Items of Community Importance

This information was emailed to a select few ~if you would like to be on that email list, please call any of our Board Members and request to be added to Tom's informational email list.

He began this sorely needed communication as a way to help share information about our community.
It is not an official email for any group or organization. Its only purpose is to keep the community informed about significant events, activities and other important items. Tom's intent is to keep our Virginia Oaks community advised.

Items of importance:

Everyone knows about the highway construction that will occur in Gainesville. It will be very complex and will take a few years. However, when it is completed we'll have a better transportations system. The old Sun Trust Building will be the VDOT headquarters and will be open to the public. There you can review the plans when VDOT activates the interactive demonstration project. It should become functional in late April.

According to the project engineer, demolition of the property in the right of way should begin this month. Thankfully, we'll get rid of the eye sores.

If your are interested go to the Virginia Oaks web site and hit the VDOT project web site. There you'll find additional information on the construction

The VOA Board is considering a community meeting about the project. At the annual meeting many of you stated that you would attend such a meeting. More on that later.

Just an FYI, Redmond Community Management is still our community management group. However, the Redmonds do not own the business and it was sold in January . I don't think we'll see any changes in the way the community is managed.

At the last VOA Board meeting approval was given to sell of easement rights at the front entrance to VDOT. These rights are needed for utility undergrounding. Most important, the front area will be put back into top shape once the work is completed.

If you are an original owner, and you have rotten casement windows, you may be able to have those defective windows replaced. I understand that the windows carries a 15 year warranty, but it only applies to the original owner. I think Tom H. has information on this issue, if anyone needs it.

Also, please report any suspicious activity.
We are a "No Solicitors" community and all should be reported to the PWC Police at the non emergency number 703-792- 6500.
EMERGENCIES 911!

I hope you find this information helpful.
