We have been noticing that many people, residents and visitors alike, are driving through the property way too fast. Kids are out of school until the Fall, probably, and people are out walking and riding their bikes while we all try to stay home and stay healthy.
I have seen it all too often, some drivers are doing at least 40 MPH (maybe more), which is entirely too fast. We installed speed bumps in an effort to slow people down, but the result is some drive faster so they cannot feel the speed bumps. This is totally unsafe, unacceptable and damages the speed bumps. The bolts holding them in place are being sheared off.
The posted speed limit on property is 10 MPH for a reason. There are many blind corners here, including carports, and kids playing in and around our streets while they cannot go to school.
Please slow down when driving our streets.
The Board has decided to postpone the Annual meeting (March 27) and the April 2nd regular Board meeting due to the current situation with state, county and city closures. The next scheduled meeting is on June 4th and hopefully normalcy will return by then. If not, we will keep you advised.
We will be placing notices on each property early next week so everyone is aware of the postponement.
West Townhouse Lane is now open following repairs done by the City following a major water leak a few weeks ago.
As you can see from the photos below, the City has replaced a large area of the street with concrete, including the water drainage channel like it had before.
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.
We are sending out 2020 Election Packets later this week for the upcoming Annual Meeting on Friday, March 27, 2020 at the Grand Prairie Municipal Airport conference room, located at
3116 S Great SW Pkwy, Grand Prairie, TX 75052.

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.
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:
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.
