Plowing update: Warmer weather means slushy streets, more cleanup possible

Residents should be aware that our plowing contractor is watching neighborhood conditions and may run his blade in certain areas to address ice ruts and slush buildup.

In other words, don't be surprised if you find a pile of snow at the food of your driveway when you wake up or get home from work in the next day or two. Such continuing treatments are necessary to ensure the overall safety in the neighborhood. We want to see dry pavement as soon as possible!

A handful of residents have complained about having to shovel multiple times since the storm hit, a fact that's simply unavoidable in some areas. Most residents, however, have been pleased with our crews' work and understand the challenges presented in plowing in such harsh conditions. If you've been out on Hague Road and other surrounding streets you know how well off we actually are.

Finally, as warmer weather and possible rain approach this weekend, ice jams likely will form around sewer drains. The Eagle Nest Board would appreciate residents' help in keeping these areas clear to avoid potential flooding problems.

As always, the Board appreciates your feedback and constructive criticism. Feel free to contact Clubhouse Manager Kelly Wright or Board President Scott Thien.to share your comments.

Thanks, stay warm and be safe.
