Progression On Entrance Lights

This past week a brick mason came out to build a brick container around each entrance light. He gave us a fair price yet it was still costly. Because of the cost, only one side will be lit at night. Optimistically, we hope that by encasing the fixtures in brick it will be more difficult for vandals to destroy. Of course nothing is indestructible as mentioned in Lights Out . HOA explored the idea of metal cages covering the lights.That idea was quickly abandoned when it was discovered that a cover for each light would need to be specially crafted by a metalworker. Each cage would have cost well over one hundred dollars per light.

Heather Pointe residents are entering and leaving the community at all times of day and night.

Once the work on the lighting is finished it will be left up to us all to alert the Sheriff's Department of any suspicious activity. Calls can be left anonymously.

WEEDERS NEEDED ***************************************There are pros and cons with a beautiful garden. The beautiful colors of the flowers and their pleasant fragrances. are a delight. Keeping out the weeds and watering can be a chore. Be sure that anyone with a neat, colorful yard has spent lots of time and money to keep it that way.
The planters at the entrance need weeding. The presence of unwanted plants(weeds) distorts the beauty of the flowers. The possibility of replacing the flowers in the next season with low growing shrubs has been discussed. These would require very little maintenance and would be permanent. If you can help weed the entrance planters please do so. No need for permission. "Just Do It."

NO TRESPASSING !!!!!

First impressions can be gained by the outside of your home. As stated above most people with beautiful yards work hard and pay dearly to keep them that way. Children walking across lawns that are not their own and using a neighbor's yard as a shortcut is trespassing. The power boxes make great seats but if they're not on your property you are trespassing. Allowing pets to run free ( even at night) and use another's property as a toilet is a form of trespassing. Let's be conscious of the rights of others.

Lights Out !

By now you have noticed that the community entrance to Heather Pointe is unlit at night. This is due to an act of vandalism committed by person(s) unknown in June. The vandals took one of the stones from the planter and smashed it into the light fixtures, rendering them inoperable. HOA sought the professional help of an electrician as to what could possibly be done to curtail future damage. He has suggested that the lights be encased in a protective metal cover bolted in concrete . Though no method is foolproof if a criminal is intent on his/her crime, HOA will have the LIGHTS ON once this work is finished.

The community is advised to keep watch of questionable characters lurking about, especially late at night. Phone the Sheriff's office (911) of any suspicious activity. Your call can be made anonymously. The residents of Heather Pointe should not be subjected to acts of vandalism in any form.
