Work began last week on the replacement of the deck boards
on the inner decks. To reiterate, end units will not be receiving any
work this year. As with any repair project and especially with this
one, your deck area will be a construction zone during the duration of the
work. The construction work will consist of; removing existing planks,
this will expose a hole in your deck. This condition is a safety
hazard. The contractor has promised to use caution tape on the doors but
please do NOT open the sliding door at this time. Once the planks are
removed they will be replaced with composite deck materials. Please do
not attempt to go on the deck until the caution tape has been removed and the
job is complete.
The next question we have received concern gas lines.
The natural gas lines come out of your house under your deck, the gas line is a
flexible hose that should never be attached to the deck in anyway. This
freestanding hose needs to be removed from any part of the deck. If it is
attached to the deck please have a plumber remove it. In addition, there
is to be no drilling into the new decks to accommodate gas lines. There
are no exceptions to this.
As the project develops we will have a better idea of the
time it will take to complete the project. With that we can develop a
time line for the project. We will inform the community as that becomes
more clear. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding during this
time.
As always if you have any questions or comments please
contact a board member or contact Bob Kelly. Thanks
