> The Lakemoor Water Association has been completing system testing and flushing the past week. The Lakemoor HOA landscapers
are performing common area system testing at this time. You may see water running in common areas. This is being monitored and may be related to system flushing activity. Please do not use water during the testing period.

 

Irrigation is managed by the Lakemoor Water Association. Water rights do not allow for access until sometime after April 1. Water will likely be available around April 15. *Townhome residents irrigation maintained by the townhome landscaper – we ask townhome residents please do not turn on nor adjust those systems.

Once the HOA has posted that irrigation water is available for resident use at www.dev-services.com, you may wish to wait an additional couple of days before opening your main valve and starting your individual irrigation system, to allow for any debris that remains in the system to be flushed out. This may reduce the impact on your individual system sprinklers. Don't forget to clean the filters on your sprinklers regularly
throughout the irrigation season so that your pressure and coverage is not seriously impacted by any debris that may be in the lines.

 

If you notice water staying on for hours or significant flooding in the common areas, please contact Alliance Management Partners Office: (208) 370-5914 | Manager Direct Line: 208-923-1187 during business hours (M-Th 9-5, F 9-3). If it is after hours and an emergency the issue may be reported to Franz Witte 208-278-2650. There will likely be some flushing activity at some main valve points by the Water Association during the testing period.

If you do not have water access at your home once it becomes available for resident use, consider checking with your neighbors to see if the issue is isolated to your property before seeking HOA/WA assistance. Many times at initial startup it is a valve or sprinkler system issue specific to a homeowner property. Periodically, there may be a community valve missed during turn on; or an area may be isolated for a repair. If you believe this may be the issue please contact management.

**TOWNHOMES ONLY (Sedgebrook Lane) | LOFTS AT LAKEMOOR NO 8 HOA: after hours emergency only irrigation flooding for private yards - calls directed to Franz Witte 208.278-2650. Please remove locks from gates fully before maintenance start time and be sure you have cleaned up after and removed pets from yards.

The HOA takes active measures to mitigate geese activity in the community for many reasons.  Informational article links are found here for those interested.  Thank you for your understanding on these processes.

It has recently come to the HOAs attention that the adverse winter conditions have caused for some metal property/locating pins to raise above the sidewalk in some areas of the community.  Luckily it seems that these pins may be easily hammered back down to sidewalk level with a standard hammer.

 

As a reminder, it is each property owners responsibility to maintain the sidewalk and the landscape strip (with sod, trees, etc.) that is adjacent to their property.  As such, the Board requests that everyone inspect their sidewalks for any protruding pins and take the necessary actions to address the safety concern.  

 

If you notice any pins protruding from sidewalks adjacent to HOA common area property, or on sidewalks along Colchester Dr., please let Shurie with Development Services know the approximate location for follow-up (Shurie@dev-services.com; 208-939-6000x202).

 

Thank you!
