The current board has been very busy since electing officers in June. Some of the highlights include:
The board discussed several areas of improvement at the pool which had been previously identified or newly identified. These included having the roof checked for damage after recent storms, getting estimates on some general handyman work, new pool chairs for the 2025 season and general cosmetic improvements to the pool and pool area including the bathrooms.
The board reviewed previously identified areas of concern including repair and refurbishment of the wood fence along 111th on the east end of the neighborhood, removing and leveling the buildup of soil and grass along the brick fence, and touch up/cleaning of entrance signs and the guard house. These items were identified by previous boards/meetings but were delayed due to lack of funds and collection of dues in a timely manner. Some of the work has already been completed such as cleaning the entrance signs, repairing the east-end fence and other misc. items, while other work is currently underway.
The City of Bixby has awarded the expansion project of 111th to Diversified Civil and they expect the project to begin in the next few weeks. This will widen 111th from Memorial to S. 83rd St E. Ave. If the north side of the road is impacted, with the city's oversight, we will work with them to replace any fencing that is removed (at the contractor's cost) and make sure our neighborhood (which includes the retention area) is not negatively impacted.
Some improper dumping of tree limbs and debri by homes adjacent to our retention area (West side) have been addressed by the City of Bixby to help ensure our property is maintained properly.
Due to warm weather the pool was kept open a record three additional weeks this year! We hope you were able to take advantage!
