Water System Work Resumes Next Monday… Feb 18

Posted on February 13, 2019 by Thom Hoch

from Gene Fisher…

Work to replace our water services will begin again on Monday, Feb 18. Monday and Tuesday the contractor will finish work on west Hilltop. On Tuesday or Wednesday they will begin on Dogwood. Madrone and Spruce will be next followed by east Hilltop.

Also; If leaseholders have a special type of gravel or something like cinders around your water service, please rake it back prior to the start of work on your lot.  It can then be used to cover the new fill material that the contractor will provide.

Recent Snow Art… Courtesy of Park Manager

from the Office…

The morning of Tuesday, February 5, 2019 brought us the first actual snowfall that stuck to the ground. Bringing out the “inner kid” in our Park Manager, Randy decided it was time to make a snowman. Here is his creation … a mere 8″ in height and perched upon the yellow guide pole behind the Office. Complete with stick arms and face … isn’t it just adorable?!

Water System Update Feb 4

Posted on February 4, 2019 by Thom Hoch

from Gene Fisher…

Water System Project Outlook

Work this week will continue on western Hilltop. The contractor who is doing the work had a vacation schedule for the following week and so the replacement of services will pause for a week. In the interim, the Park manager and volunteers will construct a new service to lots 88 and 89.

Work will begin on Dogwood once Hilltop is finished. next will be Madrone followed by Spruce and the eastern part of Hilltop. Once the work on upper Hilltop is completed, the need to shut off the water to the whole Park will not be so frequent.

The Budget Committee has developed a plan for paying for the project to be considered by the Board at its February meeting.

Water Project Update – February 1

Posted on February 1, 2019 by Thom Hoch

From Gene Fisher…

We regret having the water turned off to the entire Park. We know it is inconvenient for people. We try to shut off the entire Park as infrequently a possible and for as short a period as we can.

On Monday, plans to replace the water services on Dogwood were cancelled because the company responsible to locate the Parks Communications cable failed to adequately locate and mark them as is required prior to excavation.

Rather than lose two days of work, I directed our contractor to begin work on western Hilltop, a street where the unities had been located and marked. Western Hilltop is also the only area in the Park south of State Canyon in which all of the control valves needed to isolate the water supply have not been located.

West Hilltop will probably be completed next week, then we will move to Dogwood.

New Years Day Hike a Great Success

Posted on January 9, 2019 by Thom Hoch

Bob Feiler (lot 143) reports…

We had a great day for a hike on the first of January and 16 of us enjoyed a walk on Happy Hill trail. Phase 2 is open and plans are to have Phase 3 completed by mid July. A big thanks goes out to everyone who came out, for Joan who put out flyers, to Bob Grant for putting out gravel and to Mary for letting me play in the dirt building trail.

From the Family of Nusha De Young…

Posted on October 1, 2018 by Thom Hoch

Rick De Young and the family of Timber Valley resident Nusha De Young wish to express their gratitude to all the residents who were able to attend her memorial service in the Timber Valley club house last Friday afternoon. Thanks are also extended to those folks who baked and brought food and made the punch that was offered. It was truly incredible to see approximately 90 people attend the memorial service and have more than enough refreshments, all with less than two days notice!

Pastor Stewart Fowler, soloist Betsii Outland, pianist Helen Schrader and friend Becky Holm all made the memorial service special to all who attended and we thank them for their tributes to Nusha.

Funeral arrangements are being handled by Umpqua Valley Funeral Directors of Roseburg, Oregon and burial will occur with a short service at the Roseburg National Cemetery on Wednesday, October 3, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. Reverend Stewart Fowler will conduct that service. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests those who wish to do so make donations, in Mabel De Young’s name, to the Roseburg Community Cancer Center or to the American Cancer Society.
