COMMUNITY BULLETIN BOARD
Shingle Project Update
April 25, 2025
As we complete week #8 of operations at the Five Pond Villas Community, we are pleased to report that the project is progressing smoothly and on schedule.
Although we initially lost some time due to adverse weather conditions, we successfully recovered several of those days by utilizing an additional labor force. As of today, the schedule indicates that the crews are on track to complete the first stage of 12 buildings by the first week of June. Minor complaints and concerns from residents have been addressed promptly along the way, which has helped maintain a positive flow of operations and communication.
We are now preparing to send the second batch of invoices, covering another 6 buildings. Based on recent feedback, we believe that the adjustments made to our documentation and communication processes with residents will have a much greater positive impact compared to the first billing cycle.
Regarding the concern about the attic fan at the pool house: Following our meeting with Mark, our team returned later that afternoon to double-check the unit, and we confirmed that the fan is indeed functioning properly. This power fan is equipped with a thermostat and humidistat.
Looking ahead, as temperatures begin to rise, we do anticipate that production may slow slightly due to weather conditions. However, at this point, there are no major issues to report, and we remain committed to maintaining the project’s momentum.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need additional information.
Best regards,
