Current Projects Underway!
** January 2009 - Projects Update ***
The Donovan ditch repairs have been
completed.
Welcome to new board members:
Dave Brown
Dennis Williams
Jeanie Bettcher
Anna Toler
** August 2008 - Projects Update ***
Concrete slabs have been installed and new
picnic table sets have been placed in the common areas
We have met with a couple of engineers to
try to make some progress on the ditch repairs and always seem to end up back on
square one. Each new prospect seems to have potential, but ends up not
following through. We are diligently trying to get this project completed.
We have been trying to recruit new
potential board members for the upcoming annual meeting. (Saturday August 16,
2008)
Dues and special assessments have been
being collected and we are down to approximately 12 association members that
still owe.
** May 2008 - Projects Update ***
Annual Meeting:
This year's annual meeting is scheduled for
Saturday, August 16, 2008 at 9am. This meeting will be held at First Baptist
Church of Seminole located at 32619 Browns Landing Rd, Seminole, AL 36574
Misc Info:
We are still waiting for a return call from
the engineer about ditch repairs. We are following up diligently to get these
repairs completed ASAP.
A meeting has been scheduled for later this
summer with a biologist to discuss pond maintenance.
Yard Sale:
Community Yard Sale... do we want to have
one this year? If you are interested in leading this initiative, please contact
a member of the board.
*** March 2008 - Projects Update ***
Road repairs have been started
Some mailboxes were moved closer to the
road (with homeowner's permission) so that the mailman is not driving off the
road and breaking up the pavement. Dirt, gravel and sod have been added to
the roadsides to stop runoff and erosion. We are still working on getting a
contractor to make the ditch repairs.
We will be needing to add three new members
to the board this August. If you are interested in joining, pleas contact a
member of the board. You are welcome to attend any monthly board meeting to
get a feel of what is involved if you are not sure if you are interested.
Other Information:
Dave Westenfelder put a fresh coat of
sealant on the entrance signs.
The annual meeting is tentatively scheduled
to occur on Saturday, August 23, 2008. We are looking into a possible new
meeting place and will keep everyone updated.
If anyone has any article ideas for the
next SLOA Quarterly, please contact Lisa Salasek ASAP.
Community Yard Sale - we
are looking for a community member to head up the annual yard sale. If you
are interested, please contact a member of the board.
