Dear Traditions Home Owners,
Last month, Princeton Place HOA requested our participation to absorb the cost of 2 Flock Video Cameras (rental charge of $2,000 per camera) that capture license plates, at our North and South entrance. We carefully considered the absorbent cost, alleged benefits, and who would have access to monitor activity, and unanimously declined their request to participate. Princeton place moved forward and installed 5 cameras in their neighborhood.
We are obtaining bids for the light poles to be painted along the esplanade, and the mailbox house as it’s currently very faded. We hired a new landscaper to address the ditch along Kuykendahl, we updated the entrance with fresh flowers and mulch at north entrance, and we replaced our faded USA & Texas flags on June 29, 2019.
The south entrance light has a photocell issue causing it to remain illuminated all day. We have contacted our electrician to replace the photocell which is located on top of the light, and we are in process of determining the best solution. (Updated). New LED lights have been installed at the south entrance, replacing the older, expensive, and malfunctioning lights. Replacing with more modern and efficient LEDs will save us considerable maintenance and electrical cost going forward.
Last month our fence was freshly stained and sealed and last week we believe a car sprayed mud on our freshly stained fence! The mud was hand-cleaned with a brush and hose early Sunday, June 23, 2019 in effort not to ruin the new stain.
Finally, we’re in the process of updating our extremely outdated 1983 deed restrictions. Updates will include a standard fine schedule for continued violations, fence restrictions were increased from 6’ tall to 7’ tall, and to protect our owners in the future we’re limiting the percentage our annual amount home owner dues can be increased.
The proposed deed restrictions will require 67% of Traditions home owners approval. Once the proposed changes are ready, we will walk door to door, send emails, post on our website, and schedule a special meeting for a final vote.
