ENPOA board revises snow plowing policy

Good news, Eagle Nest residents. The neighborhood has a new snow plowing policy! What’s new: First the first time in years, cul-de-sacs will be included for plowing along with the main streets when snow totals reach 3 inches or more. In the past, residents in the courts had to wait until higher accumulations before they got their streets cleared. The addition of 17 cul-de-sacs to the plowing contract will require more contractor time and expense, of course, so the courts will be approached a little differently. Plows will be instructed to make two passes through the courts, essentially plowing the equivalent of two lanes around the perimeter of the cul-de-sac. Some snow may be pushed into the center (low enough so as not to impede visibility), with the remainder pushed into yards with the most open space or straight out through the main thoroughfares. The board also will review its salting protocols to ensure the exits and neighborhood bus stops are addressed more frequently. W...

A word about trash pickup days ...

Sometimes, in the rush to making the neighbohood pickups, the city trash collector will accidentally spill a piece of garbage (or two) or leave trash containers strewn about in the street. Sure, he could be careful, but accidents happen. In an effort to keep our neighborhood clean and well-kept, do your neighbors a favor: Take a moment and pick up any loose, stray garbage and dispose of it properly. And if you see someone's garbage can rolling into the street or their can lids blowing about, recover them and return to the owner's property. Such random acts of kindness will help continue to keep our neighborhood one of the most respected and desirable places to live. Your Eagle Nest Board thanks you ....
