Future Planning Ideas
We have been working on obtaining donations for the playground and hope to have some shipped very soon. A company has promised to send us 2 each steel/powder coated tables and benches and maybe a bike rack. All we have to do is pay the freight costs. Once we have the costs, the BoD will vote on whether or not to do this to improve the small park. The idea was well received by those who attended our annual meeting earlier this month.
We are working with Blanco Ingram Ready Mix for a discount on a small 38x38 concrete slab for a basketball court in the small park. WILL require us to do some self-help work for this project. More info to follow next month. We will need your help.
Trimming trees in the big park.
Demolishing and removing the old bathrooms in the big park.
We are still working and hope to get a LOTH POA Tax Exempt number…Will save us money
Finalize our road repair plan for 2016 and beyond.
Give us your ideas and PLEASE help with future work!!

2016 Start of a New Road Plan
We are developing a road repair/prioritization plan.
Keep in mind we have very few funds to do much so our plan is to tackle this in small chunks year by year.
Some roads will need chip seal, some milling and grading and some recovered with hot asphalt.
We will be meeting contractors in the next couple of months to get price quotes so we can determine how best to move forward. We hope to have this finalized soon so we can share it in a future newsletter.
If you OBJECT to having one of your side roads milled and graded, please let us know NOW so we don’t waste time in our meetings with the contractors for pricing.
