We will be electing two new directors to the five-person SVHOA board at the association’s annual meeting early in 2011. Consequently, the Nominating Committee is seeking names of possible candidates.
If you, or anyone you know, might be interested in these important volunteer positions, please email bod@southernvillage.org to learn more about the opportunity.
The SVHOA Board of Directors were busy at their August meeting approving plans to make improvements in Southern Village. The Board approved new plantings for Arlen Park. Once the summer heat ends, Ecoscapes will add plants to the outer edges of Arlen Park. As you might know, this landscaping has dual purposes: (1) erosion control & (2) beautification. Also, this fall residents will also see Jon Hanna, from Ecologic, working on street trees near (in front of) the condominiums. Both of these projects will be finished before the end of the year.
The SVHOA Board of Directors approved the Townhome Committee’s request to have the black iron railings painted. CS Painting will begin work on Monday, September 13, 2010. The project will continue for about 4 weeks. Work will take place from 8am to 6pm, weekdays.
The below letter was mailed to all Townhome owners.
The August 3rd Board meeting minutes are now available.
On Tuesday, August 3rd the SVHOA Board of Directors voted to approve the new SVHOA Landscaping Guidelines. Specifically these guidelines are for the area between the sidewalk & the street.
Tonight, the SVHOA Board of Directors kicked off its budget cycle for 2011. If you have suggestions or comments about the budgets for next year, please send them to the Board, via e-mail: bod@southernvillage.org.
There will be no ARB meeting in August. If you have a submission, please send an e-mail to arb@southernvillage.org by Monday, August 9th & it will be reviewed. Otherwise all submissions will be reviewed at the next scheduled meeting. As a reminder the ARB meets the 3rd Wednesday of each month @ 7pm at Weaver Street Market.
Owners of the Southern Village townhomes have seen much activity recently. The front doors & shutters have a fresh coat of paint & rotten wood has been repaired & painted. Kil-Mor has been inspecting the townhomes for termites, treating the homes when necessary & notifying owners if problems exist.
The landscaping team at Ecoscapes has applied new mulch & has finished trimming the shrubs. All the townhomes look quite refreshed in this hotter than normal summer.
Jon Hanna, the arborist at Ecologic, continues to prune the street trees in the community. He requests, once again, that residents with new trees near their houses water these trees weekly. Even a gallon or two of water can make a difference in this hot weather.
