May 20, 2015, 1:00pm. While management works on getting some certainty, the weather for next week is deteriorating. Currently there is a 50% chance of thunderstorms commencing Sunday and continuing through Friday. Sooooo, weather will be a factor and will complicate this project and prevent 100% accurate communications.

Want better weather forecasting? Watch Tom Skilling, who reputedly makes $2 million a year, has a staff of about 12, and seems to have great difficulty getting it right. When the highly paid "experts" can't provide reliable information, what is one to do?

May 20, 2015, 11:00am. We have been informed that the work cannot begin until May 26 or 27. The contractor will then begin working on water mains on the property. Refer to the aerial view and diagram in this post; the red lines are the locations of the mains where they cross Lakecliffe. One main will be replaced at a time. We are awaiting verification of precisely where  the water main work will begin, so that residents are aware of precisely where Lakecliffe will be closed on the first day. With this information residents will know if the South entrance is open and will also know the shortest route in and out of the property.

Hopefully, management will get timely updates out so residents know which entrance to leave from in the morning and how to get back to their residence during the day and at the end of their work day. That's my goal, anyway. Keep your fingers crossed. "Everything can be resolved in communications." But getting firm commitments out of contractors when Wheaton permitting and weather is involved can be a problem. Of course, I've been told by a very few residents that "We don't read your blog" and "We don't read the newsletter." I assume some also won't read the notices posted in their building entrance, either. Here's a reality check. The responsibility to communicate, and communicating responsibility is a two-way street.
