Sealcoating Completed
The sealcoating is finished, and not a moment too soon. I guess the board – and the contractors – deserve a break for getting the job done before the rain.
The image shows those fugly lines being repainted in my court. I don’t know about you, but I really hate those lines. I hate them almost as much as I hate the No Parking signs. Both do much to disturb the beauty of our community.
The story I heard was that the Township was fielding Riverbend resident complaints about parking, both on Riverbend Drive and on Community property. After a while they tired of the complaints and decided to retaliate. Claiming that the Community was inaccessible to emergency traffic, they erected the ugly signs and made us paint the lines, and finished by threatening to step up enforcement of the parking ordinances.
Now I’m not certain whether or not the story’s true, but it sure seems plausible to me.
Remind me to tell you the story I’ve heard concerning why we have a trash pickup on Monday.

September 4 Board Notice

Uh Oh – Board Drops the Ball!
It’s come to my attention that the Board’s recent (September 4th) notice entitled “Urgent Sealcoating” contained bad information! The work actually began today, September 22, rather than September 23 as written.
Does that mean that all the work is off by one day? Your guess is as good as mine! I hope no one got towed!
Correction: Board Candidate Resume Requests
Dear Homeowners:
We recently sent you notice that at the upcoming election in November, one (1) board seat was up for election. Please note that the notice was incorrect and we want to make you aware that there are two (2) positions up for election this year. Those seats are currently being held by Ken Bierstein and Toni D’Angelo.
If you are interested in volunteering for the community, please complete the resume form that was mailed to you last week and forward it to the Management Office by October 3, 2008.
We look forward to receiving your resumes which will be mailed out for vote in the next thirty (30) days.
Very truly yours,

September Site News
There was a period of instability ths morning – about ten minutes worth – while I upgraded to the latest version of WordPress.
Yesterday’s mail brought an announcement from the Board. When I come in off the deck – I’m watching for the hurricane – I’ll scan it and add it to the site. Well, what do you know – I think I feel a few drops of rain…
Urgent Sealcoating
Dear Riverbend Homeowners:
Please be advised that the sealcoating in your court will begin on:
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2008, (weather permitting).
All vehicles that you will be using during the day MUST BE MOVED out of your garage by 7:00 A.M. ALL vehicles parked in the parking spaces in your court must also be moved by 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning, September 23, 2008.
No driving or parking of vehicles will be allowed in the courts while this work is being done. Cars will be permitted to return when barriers are removed indicating that the project is complete. This is anticipated to be three days later.
FAILURE TO COMPLY, will result in vehicles being towed at the owner’s expense. The Association will not be held responsible for any liability or damage to vehicles. Unfortunately, we cannot hold up the road sealcoating project for unmoved vehicles.
Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
Very truly yours,
Board of Trustees
Riverbend Townhouse Owners Association
