We will be doing repairs on the 2″ water meter located near E. Mountain Creel Court and Warrior Trail. Water will be shut off at 9 AM on Wednesday morning
The properties impacted by this repair are 58 to 92 East Mountain Creek Court. We will have the water back on as soon as possible.
On Friday morning, we found 2 bags near West Creek Lane, and one of them contained drug paraphernalia. We did turn these bags over to the Police.
We are posting this because these bags were found within 20-30 feet of where kids wait for the school bus to pick them up and some child might have explored these bags and gotten poked by the syringe in it.
Please advise your kids about finding strange items on property. We have had uncapped syringes found on common property on the West side his year. If your kids do find something suspicious, advise them to leave it alone and call the Police.
We have had 2 break-ins on the West side that we know of during the week. Both of them were at the same house which is unusual, on Monday and again on Wednesday; both times they entered through the bedroom window under the carport, and it was repaired on Tuesday. This same property was broken into before a month or so ago and the owner lost a large sum of cash; perhaps they were hoping the owner left more cash laying around.
Someone had to see these folks skulking around or hear them. I imagine there have been other incidents which we have no heard about, such as attempted home and car burglaries. This time of year, the miscreants are hoping for presents and money, and the unattended package on the front porch.
Let’s all keep an eye on our surroundings and people that look out of place. There are a lot of random people walking around that do not live here, and at least 2 people living in the woods on the West side and they may think of this area as an easy target. Please report suspicious people or vehicles to the Police. I have asked for additional patrols through here.
If you see someone that looks out of place or looking around to see if anyone is watching them, please call the Police.
Terry will be having neck surgery on Thursday and will be out for 4 to 6 weeks for recovery. During this time, we will have someone in temporarily to answer the phone, take messages and fill out work orders.
Beginning December 9th, the Office will be open from 9 AM to 3 PM on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
We may have to change this schedule based on how things go over the next few weeks, and how long the temp people can work.
The temporary office people will have limited knowledge of the HOA rules, etc., so please be kind to them.
We are lucky to have Terry as she is very familiar with our owners and renters after being here for almost 6 years. I will be doing the AP/AR work and taking care of the accounting software, and other office things.
We wish Terry a speedy recovery.
Once again, we have someone vandalizing our signs, this time on West Townhouse Lane. This one is the worst, but they marked over 2 of the Visitor Lot signs. These signs are about $20 each and are custom signs. If anyone has an idea on who is doing this, please let us know.
It seems someone on a dirt bike decided to run from PD around lunch time, which is never a good idea.
They saturated the West side with 6 to 8 units, plus the helicopter, and I am told they chased him around the property for a short while.
A Sergeant came into the Office later on to let us know they arrested the individual.
The HOA is open on Veterans day, both the Office and maintenance, and we will pick up trash as usual.
During the Fall months, we are replacing sidewalks around the property. The photos below are of a section of sidewalk that was getting pretty bad. We are replacing sections as we go, and doing the worst ones first. We have tried some repairs in certain areas, but they are short lived. So, we cut up the old sections and replace them. Some sidewalks here do not have any mesh or re-bar, and some are less than a few inches thick. We are also inserting pins along the edge when we mate up old and new sections to add rigidity.
Once again, we are fortunate to have maintenance guys capable of doing many things; we save a lot of money as compared to hiring contractors to do this stuff.
Please remember to either wrap the pipes in the outbuilding (2 story units) or have a small heater in it to keep the pipes from freezing. We have 4 to 6 outbuildings end up with broken pipes following a freeze.
Office hours will change next week as Terry takes a well deserved vacation. She will be leaving at noon tomorrow, Friday, September 20th.
We will have someone here next week to answer phones, fill out work orders, etc. but they are not familiar with everything that we do here.
The Office will be open from 8 AM to 4 PM from Monday, Sept 23rd through Monday, September 30th.
We will go back to usual hours, 8 Am to 5 PM, on Tuesday, October 1st.
