REDLAND BOULEVARD DEMONSTRATION PROJECT VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETING
The Department of Public Works will be hosting a virtual public meeting on June 10, 2025, a 6:30 PM to discuss the Redland Boulevard Demonstration Project. The meeting link is available on the city’s Online Calendar (https://www.rockvillemd.gov/calendar.aspx).
The Redland Boulevard Demonstration project is a plan to temporarily repurpose the outside travel lanes in both directions of Redland Boulevard to 24-hour on-street parking and curb extensions. The project extent is from Gaither Road to MD 355. The roadway realignment will be in place for 6 weeks and it will give staff an opportunity to evaluate changes in traffic patterns, volumes, and speeds. It is also an opportunity to track whether it is easier and more comfortable for pedestrians to cross Redland Boulevard
STAY CONNECTED WHILE AWAY
We want to ensure you’re always in the loop, even if you’re out of town for an extended period or live off-site. To keep up with important notices from management, please take a moment to update your mail delivery through USPS Informed Delivery. This free service provides digital previews of your mail, so you’ll never miss a critical update.
With annual property lot inspections currently underway, we also recommend designating a trusted friend, family member, or property manager to handle maintenance needs and communication that may arise from these inspections.
Lastly, please update the KFCA management office with your current email address and mailing address. This will help ensure all notices and communications reach you promptly. You can send your updated contact information to management@kingfarm.org.
ANNUAL PROPERTY LOT INSPECTIONS
Periodic exterior inspections of the homes/lots in King Farm are important for ensuring all property owners are adhering to the maintenance standards listed in the governing documents. These standards contribute to enhancing curb appeal and property values.
HOA Inspections USA, an independent inspection company, will take photos of homes as part of the inspection process. The photographer will be identifiable by their colored safety vest. The photographer will be using cameras to take photos of homes from common/public areas.
The photographer will NOT discuss what issues may be cited for yours or anyone else’s property.
If maintenance items are identified, a notice from HOA Inspections USA will be sent via USPS mail and by email, if on file with the management office. Email notifications will only be sent for the initial notice if there is a primary email address on file and if there are violation items cited for the property.
PLEASE MARK THE FOLLOWING EMAIL ADDRESSES
AS SAFE SENDERS:
management@kingfarm.org via senearthcomail.comsource.com
management-kingfarm.org@shared1.ccsend.com
IF YOUR PROPERTY IS CITED,
the notice below will be mailed to your address on record with the management office.
You will need to CHECK YOUR MAIL.
The initial notice will provide a compliance date to bring the noted items into compliance. If the items are not brought into compliance, then a Final Notice/ Intent to Hold Hearing will be sent via USPS mail, email and posted to the property address door.
