New Hampton Woods Info

4/28/09

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to give you an update. I called DNI yesterday and talked to Sheila about the entrance lights being on 24-7. She told me that they are on a sensor and there must be something wrong with it. She said that it would be taken care of. I also asked her about the playground. I said that it was looking pretty shabby that it needed more mulch, especially underneath the swings. I also asked her who was in charge of mowing the empty lots and she didn't know.

I then called TR Hughes (940-9300) and talked to Carol. She's always very nice. She didn't know about the lots so I left a voice message with Jason Hughes. Carol called me back later that day and said that Jason had contracted with a company to start mowing the empty lots. I asked her how often it would be done and she said once a month. I said that they need to cut them really short, that they usually don't do a very good job and that they should get their moneys worth. She said that they would start doing this soon. If you have any problems call them at 940-9300.

We can certainly give this a try! I will find out how to post the newsletter (through Katie) on here. And I can also e-mail the newsletter in a .pdf format so that you can print a hardcopy if that is what you prefer. Just e-mail me your e-mail address to annt07@gmail.com. Thanks Katie-I think this is a terrific idea and can work. We just need to get others on board.
