Update on West Townhouse Lane

The City says they will be pouring concrete tomorrow, February 29th and the street will reopen on Monday at 10 AM. In the interim, the street is blocked completely and those who live on West Townhouse in the work zone will not be able to get to their carports until the repairs are completed.

2020 Paint Schedule

Painting season is upon us again, and this year we are painting the single story units starting at 31 – 45 West Townhouse Lane and continuing on the South side of the double drive (West Mountain Creek Drive) all the way to Belt Line Road.  This will include 2 thru 84 West Mountain Creek Drive (even numbers only).

As usual, we will pressure wash the buildings and do necessary repairs prior to painting.

Update on West Townhouse Lane

Sometime over the weekend, the City returned and packed in more dirt into the street and removed the barricades. The street is fully passable now  The Director of Public Works emailed me and said that they will be back out in the next few weeks to do a permanent repair of the street.

Here is what it looks like now:

Sewer trucks on property

For the past week or so, we have had sewer pumper trucks cleaning out the main lines on both sides of the property. Usually, they are TRA (Trinity River Authority) trucks, but the last few trucks are from a company called AIMS. The one shown below is on East Mountain Creek Court and Warrior Trail. Not sure how long they will be working on the East side.

Wet Wipes

We still have residents flushing wet wipes, even though we have notified residents not to flush them in the Information Notices we put out several times a year. The City also does not like wipes being flushed because it plugs up the filters at the treatment plant.

We have had several sewer blockages this month caused by people flushing wet wipes and we will bill you for removing them, especially after asking residents not to flush them.

Homeowners Insurance

It is that time again, where homeowners need to submit the Declaration Page of your insurance renewal for 2020. This is required by the Declaration (CC&R), section 5.2, which requires “cost-to-replace” insurance on your property.

Owners and/or your insurance agent can email or fax these to the Office. Email address is office@gpmcha.org, and our fax number is 972-692-7714

Residents in Visitor Parking

We have been having issues with residents, both owners and renters, parking vehicles in the Visitor Lots without the required Visitor Parking Permits displayed on the vehicle.

All visitor lots are clearly marked with signage that says:

In many cases, what people tend to concentrate on these signs is the “48 Hour Limit” part, thinking that phrase gives them 48 hours within which to park a resident vehicle in a visitor lot.  That is not the case, however. It says that Visitors can park in the visitor lot for a period of time no longer than 48 hours.

The next part of the sign details the consequences for violating the top part of the sign, towing at your expense. In the past month or so,we have towed about 6 or 7 resident vehicles parked in the visitor lots. These signs and the verbiage upon them are not new; the signs and these rules have been here for about 40-45 years.

We do understand that sometimes it is necessary to utilize the visitor lot  when getting work done on you property or if you have company over and they need to park closer to the house due to disabilities. We have notified folks in the Information notices we send out twice a year that if you need to park a vehicle in the visitor lot for a short period, you need to call the Office and let us know.

So, please keep this in mind and if you do need to park a vehicle in the visitor lot, call the Office. If the Office is closed,  leave us a message or use the Contact Us button in the menu.  I check that email address several times daily.
