Here’s what the leak looks like, under the tree. This tree is about 35 feet tall and ended up directly over a water line. This is the result many years later. Now you know why we require everyone to get permission before they plant things in the Common Area.
Water should be back on after noon.
The water leak on East Townhouse is also effecting the 2 stories on East Creek, as well as the single stories on the North side of East Creek Drive. The guys started work early this morning and are still digging to find the broken pipe, but they are being hampered by the fact there is a huge Pine tree growing over the water lines. They are having to dig and cut away tree roots to gain access to even ascertain the problem. This could take a while judging from the size of this tree.
We hope to have this fixed today but that all depends on when we can get access to the affected water pipes. We will keep you advised.
We have a fairly bad water leak on East Townhouse Lane and will be working on it tomorrow morning.
It is a 2″ line, so we will have to shut off water to that area to make repairs.
The pool will be open over the Labor Day weekend as follows:
Homeowners who have been approved for Visitor Parking Permits need to come pick up their stickers ASAP. We still have over 10 homeowners who have not paid and gotten their stickers.
One final warning will be placed on vehicles in the visitor lots that we know belong to owners or tenants and these vehicles will be towed beginning next week.
More than ample warnings have been given since 2014, so you cannot honestly say you are unaware that you cannot park there. Signs have been up for many years stating the Visitor lots are for Visitors Only. We have already notified Excalibur Towing and will be ready to begin towing these unauthorized vehicles.
We still have Permits available for those who meet the qualifications. Come to the Office and fill out an application form.
There will be no trash pickup on Labor Day, September 7th. We will pick up trash on Tuesday, September 8th.
The Pool will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday, September 1st and 2nd. It will be open from Friday, September 4th to Monday, September 7th.
The 2015 Pool season ends on Labor day; it will remain closed from September 8th until the 2016 pool season opening day.
We have some chemical maintenance to do on the pool today, so it will remain closed. We hope to have it open again on Saturday.
We have had only 5 homeowners who were approved for Parking Permits actually come into the Office to pay for and pick up their Permit stickers. Another 12-14 were sent their Approval letter almost 2 weeks ago and have not been in to pay and pick up their stickers.
We have given ample warnings since 2014 and will do one final warning for those vehicles which continually abuse the visitor lots. Starting in September, we will tow those vehicles which do not have a visible parking permit and/or violate the parking policy for the Visitor Lots. This is what will be placed on offending vehicles:
This vehicle is parked on the Private Property of the Grand Prairie Mountain Creek HOA, Inc. (the Association) and is in a Visitor Parking Only lot. Unless you are an actual Visitor to the property, you are not authorized to park in this lot.
The Association has sent out notices since April 2014 advising all homeowners/residents that their cars will be towed if they park their vehicles in the Visitor Parking Only lots. Signs are also posted in this regard.
This will be your final warning. Continuing to park your vehicle(s) in visitor parking will result in towing at your expense.
We are changing the Pool hours for Tuesday and Wednesday to 1PM – 8PM.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday hours will remain the same.
