General Meeting
October 17, 2006
Rocky Run Middle School

Present
Board: Kevin Corcoran, Jim Jones, David Schuetz
Management: Saundra Lucke
Guests:

Once again, we've had several mailboxes knocked down by vandals. Sometime overnight between Sunday, April 6 and Monday, April 7, 5 boxes were completely knocked off their posts on Autumn Glory Way. Another box was partially damaged on Cross Meadow Place, and another box on Autumn Glory (one of the green boxes for the Brookfield homes) seems to have been damaged, though it's not clear if either of those were due to the same vandals as the 5 with significant damage.

I've restored the Board Meeting Minutes lost from the website crash for the following meetings:

• March, April, May, July, August, October, November, and December 2006
• January, February, May, August, and September 2007

Well, about two months ago the web server crashed. I'd moved it into the garage while the basement was being finished, and it just got too cold and the hard drive failed. It's taken me this long to get stuff rebuilt, and for that I apologize.

Our Annual Meeting will be held Tuesday, April 15th, at 7:00 pm at Rocky Run Middle School, in the Small Theater.
The agenda includes the latest on Tri-State Management (formerly Koger), our budget, Bond Release, and most importantly, Board Elections. Three positions on the Board of Directors will be open for election. These slots are open to anyone in the community, even renters, so if you're interested in helping improve the neighborhood, please consider running for one of the slots!

Well, it's been a long while since I've posted much here. I've been a little busy these past nine months, with a new baby, new job, and a crazy holiday season. I'm hoping that I can do better in the future, and will be trying to put more useful information here more frequently.

We now have just about all of our streetlights installed. All but, it appears, four (three along Walney Park Drive and one at the corner of Autumn Glory and Henry Pond).

Recently, two lights were burnt out, and we had to call them in to Dominion Virginia Power for maintenance. When we do that, we need the ID code off the light pole. To make that easier (especially since the first batch of poles were ambiguously marked), I've put up a reference page listing all the lights in the community, and each light's ID tag.

In practice, though, we should probably not call Dominion directly. Instead, call the management company (their phone number is on the Contacts page), and tell them the address of the light that's out and, if possible, its ID tag. If a light presents a danger (like if it's been knocked over and is still live), then by all means call Dominion directly, but then please also call the Management Company so they'll be able to track the issue.
