Maintaining Our Streets

Funded entirely by member dues, the Association organizes annual road maintenance to prolong the life of the roadways that all homeowners in the Association are responsible to maintain. 

This maintenance primarily involves application of liquefied asphalt sealing of the cracks arising from the annual freeze/thaw cycle and, in limited areas, the removal by jackhammer of deteriorated or sunken areas and installation of new asphalt patches.

This work significantly extends the life of our streets, saving each homeowner money in the long term by reducing the frequency of total road surface replacement, which is very costly.

Keeping the roads in our neighborhood in good condition also saves wear and tear on our vehicles as we enter and exit the neighborhood. It benefits our property values and makes the area a more pleasant place to live in. Even if your street hasn't been patched or sealed recently, your household benefits from this work.

The Association also organizes infrequent replacements of road surface. This was last performed in 2000, at considerable expense, and requires support of two-thirds of households on a street-by-street basis. Payment of annual dues helps to forestall this undertaking.

Upcoming Road Work

Update, June 28, 2022
We plan to have a contractor perform a round of pothole filling in the upcoming weeks to address some of the rougher areas that have developed. We will provide updates here as the work is scheduled. We will also be looking to perform more durable patching in selected areas as the budget allows later in the summer.
