Bridge Improvements

Last year the Landscape Committee worked with Dan Steuernagel to develop plans completing the landscaping around Victor Gardens' Everton Ave. Bridge.  The design was approved and work was completed at the end of the summer.  We're looking forward to seeing the plants coming back to life next spring.

This winter, the Landscape Committee started the process again, speaking with Dan about similar plans to complete landscaping on the Val Jean Blvd. Bridge.

New Electrical Service to Common Areas

The Master Board approved bringing new electrical service to four currently unserved Common Areas within the Victor Gardens Community Association: 
  1. The main entrance median at Victor Hugo Blvd. and Frenchman Road. This electrical service will be used to power future holiday lighting within that median area, trees and wooden arbor structure. It would also enable a future Victor Gardens monument sign to be illuminated at night.
  2. The entrance at Everton Ave. and Frenchman Road. This electrical service will be used to power future holiday lighting within that median area and trees.
  3. Grantaire Green. Allowing holiday lighting in this area.
  4. Dahlia Green. Allowing holiday lighting in this area.
When the spring thaw arrives, work will begin.

Sledding in Hugo

If the weather warms up a little over the weekend, check out Hugo's Oak Shore Park. There's a great sledding hill there and it's close to home!
