However, if you are still receiving this letter by regular mail and have not shared your e-mail with Treasurer Goings at sgo1010@aol.com, please do so soon. We are planning to make a number of individual contacts if we have not heard from you! Please take a look at the website https://www.edentonhoa.org .Meeting minutes are posted on the site for your convenience. Townhouse resident Donald Bossung has developed the site for us and we are most appreciative.

Commons area – A considerable amount of tree removal and trimming remains to be completed this fall. It is the intent to have the work done during November. As noted above, twenty-eight trees were planted adjacent to Old Cheney Road in early October. The trees were provided and planted by Plains Tree Farm, Inc. We greatly appreciated the planting assistance provided by board members and resident Terry Monk. Terry even brought his Arizona brother-in-law along and had him provide a great helping hand for the day. Fence construction should also be completed on the 600 foot area of the Commons prior to the November board meeting.
Irrigation system – The irrigation system will be drained in the coming weeks to prepare for winter. Several repairs were necessary during the month.
Lawn care – Daryl Swanson reported that lawns will be going into the winter season in excellent condition. Leaf pickup will be the major task during the next several weeks.
Halloween! Please be careful – remember all of the children that will be out in the neighborhood.
