Hi all
-
Just a
quick note to say "thanks" once again for your patience and helpful
feedback, as the Board worked through the steps to get water back into our
neighborhood. We worked with Complete Property Mgmt., Settler's
Irrigation District Office staff, our designated ditch rider, ProVision
Landscape and Caron Pump Co. to identify all of the mitigating factors in our
low water flow situation - it was definitely a team effort - so a hearty "thank
you" to all involved...especially to our dedicated Board members who
manned the pump house daily until we could install an automated solution.
Great job everyone!
Sheryl
Bishop, President
P.S.
Remember to check your filters regularly - although the filtration system
is working, sediment can still build up on the individual sprinkler filters,
which can lead to low pressure at the sprinkler heads.
Bringing
Well Pump Online - Status Update The
Board approved Caron Pump Co. to install a VFD (variable frequency drive) Pump
Control Panel to run the well system. The VFD is programmed to compensate the
main system whenever the flow of water coming into the cistern, from the
irrigation ditch is lower than needed, allowing the main system to continue running
at 100% or 65 PSI. Note: The well pump system is not designed to service the
entire subdivision on its own - the well can only augment the main system,
it cannot replace the main system.
Irrigation
Shut-off Date Settlers
Irrigation District tentative shut-off date will be September, 2, 2013. This
projected shut-off date is based on current data and is subject to change due
to reservoir levels, river flows, and evaporation loss. Pub. Aug. 3,10, 2013. Please be advised the subdivision pump systems (both
irrigation and well systems) will be taken offline when the irrigation water is
turned off. Source Link: LEGAL NOTICE WATER SHUT OFF SETTLERS IRRIGATION (Link provided by Jan Sylvester
- thanks Jan!)
Community
Volunteer Assistance
After September 2nd, there may be a need to help some of our neighbors who are
not able to move hoses and sprinklers on their own to keep their landscaping
green and healthy. If you need help, or you know of someone who may need
help, or if you would like to volunteer to help, please contact the HOA
Board directly via email: summerfieldsubhoa@gmail.com
or contact Trish Callies at Complete Property Management via email: callies@mindspring.com or phone
208.387.0004 to make arrangements regarding community volunteer
assistance.
Make
a Hole! Let's
clear the decks for our neighbors and friends who walk with their dogs and
children, so they don't have to walk in the street to get around tree
branches and shrubs. If you have tree branches, shrubs or other landscape
materials that block the sidewalk, take a few minutes to assess, and trim back
the growth - this is first and foremost a safety issue but secondarily it is
can be an issue of lower property value perceived by potential home buyers as
well. Thanks for helping to keep Summerfield an awesome community we can all
appreciate!
