Old Orchard Fence Project
As many of you are aware, our common area cedar fencing along Old Orchard Drive and Old Oak Drive needs replacement, (this is the fencing that has the stone pillars at various intervals). The common area wrought iron fencing along FM 1464, Orchard Green, Barn Course, and the community pool either needs refurbishment or outright replacement. To address these issues your HOA Board is proposing upgrading the common area wood fencing to TrexR composite fencing. This fencing includes a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty (10 year for commercial), never needs painting or staining, and withstands hurricane force winds.
The iron fencing will be replaced with Ultra Aluminum along FM 1464, Orchard Green, and Barn Course. Iron fencing to be refurbished at the front entrance, emergency gate, and the pool. The Ultra Aluminum™ products are guaranteed for life against defects in workmanship and/or materials. The Powercoat™ finish is guaranteed for life against cracking, peeling, or chipping.
The fencing project represents a considerable expenditure of HOA funds. We are inviting homeowners to a presentation to explain the project on:
Tuesday, April 19, 6:30 PM at the Clubhouse.
After this Community meeting, the HOA Board plans to award the bid for the project at the Board Meeting on April 21, 6:30 pm at the Clubhouse.
Considerable time and research have gone into looking at the options to replace the common area fencing. As you all know we are encountering product and, labor shortages, and rising prices in almost every aspect of our lives these days. This presents challenges as we try to maintain our common area property. Fencing contractor bids are only good for 2 weeks, so timing is critical.
We encourage everyone to take the time to understand this project and we thank you for your efforts. Click here for the fencing project presentation. Click here to view the video that was shown in the fence project meeting.
