2013 WOPHA Enhancement Projects
Nov. 5, 2013
Dear Woods of Parkview Members:
Your elected Board of Directors has completed a number of enhancement projects this year. Thank you to all who have contributed to this work and offered suggestions. The directors also thank each of you for your timely dues payments, which made these improvements possible. Highlights:
Landscaping -- Hired a new, professional company to maintain grounds. Spread roughly 400 bales of pine straw. Added various other ground cover to pool, tennis courts and front entrance that will be attractive and low-maintenance, reducing long term costs of pine straw.
Pool House -- Added a ceiling to finish the inside of the facility, enclosing the exposed rafters for a clean, sophisticated look. Replaced facia boards and gutters. Added gutter guards and vented soffits to the exterior. Repainted wood trim.
Tennis -- Replaced the court fence and repainted the fence posts and overhead lights for a quality look. Woods is one of the few swim-tennis communities in our area. Such facilities add value to our individual properties, as they are attractive to new families.
Diving Board -- Replaced the spring board and ladder after cracks were discovered. Professionally refinished the stand. Woods of Parkview is one of the few neighborhood pools that can boast having a midrise professional diving board. This board is now set for another 20 years or more of service.
Parking -- Laid and leveled new gravel for the parking lot, protecting against erosion and providing a neat look.
Social -- Reintroduced a pool party for adults to socialize and get to know other members better.
Future Projects under consideration:
Replace Concrete at top of swim-tennis driveway.
Rehab tennis court viewing platforms.
Permanent landscaping and fence rehab at entrance.
Playground relocation.
Regards,
Board of Directors
