Speeders: Jackie Komives , Lot 521, mentioned that speeders are a real problem for her since
she lives down in one of the dips on Cherry Ridge and she cannot see the oncoming traffic. She
would like to see speed bumps installed but understands that this subject has discussed in the
past and is not an option. She asked that perhaps an article in the newsletter would bring this
problem to the attention of the homeowners. Jerry Carpenter said that he will contact Larry
Wiley about speed bumps.
Covers for Mailboxes on Eagle Creek Ranch Blvd: Gersey Lammers asked if there was a way to
cover the mailboxes on Eagle Creek Ranch Blvd as well as the others in the subdivision. Jerry
Carpenter pointed out that we have asked the post office about it and they will not/can not
cover the mailboxes. Jerry Carpenter said that the Board could take that as an action item to
check on cost and feasibility.
