Community clean-up day

The board has begun working our community clean-up/improvement day.  We haven’t picked a date yet but wanted to get feedback from the community on what they want to see done.  We have had a few requests for tree removal and tree trimming.  We also had requests regarding the condition of the ponds in the community.  We have begun to plan for these items and other beautification efforts but we need your help.  Of course we would love our neighbors to pitch in and participate in the effort.  We also need your input; is there a dead, dying tree in the front of your home?  Are there tree limbs that you think need trimming?  Are there dead shrubs in your area?  Are there invasive plants that don’t belong and need to be removed?  Please let us know.  We can look at the property and evaluate but hearing from you can make all the difference.  So please let us know so we can effectively plan a successful event.  Please call AA or send an email to the island-gate email.  islandgatehomeowners@gmail.com

Thanks for your help and participation and let us know if you are interested in participating too!!!

Get your vote in

The election ballots have been mailed out and you should have received them.  If you didn’t please call AA immediately.  Please vote!!!  The vote is no contest but we need a quorum for the election to be official.  In addition our annual meeting and election will be held  on Friday September 20, 2013 at 7:30 pm at the Stafford Township Municipal Building.  We will be holding the election but happy to review and discuss our financials, condition of the community, plans for improvement etc.  So come share your views,  learn what’s going on in the community.   We look forward to seeing you there. 

Sept 14th and 15th The last weekend for the pool

Sadly this weekend, Sept 14th and 15th are the last days the pool will be open this year.  We hope you have enjoyed the pool this summer and it’s condition met your expectations.  As always if you have any thoughts, comments, critiques etc. about the pool or suggestions for 2014 please feel free to let a board member know.

Dog waste in the community

Once again one of our neighbors is less than diligent in picking up dog waste.  This time the complaints are coming from the Bay Ave part of the community.  Please pick up the waste.  Our neighbors are looking for the offender and are ready to report you.  Thanks to our neighbors for picking up after your dogs and for being diligent.  And thanks to our concerned neighbors for pointing this out.   

Another chance to have your dryer vent cleaned, Sept 28th

Due to popular demand and some requests by our neighbors who missed the first chance we are trying to see who is still interested in getting their dryer vents cleaned.  The date would be Sept 28th and it will be the same company that did our vents in August.  The cost will vary based upon the number of people responding and could be as low as $40 per unit.  If you are interested please reply promptly to islandgatehomeowners@gmail.com 
with your name, phone number, and address.
