LAIICDD NEWS BY MAR Y BOSMAN, LAIICDD COMMUNIT Y DIREC T OR photo: Dennis Krupinski Projects seem to be an ever-going process, but staff is taking on some outdoor projects that are best completed before the heat of summer comes upon us. The Porte-cochere project is complete and came in on budget and ahead of time! The new ceiling is capable of being power washed and it’s structurally more sound than before the work was done. The finials on the fencing on HWY. 653 are painted and the black posts are being painted. The pool coping has been replaced due to cracking from excess weight demands. The ladder was moved, and weight limit signs were put up to prevent further cracking. A spa heater was replaced from a recent lightning hit. Two wireless Internet access points needed to be replaced from the same lightning hit as well. A security camera was moved from the HFC kitchen area to the Rose Garden. Phase IV COVID procedure is out so we are enjoying a somewhat less restrictive environment these days. Our two temporary staff positions ended on April 14th. Marina and Evelyn did a great job and they were a great asset to Lake Ashton II CDD. The Board member in charge of liaison with the two dog parks belonging to LA II CDD is now Duff Hill. Colette was doing a great job but she chose to focus on her other very time consuming areas of responsibility. Duff will do a great job in this new role.
