Maintenance Update: Snow Removal

Over the last few weeks I received questions about lack of snow removal services in some parts of the neighborhood.  I passed those questions along to Gina Lampe, and she was able to follow up. She’s also forwarded the relevant details of the contract which you can see listed below. A map of the service area can be found on the Maps page.

To simplify the process of checking AC Land’s work, I’ve volunteered to help verify that the work is being completed as contracted.  If residents see something isn’t done according to the contract (below), please email me, and I’ll follow up.
