This is to report some of the work that the Maintenance Committee has been doing so far this year. As we talked about at the Annual Meeting, the South Pool received an upgrade by re-plastering it with the same “Pebble Tec” plaster coating that we added to the North Pool four years ago. This “Pebble Tec” plaster has held up well and has a ten year warranty. It was an interesting process to watch because at one point we had eight workers with jack hammers all in the pool at once.
We have now completed changing all of the lighting at both pools to LED bulbs and we should be saving in electrical costs for years to come. The other issues at the North Pool include: replacing the main gate latch on the pool entrance and continuing to correct and maintain the old wiring throughout the pool area.
One major problem that we had involved vandalism at the South Pool ladies room. This is something that may be reported in the Security Committee Report but I would like to say that almost everything is fixed. We repaired the fixtures, the hot water heater, and water line to the sink. All other damage was mainly pick-up and cleaning. To prevent future issues, we have installed automatic door closures and security plates on both rest room doors.
We also installed a safety bar in the shower at the South Pool.
I would also like to thank all of the residents that have helped so far this year. Two specific projects that residents assisted us on were both done at the South Pool: Tim O’Sullivan repaired the emergency phone and Joseph Fercz rebuilt the picnic table. We appreciate everyone’s willingness to assist us on an as-needed basis.
