HOME OWNERS MEETING

Reserve the date: June 2. Announcement forthcoming.

PAVING CONTINUES

Paving appears complete now (unless there's another 'coat',) from the east entrance up the hills both east and west. (The north side of the road will be lowered next.) The entrance driveway is temporarily both entrance and exit while a turn lane is being built into the exit drive.

FIRE

This was Sunday the 17th, facing East. The fire seems to have been beyond the road on the next ridge. This was not on Spanish Oaks property and appeared to have quite a way to go to reach us.

It turns out the fire was some distance beyond the next ridge, in West Oak Hill where homes were destroyed and many more threatened.

Windy warm low-humidity days have raised fire concerns.

TAR

Large trucks were lined up today as the paving-machine-beast was gobbling their loads and outputting a nice stream of paved highway 71 east of the east entrance. This will be more than obvious to those who live here, but I am posting for those absentee owners.

HIGHWAY 71

As of April 1st, 42.5% of the project is completed. CLICK HERE FOR FULL DETAILS.

PROPANE? CONPANE?

Underground community propane systems are made of several homes in a neighborhood connected to the same propane tank. There are 73 in the state, with 48 in Travis County and about 40 of those in western Travis County.

As you know, we have no choice. However, there's a pretty comprehensive story which you may have missed: Here it is. Click here.

FLAGMAN

Expect east entrance Flagging as they are starting to cut our traffic island back, prior to paving.

It'll be interesting to see if Daniel Porter puts back the Spanish Oaks name in stone, etc., which Discovery took out.
