The community concern form: When and why you need it
Let’s say you see a sprinkler gone awry in the community landscape. Or something amiss at Uplands. What do you do? Who do you tell?
There’s a quick, easy, and fully online community concern form that’s your best bet. You’ll need to include your contact info, address, and details about your concern (photos, too, if you can).
Once you submit, a trackable ticket is created and assigned to the Uplands Community Life team. You’ll receive an email confirmation right away, and the team will follow up within two business days — often sooner — with details on next steps.
Why should I submit the form?
Uplands is a vibrant, growing community so we need everyone’s help when it comes to maintaining your neighborhood’s unique character and high-quality standards.
As a resident, you’re out in the community. You’re our eyes and ears. And you can help report community concerns that require the attention of the Uplands Community Life team. Plus, upholding Uplands’s undeniable curb appeal is what will keep your home value high.
When should I submit it?
Here are a few common scenarios when it’s best to submit one.
Community landscape and amenities
If you see something amiss out in the community, whether it’s at a park, in a community-maintained landscape area, or in The Club, use the community concern form to let us know.
Compliance
While it’s best practice to chat with your neighbor first, if you need help with a compliance violation (let’s say your neighbor has now stationed their 40-foot RV right in front of your house), let us know via a community concern.
When is the form not appropriate?
This is a biggie, because not every issue is right for a community concern.
