November 2023 Project Updates

Nov 7, 2023 | Updates

ANNUAL PUBLIC BOARD MEETING!
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 7TH AT 7 PM AT THE POOL HOUSE.

This is the eleventh project update of 2023.

Elections – There are currently two board members up for re-election to the board; Michael Hearn and Joe Hartley. No other community members have expressed an interest to run for the board. The election will take place at the annual meeting on November 7th. We must have a quorum of residents to submit a proxy vote and/or attend the annual meeting in person to make the election official. Please attend if you can.

Deed Restrictions – We have completed the revisions of the deed restriction document and will be presenting highlights of the changes at the annual public meeting on Nov. 7th at 7 pm at the pool. Our timeline for completing the project, which includes legal review, resident approval and filing the new document with the county, is still on target for the end of January, 2024.

Lake – Despite significant efforts to stop/reduce seepage out of the lake, we are still losing water at an abnormally high rate. The board is strongly considering another water mitigation process to help reduce the seepage out of the lake. This is a process that includes adding a chemical additive to the lake called ESS-13. ESS-13 is a liquid polymer emulsion that reduces the hydraulic conductivity of soils beyond their natural capability by filling voids in the lake bottom. There will be more discussion about this at the annual meeting.

Street Lights – Our current street light configuration includes standard commercial bulb illumination, which is maintained by Center Point Energy. We have signed a consent waiver to have our bulbs transitioned to LED style lighting. This will be a savings on our electrical bill and will increase nighttime lighting on our streets. Work should be completed by mid-2024.

There has also been discussion about a lighting system being added to the common area walkways throughout the neighborhood. The board is still researching this and considering options.

Website – We will be launching the 2.0 version of our website soon. Look for an improved layout, look and new information.

Landscaping – We are beginning the winter season so landscaping duties are designed to simply maintain our vegetation and manage any unforeseen problems. Volunteers are continuing to trim trees, weed eat common areas and maintain the well pumping station.

The sidewalk slated for installation between the subdivision entrance and Louetta Rd. is still progressing. We are expecting this project to be completed by M.U.D. #5 by the end of the year. There is no cost to our community for this project.

Fencing along Louetta Rd. – The private fencing along Louetta Rd. continues to deteriorate and in many places is falling down. The board is responsible for maintaining two cul de sac sections, one at the end of Wendover Creek Ct. and the other at the north end of Stoneridge Park Ln. We have secured bids for getting the work done on these two sections of fence and we are meeting with the thirteen residents that back to Louetta Rd. to get their input on a common style of fence. There will be more discussion about this at the annual meeting.

To communicate with the Board, do one of the following: 1) Send an Email to the member with the duty responsibility you are inquiring about, and he/she should reply within days. 2) Use the website blog to discuss issues and ask questions. 3) Email directly to the Board member with the duty responsibilities you have questions or comments about.
