WCA Owner/Tenant Contact Update Form

(click here)

Maintaining current contact information helps the board and its committees reach owners and tenants with important board announcements as well as during emergency events such as a water/gas main break or to report storm damage to vehicles or other property.  Each owner and paying tenant should complete a separate form.  Non-resident owners should enter their address at the end of the form.  Note: You do NOT need to have a Google account in order to update and submit the form.

WCA Snow Contractor Update for Sunday January 24, 2016

A status update from our snow removal contractor:

"1. Clusters will be made passable for fire and ems vehicles. This is a priority of ours and we focus on first. The plow operator working Waterview also is responsible for Hickory Cluster, Courts Cluster and Hunt Club Cluster. 

2. Once all of the drivers' properties are 'open', detail work will begin on properties. We have not started this phase of operations yet, but hope to soon.

I am sorry if this is not happening fast enough. This was an unprecedented storm that has left an incredible amount of snow to move around. We are working hard at getting everything cleaned up but it will take time.

Blizzard preparedness letter from the snow removal contractor, Perfect Landscapes.

Dear snow removal client,

We are sure by now you are well aware of this weekends impending potentially historic snow storm. This storm will produce heavy snowfall amounts and high winds. Blizzard conditions with snow fall rates of 1-3" per hour are expected. 

We have made sufficient preparations and are ready. That being said the very nature of a storm of this magnitude presents many challenges. Our equipment and employees will be pushed to their limits and in some cases beyond.

Throughout Friday night and Saturday during the heaviest snow we will be working hard to keep at least one lane open in your neighborhood. As the storm moves away from our area on Saturday evening we will begin the process of 'digging out'. It will most likely take until late Monday or possibly Tuesday before we are able to wrap up snow operations. 

Throughout the storm we will be periodically updating you with current information  regarding the state of our snow removal operations. 

During this time please be patient with us and understand that we are working as efficiently as we can considering the circumstances. We will get through it with determination and everyone's cooperation and understanding. 


Please be safe. 


Sincerely,


The Perfect Landscapes Snow Removal Team

Christmas Trees and De-Icing Materials

 HAPPY NEW YEAR!


Please find below the promised information about Christmas tree disposal and  de-icing product information.


  • Republic Trash and Recycling will be picking up Christmas trees on the first two Wednesdays of January.The first pick up will be tomorrow January 6.  The second and final pick up will be Wednesday, January 13th.  The trees will be recycled.  The naturalized areas of Waterview Cluster are not appropriate for disposal of any yard waste including Christmas trees. 

  • The sand buckets are in place throughout the cluster for use by residents.

  • Just a reminder about de-icing products.  We can avoid unnecessary degradation of our concrete walkways by using common sense about what we purchase.  Safe Paws is one of the available products both pet, plant and concrete friendly.

HELPFUL HINTS 

Using a de-icing product requires more than spreading it around. Knowing the age of a sidewalk and the product’s ingredients are important to prevent damage. Before buying a de-icing product, consider the following:
• Concrete sidewalks and steps should be at least six months old, otherwise they can be severely damaged by de-icing products.
• Products containing ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate should never be used since these will break down even the most durable masonry materials.
• Applying deicers near areas of vegetation can potentially harm plant life if strong enough concentrations build up in the soil
• To provide better traction use sand in combination with a deicer or by itself.

In Memory of Edward Nussbaum

Ed Nussbaum, a neighbor and friend passed away at home on the morning of December 25th.  You may remember Ed pulling in to the cluster in his beloved antique Dodge convertible with the top down and a big smile on his face.  He loved that car, he loved Waterview Cluster, he loved a good pun, but most of all he loved his spouse, Linda.
