Lake Wall Construction Underway

After rain and contractor delays we have some progress on wall projects several homeowners elected to do. It will likely take a few weeks to finish the walls. The lake water levels will return to somewhat normal levels after a few rainstorms.

Lake Drop in March 2015

We’re going to be dropping the lake levels to provide homeowners along the lake an option to repair or replace their lake wall. We will also have an engineering company inspect the lake and overflow at this time. The current target is 3/18/15 and will remain lower for several weeks. If you have any questions or concerns contact the trustees.

Trustee and Lake Homeowner Meeting 1/22/15

Dougherty Lake Subdivision Trustee and Lake Homeowner Meeting
January 22, 2015 – 7:00 pm
All trustees and lake homeowners were present.

Jim Gruenewald went over the specifics of pricing for the new stone walls. He stated that pricing was dependent on them committing quickly so that work can begin immediately.
Mark and Jerry will not be using the stone. Mark replaced his wall 6 years ago and Jerry prefers to just repair his wall for now. This is the only exception the Trustees will allow going forward. For consistency, we will require homeowners who wish to replace their walls use the stone.
Mark was concerned about how the stone wall would be attached to his wood tie wall and Jerry Parrish assured him he would curve the stone wall inward at the corner to protect Mark’s wall.
Three homeowners confirmed they would move forward with the stone wall. Two other homeowners were indecisive. They assured us they would make a decision very soon.

Meeting adjourned at 8:00 pm.
Respectfully submitted by Carel Reynolds, Communications Trustee

Fountains this Winter

What’s up with the fountains? Don’t we normally take them out in winter?

It was decided due to the high cost of taking the fountains in/out and the cost to replace a motor it was just as cost effective to run the fountains through the winter months this year.
