leaves for weekly recycling or have your contractor remove the leaves entirely… but do not leave them in the street or they can cause a backup to the drainage system.
2027 Budget in Process
We are now working on the 2027 budget with the information from security, trash and the management agreement with Montgomery Village Foundation recently arriving. The CPI being used for our budget is 4.1% to cap the non-special contract expenses. We will be finalizing and approving the budget at the August meeting. Look for the budget on the website after the August board meeting.
