The Pool will be closed for the next few days due to weather and maintenance. We hope to reopen it on Friday, June 19th.
GP Animal Services – After the visit from Renee Johnston at our June 4th meeting we did not realize just how many pages there would be nor did we know what it would cost to make a ton of copies for those who wanted them. So, we are opting to publish the website where you can find these ordinances.
Chapter 5 – Animal Services Code of Ordinances
This information is also on the GP Links page. We will get 25 copies made and have them in the Office.

Beginning today, June 9th, 2015, we are changing the Pool schedule. The Pool is open from 11 AM to 9 PM on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Pool is closed on Monday and Thursday for chemical additions and other maintenance.
Sundays hours will remain 12 Noon to 8 PM.
No one under 18 year of age is allowed within the Pool area without Adult supervision. No Exceptions !!
The pool will be closed tomorrow as we repair the ladders on the deep end of the pool. This is as a result of excessive playing on the ladders by a large number of kids on Saturday. The repetitive pulling on the ladders has loosened the attachment device embedded in the pool decking.
We hope to have this repaired tomorrow; if not, we will let you know.
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.
