From October 27- Nov 25 we will be working on repairing and relining some of the pipes. We are working hard to limit disruption. There will be pipes running on top of the ground in the courtyard. They may be over walkways so please be careful when walking. There will also be heavy machinery as well as a pump truck so we will have construction noise during this project.

May - October is Turtle nesting season. There are Amber lights throughout the community.
