Please be aware that there are coyotes in the area. A deer carcass was found in a backyard on Bluff. The owner believes that it was the result of a coyote attack, and they have seen a coyote in their yard.

If you are aware of a problem in the community, it's imperative to call the McHenry County Sheriff to ensure they have a record of the problem. If your home is burglarized, you witness vandalism, you see people loitering down by the river, please inform the Sheriff. Maintaining a connection with the Sheriff's office helps to ensure the security of our community. The Sheriff's non-emergency number is 815-338-2144.

More Information
River Road becomes one-way when it snows
When it snows, remember that traffic on River Road becomes one-way (down hill) from Stonegate Road to Trout Valley Road (at the bridge). With River Road being so narrow and the incline so steep, going uphill puts you and those driving down River Road in danger. Once the weather improves and the roads are cleared, the restriction is lifted.

****************
Deed Restriction of the month:
It's that time of year when we start thinking about spring and summer activities. It's also time to swap out any winter toys (e.g. snowmobiles) by the end of March, for summer toys (boats). Boats should then be removed from your property by the end of October. There's nothing sadder than a snowmobile in July or a boat in January!
11b.
No recreational equipment
such as boats and boat trailers, recreational vehicles, campers, horse trailers and similar mobile recreational items may be stored, kept, placed or maintained on any lot except during the period or season of active use as defined or determined by the Trout Valley Association.
