Dear Fire Ridge Residents,
Please see some friendly reminders and property information included below.
Tennis Courts: Resurfacing has been completed, and nets have been reinstalled. The courts are open once again to residents.
Sprinkler Winterization: Yard Market will be out on October 7th, 2022, to begin sprinkler winterization for the community. Please mark your calendars.
Fire Ridge Clubhouse & Amenities: We kindly ask that you treat the pool, clubhouse, and all Fire Ridge property with care and respect.

Signature Properties Management - New Regional Introduction
Dear Fire Ridge Resident,
I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Caitlin Campbell and I am the new Regional Supervisor for the Omaha region with Signature Property Management!
I am an alumni of Nebraska Wesleyan University and I bring six years of property management experience with me. During my career, I excelled at project management, customer service, property audits and acquisitions, and providing leadership for multiple departments. I am confident that this will be a smooth transition.
When away from work I enjoy spending time with my husband, traveling, and antique shopping. Being animal lovers, we have a full house with our two dogs and rescue cat.
I look forward to working with all of the residents and am happy to start this exciting new chapter. Being an Omaha native I’m thrilled to be working in my hometown again!

6.22.2022: Fire Ridge: Pool Reminders (6/22)
Dear Fire Ridge Residents,
Happy Summer!! The Fire Ridge pool and clubhouse always has a lot of activity in the summer months and we want everyone to have a great summer. To ensure the amenities are maintained and an enjoyable environment is available to all residents, please review important reminders below.
1. Pool Parties: Management was informed of a few pool parties this past weekend that were not previously approved. If you are planning to host an event at the Fire Ridge pool/clubhouse, we kindly ask that you complete and submit the attached reservation form and get proper approval for your event.
2. Pool Guest: Recently, there have been some reports of pool guests that do not live in the Fire Ridge neighborhood and were not accompanied by a resident. If you plan to have guests, please be sure you are with them at all times; each resident will be held responsible for their guest(s). If management is notified that a resident(s) has given their key fobs to a non-resident, their access to the clubhouse will be revoked.
3. Maximum Pool Guests: Each resident is permitted 8 guests per family at one time. Additionally, guests must sign the registration book and agree to the waiver of liability prior to using the swimming pool. No guests are allowed in the Fitness Center.
4. Unsupervised Children: Lifeguards are not available. Per the Fire Ridge Pool and Fitness Center Agreement, “children under the age of 16 utilizing the swimming pool must be accompanied by a parent or guardian over the age of 18 at all times and that children under the age of 16 may not use the fitness center.”
5. Pool Incident: If you witness an incident at the pool, please report to management as quickly as possible. Please include the date, time, and brief description of the incident to tyler@lovespm.com. This will help when reviewing necessary camera footage.

Please see some important information and friendly reminders below.
Golf Carts & Dirt Bikes: We have received frequent complaints regarding dirt bikes and golf carts throughout the neighborhood and at the clubhouse. If the authorities are called to a neighborhood about golf carts or other recreational vehicles, the authorities will respond. If there is a violation (reckless driving, underage driving, etc.) this could result in a verbal warning or citation. Signature is working with the authorities to get more detailed information and will share with residents. In the meantime, please follow all laws to prevent a citation being issued by the police and to ensure all residents remain safe!
