Board Update May 2025: Pool fob details, dues reminder, 2024 homes sales prices, Board election reminder, 82nd St. closure

Image
Pool opening, fob activation on target for May 25 Hard to believe with the recent cooler temperatures that our Pool is scheduled to open in less than three weeks! But when we do, Pool Manager Samantha Burns reports we should be at full staff! That means our fantastic facility will be open daily from noon to 8 p.m. through most of August! Now would be a good time to locate your Pool security access fob so you have it ready on opening day. Keep in mind, your fob will only work if your annual dues have been paid (and no you can’t pay the same day and expect to get in, as it takes a few days to process.) If you’re new to Eagle Nest since last September, please contact Board Vice President Jason Van Meter at jpvanmeter@sbcglobal.net to make arrangements to secure your fob. (Sorry, one fob per lot.) If you lost your fob, lot owners will need to pay a replacement/programming fee. Note: If you leave your blue Republic garbage cart or boat or trailer out for all to see, be forewarned that your...

Our Hague Road entrance potholes have been filled! Read on to see how it happened

Image
Simply put, thank you, Eagle Nest. More than two dozen residents answered our callout to go online and report the multiple growing potholes at our Hague Road entrance. And in less than a week, the potholes were filled, as well as others along Tanager Lane all the way to our four-way stop! Such an organized response helped push things along, but huge thanks also goes City Councilors Nick Roberts (District 3) and Dan Boots (District 4) for their help in escalating our campaign. At a recent BRAG meeting, they were told our entrance was on the verge of becoming impassable without city intervention. In response, both underscored the importance of filing reports on the city’s website so the volume of requests can be tracked. The more reports filed, the higher priority they get in city repair schedules, they said. This time it worked, but DPW is overwhelmed and underfunded so we can’t expect such a quick response every time. That's why we appreciate the councilors for lobbying on our beh...

Report our Hague Road entrance potholes, and you could win a gift card!

Image
Do you want to win a $25 gift card? Would you like the dangerous potholes at our Hague Road entrance to be filled? The Eagle Nest Board has a deal for you: Simply report the potholes at 7701 Tanager Lane to the Mayor’s Action Center website and we’ll enter you into a gift card drawing at the end of May. It literally only takes 2-3 minutes to do and is super simple by clicking through a series of radio buttons. According to our City Councilor Nick Roberts (District 4), the more reports the city receives about a specific pothole location, the higher the priority to get fixed. At present, our high-traffic Hague entrance is at risk of becoming impassable, so we need your help to get our underfunded, overwhelmed Department of Public Works to pay attention to us. What you need to do: 1. Copy and paste this direct link into a browser: https://imc-gov.my.site.com/citizen/request/STRTREPR/location 2. Fill out the online repair form, starting with the address 7701 Tanager Lane. 3. Sele...

House warming April 26 for Tanager Court home burned in 2022 fire

Image
Imagine just two weeks before Christmas, a fire completely guts your home and all virtually everything inside. That’s what happened in 2023 to the Ramirez family at 8104 Tanager Court (above left). Thankfully, no one suffered serious injuries, which is remarkable given several children had to jump out of second-story windows into the arms of family members below. In the weeks that followed that tragic event, Eagle Nest residents raised more than $4,000 through a Go Fund Me page to help the family buy food, necessities and temporary housing. The family has since rebuilt the home (top right) – even expanded it – and moved back in this month. Now the family would like to formally thank neighbors for all their support during such a difficult time: Residents are invited to a house-warming gathering from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, April 26, at 8104 Tanager Ct. Stop by, introduce yourself and meet the family that endured so much and thought so highly of our development they couldn’t wait to ...

Despite soggy weather, dozens turn out for annual Easter Egg Hunt

Image
Happy Easter, Eagle Nest residents! Just a few pics from Saturday’s annual Easter Egg Hunt at the Clubhouse. Nearly 50 kids and parents enjoyed a well-timed break in the rain to clear the Clubhouse lawn of 200+ candy-filled plastic eggs within mere minutes! Thanks to Social Co-chairs Sarah Craney and Marcella Kates and Clubhouse Manager Kelly Dentler for organizing the event. Several residents commented that it was a great break and welcome distraction from the severe overnight storms that knocked out power for most of the neighborhood several hours Saturday morning. What’s next on the social calendar? Our Pool opening Memorial Day weekend! Watch the Eagle Nest blog and our Facebook page for more information in the weeks ahead, including fob access, hours of operation and opening day activities.

The Easter Egg Hunt is on! See you at 2 p.m.!

Image
The Easter Egg Hunt is on! See you at 2 p.m.! .................................... Check back at 1:30 p.m. today (April 19) to see if our annual Easter Egg Hunt will go on as planned at 2 p.m. outside the Clubhouse. At this time, the Social Committee is looking to move the egg hunt to the flat lawn next to the front parking lot, as the hill by the playground is too wet and mushy for a safe event. Sure, the eggs will be in plain view, but we have to do something with the hundreds of candy-filled plastic eggs we prepared. As previously mentioned, we'll let the toddlers go first, then after two minutes the yard will open up to the older kids. The eggs will go fast, so don't be late (assuming the event goes on, as scheduled). Not your traditional Easter event, we know, but maybe the kids will be ready for a fun distraction after the overnight storms and early morning neighborhood power failure. Remember -- check the blog and our Facebook page at 1:30 p.m.! Happy Easter!
