We seem to be having a problem with the Office phone line and are working with AT&T to get the problem corrected.
UPDATE: The problem was fixed in about an hour……
There has been a pole leaning near the creek for quite some time. We reported it to Oncor and they were coming out to fix or replace it. They did not get here soon enough, it seems. There was a tree service that has been out and cleared trees away from the area, however, the pole is still about to fall over, and may have snapped one of the electric cables running on top of the pole. This line which follows the creek goes to the woods and branches out to power most, if not all, of the West side. The last estimated time we heard for restoration of power is midnight.
There are contractors putting in new poles now.
At last night’s Board meeting, we appointed 2 homeowners to fill the recent 2 Board vacancies left by the sale of properties. These appointments are for the remainder of the terms the previous Board members were elected to, one ending next year and the other in 2020.
Let’s all welcome Sherri Geurts and David Barksdale to the Board of Directors!
Joe Pool Lake Master Plan Public Meeting July 31

J&S Underground Networks are starting work today to install conduits for new underground power cables.
This work will be from West Creek Lane to West Mountain Lane between the transformers. If they are doing it like they did on the East side, they will get the new conduits and cables in place at the transformers to minimize the downtime without power while they swap cables.
J&S Underground Networks, Inc. and Pike Electric will be on property next week doing some extensive work on the underground electrical cables running across the entire West side of the property, from West Creek Lane to West Mountain Lane.
They are replacing the feeder cables between transformers, and in some cases, the transformer itself. Most of these cables and some equipment are the original installed in the early 1970’s. Conduits will be installed with a hydraulic boring machine so they can more easily replace cables in future.
They estimate they will be working for a little over a week.
We have posted this before but we still have people flushing these wipes (and other stuff that has no business being flushed) which results in the sewer line being blocked. We come out to unblock the line and pull up all kinds of products. Below is a post from the City of GP’s website. These wipes also cause a lot of problems at the waste treatment plant.
Keep Wipes Out of City Wastewater System
Do you use wet wipes that claim they are flushable? These wipes are actually not flushable and can cause harm to plumbing and wastewater systems because they do not disintegrate after flushing. Instead, they wrap around other flushed wipes and debris, damage pumps at the wastewater plant, and have to be removed from wastewater screens and lift stations.
Wipes also create clogs in main wastewater lines and customer lines that have to be manually removed because fats, oil and grease deposit on them.
Toilet paper disintegrates almost immediately, but the strong-fiber wipes cause havoc in city wastewater lines and at wastewater plants.
When using flushable wipes, please throw them into the trash, and do not flush them down the toilet. This keeps the wastewater lines clear and helps avoid costly clog removal at your home and the wastewater plant.
If we find a sewer blockage at your property caused by flushing wet wipes, paper towels, diapers or other such items, we will bill you for our time and trouble.
Novimium, an Oncor contractor, will be doing some work on a transformer on Monday, June 11th. This will effect parts of West Mountain Lane.
They will have the power back on as soon as they can. They are out here upgrading the transformers/underground cables.
And they will be changing iut this old style transformer sometime in the future.,
