A/C Cleaning

It’s that time of year. The cottonwood trees are done shedding their seeds and it’s time to clean you’re a/c. The fuzzy white balls that float through the air get lodged into the grills of the air conditioning units and then get drawn into the water drain tubes inside. In order to avoid cottonwood seeds clogging up the tubes and causing water to overflow into your furnace closet and ultimately down through the neighbor below, we need to clean them out. The Association will have maintenance do so for only $29.00 including a new furnace filter. Please set up time with Laurie at the office (361-2880) at your earliest convenience. Thank you to all the residents who have already had their air conditioners cleaned. Preventive maintenance helps everyone.

Pool & Hot Tub

We have replaced the hot tub sand filter and motor. They had reached that time in life where just repairing them was no longer a solution. Please enjoy.

New Pool Furniture

The Association uses Buyer Transfer Fees and 10% of your dues to make capital improvements to the property. In 2020, the Board elected to remodel the clubhouse with a new kitchen, LVT flooring and new upgraded furniture at a cost of just over $30,000. This summer, they added new pool and patio furniture, using $18,000 of the reserves to do so. If you have been in the clubhouse or up to the pool, you are missing some dramatic improvements to our community. We have received lots of positive feedback on both.

Maintenance Staff

We have lost one maintenance person (Kenn Carrier) and gained another (Greg Westbrook). Greg will be responsible for general common area maintenance of the property as well as service requests of the special needs inside your condo residents. The charge to residents is $25/hour (1/2 hour minimum billing increments) plus the cost of materials. If you haven’t met Greg yet, please take time to introduce yourself.

Smoking on Decks

Please as a reminder to not smoke on your deck. If you are a smoker, we need you to understand that open windows and a/c units draw cigarette smoke inside of both yours and your neighbor’s condo as well.

Parking

It’s summer-time and that makes it easy not to use your carports. Please remember that we need space for guests and vendors to park when they visit the property. If everyone parks at the curb, there is no place for them to go.

Laundry Room Floors

Please help keep the laundry rooms clean. Only laundry containers and supplies should be deposited in the waste baskets. All laundry room floors have been cleaned and waxed in July. If you have any issue with the machines, please call Wash Laundry. Their number is posted. If you do not get service within 3 days, please call the office and we will follow-up.
