If you are not home at the time USPS attempts to deliver the stickers, a notice will be left on your front door with instructions on how to claim them. There are multiple options including an option to sign the back of the notice and have them redeliver the envelope.

All red parking hangtags must display the 2019 stickers no later than February 1^st. The sticker can be placed in any of the areas shown below.

If you have not received your 2019 parking stickers by Wednesday, December 19^th please contact our Property Manager, Laura Goguet directly via email directly at propertymanager@cardinalsquare.net or via phone at 703-565-5246.

All stoops in this round have been completed. A contract was approved Dec 13th for the next round and notices will be provided once work is scheduled.

PARKING/STRIPING UPDATE: All striping has been completed throughout the neighborhood. Please note the new yellow fire lanes and curbs throughout the neighborhood. These are NO PARKING zones and your vehicle will be towed if parked in those areas.

Winter Weather FAQs:

In preparation for winter weather the Board would like to remind you of our Winter Weather FAQs document. Please reference it for questions regarding the community’s operating procedures.

SPECIAL NOTE ON NEW CONCRETE & STOOPS: Please DO NOT USE ICE MELT on the newly poured concrete. It will cause weakening of the surface coat and separate. This will cause what is caused spalling. If you want to add anything to be safe, only use sand or another traction product. Any type of ice melt or salt will severely decrease the lifespan of the new concrete. After this season, it will be safe to use ice melt again.

If you have any questions please email propertymanager@cardinalsquare.net.

Thank you everyone and stay warm!

IMPORTANT WORK UPDATES: Burlington Drainage Project – 11/30/18:

The next phase in the project is the landscaping portion which will begin in the next week or so weather permitting. According to our landscaper December is an excellent time to plant!

Residents on the odd side of Burlington are asked to leave their exterior spigot turned on for the time being and assist with watering to help keep our maintenance costs down.

~ Communication Guide ~

Hello Cardinal Square,

The Board would like to provide a new resource for residents. A guide to communication in Cardinal Square. We hope this guide will help clarify who to contact for specific requests and concerns and enhance efficiency and responsiveness for the community. Not all issues are included in the document but we have attempted to include the most common ones.

~ How You Can Help ~

Here are some ways you can help keep the community in good shape (and save money!). The more we can all help out, the less outside help we'll need. This will help keep our dues down, and having a beautiful and safe community will help keep the home values up!

Trash & Recycling

Please note that only trash is picked up on Monday mornings. Recycling pick up does not occur on Monday morning. If you are placing boxes or other items that look like recycling out on Monday, please place it in a trash bag so that it gets picked up. Trash, along with recycling, are picked up on Thursday mornings.

Trash should not be put out until after 6 p.m. the night before. As always, please be sure to secure your trash when packing it so that it does not spill out. Please follow these requirements in order to help keep our neighborhood looking beautiful and clean.

Pet Leash & Clean Up

For safety purposes, all dogs must be on leashes when walking in the community. Please note that Fairfax County has strict leash laws for dogs. Additionally, pets must be cleaned up after in the neighborhood for sanitary purposes. If you notice any violations, please notify the Board.

Community Safety

Here are some helpful safety and awareness tips:

Please be sure to keep vehicles locked and do not leave valuables inside.
Lock home doors and windows.
Don't hide keys under rugs or planters.
Contact the police if you see any suspicious behavior.
