Our association is 40 years old, and so we have some real infrastructure problems to deal with. In the last eight years, we've addressed many issues on the property and are actually ahead of the curve. I know because I've served as Maintenance Director, Architectural & Projects Director and as President. I've dealt with every possible type of problem in the last eight years.
An unusually wet spring has created some havoc with projects. However, I did submit my preliminary list for 2018 to the board in December 2017 and so we were able to get bids and let contracts in March-May. So, while the weather is creating issues, we are actually on track to complete all of the major projects my mid-July. "Weather permitting" that is.
Currently, projects underway include:
- Repair curbs and concrete basins in one street.
- Replace asphalt on two streets.
- Repair a waterfall basin and portions of one stream.
- Replace a failed section of another stream.
- Replace shrubs which have been attacked and killed by the Viburnum Leaf Beetle.
- Complete drainage improvements related to the repairs of one waterfall basin.
- Replace three 4-car garage floors.
- Complete a gazebo replacement project.
- Replace a 4-car garage driveway and adjacent asphalt, severely damaged by a water main failure.
- Replace a walk damaged by the water main failure.
- etc.

Signage is up for the street repairs on two cul-de-sac. This too was delayed by weather a couple of days. Owners at each address are given updates which are posted in each building entry. Currently three notices are up!
We've got a great team. Board, management and contractors all working together. Is it perfect? Nope. Should it be? Nope.
