IRRIGATION NEWS - WATER OFF - Irrigation shutoff was completed October 26, 2023.  Plan your individual sprinkler system winterization accordingly. 

 

*Phase 8 townhomes on Sedgebrook Ln will have their sprinkler blowouts completed by the townhome association. 

COMMUNITY POOLS CLOSE TUESDAY, 9/5.  Last open day this year is Labor Day (Monday).  

KEYCARDS MAY BE TESTED AT THE TENNIS COURT GATE TO ENSURE ACTIVE PRIOR TO POOL OPENING.
Contact management if you have access issues.

Community Pools Open Friday
MAY 26 – MEMORIAL WEEKEND

The community needs everyone’s assistance in keeping facilities clean of trash, furniture maintained and utilized appropriately, and in following all facility rules for the safety and enjoyment by all.

**HOURS OF OPERATION. 9am-9pm. The pool area needs to be vacated by
closing time. If you have not entered the pool to swim by 8:30pm please
refrain from doing so to avoid staying after-hours which may result in loss of
privileges.

**ROLL UMBRELLAS DOWN AFTER USE. These are very expensive to replace ($700+ each). The wind can cause havoc on the canopies, so it is important this is done by each user. Use caution when rolling them up/down so damage does not occur to the crank or webbing.

 

**NO FENCE CLIMBING. This will result in suspension/loss of pool privileges. Use the gate for entry and exit. Children under 14 years of age must be accompanied by an 18+ adult.

**NO ENTRY WITHOUT ACTIVE KEYCARD. Please do not open the gate for anyone outside your household & accompanied guests. Only those with active keycards have permission for entry and use of HOA facilities. Keycards may be deactivated for several reasons including delinquent dues and not having waivers on file.

 

**GUESTS MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT RESIDENT AT ALL TIMES.

ADDITIONAL REMINDERS: (read all rules)

• No alcohol or glass containers.
• HOA and Irrigation (Lakemoor Water Assn) dues must be current.
• Shower prior to entering the pool.
• No pets are allowed in the pool area.
• No loud music or offensive language or behavior.
• Be patient and courteous with other swimmers and share the pool.

UPDATE 4/17/23:  The Water Assn is continuing to flush the main line system today.  They plan to have this completed by Tuesday morning and the system should be operational and available for resident access thereafter. Residents may wish to wait a few more days to allow any residual debris in the lateral lines to clear before strating individual systems.  Don't forget to check and clean your sprinkler filters regularly throughout the season.  Thank you for your continued patience.

Prior post:

Please do not turn on your water until notification is posted to the website that water is available for resident use. This should be no later than April 15. 
 
> The Lakemoor Water Association is testing the system beginning the week of April 3rd. You may see water running in common areas and on the community boundaries by the Pamela Baker Park and Three Bridges Way creek area. 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 no later than 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, 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 Development Services at 208-939-6000 during business hours (M-F, 9-5). 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!
