We will have more information at the next meeting about replacing our mail boxes with community mail boxes. To do this would require at least a 70% approval of the homeowners.

There was a neighborhood contact sheet sent out with our last newsletter and homeowners can also get this form from our web site. The Grant Station sign is still being worked on. Herb contacted Lowe’s about yard of the month and they are sending him all kinds of information but not donating anything, so he believes it would be better to post a picture of the best looking yard on the website.
