The pool is closed today for maintenance, following the large amount of people who used it on Saturday. The water is cloudy, it needs to be treated with chemicals and vacuumed several times. No one can swim in it until it is properly maintained. The BBQ grill area was also left in disarray and must be cleaned up; I think we will start charging a clean up fee/deposit for those who want to use it, so we can pay someone to clean up after them if they fail to cleanup after themselves.
Plus, after being open about 2 weeks, we are having problems with our residents and guests not listening to and disrespecting the pool monitors, starting fights, and generally disturbing everyone that lives in the general area of the pool. People having fun is totally acceptable; people yelling and swearing at each other, trying to start fights and other total nonsense will not be tolerated.
Any homeowner, renter, their families or guests who cause a disturbance will be asked to leave the pool. Anyone causing two such disturbances will be banned from the pool until opening day next year.

It has been raining for three weeks now, and the ground it totally saturated. We do have standing water in places around the subdivision, but not for lack of trying to get them to drain off into the storm drains. Some of these pathways are shallow ditches which were recently hand carved into the ground and we will need to make them more permanent in the near future. However, we have to wait for the ground to dry out before we can insert either a concrete trench or a half-pipe so these drain channels do not fill in and become useless.
We get calls to the Office from homeowners who want their gutters cleaned out because the rain overflows them and their thought is the gutters are blocked by leaves or some other materials. In actuality, the 4″ gutters and 3″ x 4″ downspouts simply cannot channel the total volume of rain falling across your roof.
You can only put so much water into a 4″ gutter system, with 3″ x 4″ downspouts. That’s why the water runs over the sides of the gutters during heavy rainfall.
The Pool will be closed Saturday, May 23, and Sunday, May 24, due to thunderstorms. We hope to reopen the Pool on Monday, May 25, weather permitting.
In observance of Memorial Day, both the Office and Maintenance will be closed. There will be no trash pickup. We will be doing trash pickup on Tuesday, May 26 and will be placing notices on each home today. Please do not put out any trash earlier than Tuesday to avoid being fined.
We are having a Large Item pickup tomorrow, and have put out notices on every home a few days ago. We will do the usual trash pickup, followed by large items; we will not pick up any hazardous household waste. See Grand Prairie website for information for drop-off for these items.
The Pool will be closed until the morning of Friday, May 22nd, which is our usual opening date for Memorial Day weekend.
The Pool will be open tomorrow between the hours of 3:30 – 8:30 PM. The weather may change;we will close the pool if weather gets bad again.
The Pool Schedule for 2015 is available from the menu above.
We had intended to open the Pool this weekend (May 16th), but the current weather forecasts are for continued thunderstorms though next week. We cannot open the Pool if there is any lightning locally. We will shoot for opening on Memorial Day weekend, as usual, and will let you know if things change.
