Fresh Millings Opportunity
Dear Neighbors,
As most of you know, Lime Kiln road is being repaved in the next couple weeks. We have begun discussions with the project managers and contractors to coordinate receiving the millings from this project. We do not have a lot of details at this time, but we may have the opportunity to receive a very large amount of millings for the neighborhood at a very low cost.
We have a very urgent need for locations where we can store millings for future use along the road or on the spurs. This will allow great savings for future road work as materials will already be onsite. We would fully expect neighbors that allow millings to be stored on their property to be able to freely use the millings for their own driveways and spurs. We would like to thank Mr. Reynolds, the Adams, and the Burgers for graciously offering up parts of their property for us to store millings. However, we are still looking for more locations along the length of Goose Creek Lane so that we have a nice distribution of storage locations. If you have a spot we can store even just one load, please let us know and one of us will meet with you to ensure millings are stored exactly where you want them!
Along with storing millings from this project, our intention is to put down a fresh layer of millings throughout the entire length of Goose Creek Lane. The millings should be tailgated then spread and packed by our contractor, AW Smith. Our hope is that the millings will be free and if so, once Goose Creek Lane is fully loaded with fresh millings, we will be happy to direct the trucks to all the spurs. However, due to our limited funds, we won’t be able to cover costs associated with spreading and packing millings on spurs. The trucks will also only be able to work in areas where they have a safe place to turn around and may require a neighbor who lives on the spur to be available to direct them.
If you do NOT want free millings tailgated down your spur, please let us know immediately, otherwise we will assume everyone would like a fresh layer of millings on their spur.
Once we have received additional information from the VDOT contractors we will send out another quick announcement.
Dues Voting
As a reminder we sent out details about 2020 proposed road dues in the last newsletter. We have only received about 8 votes at this time. You are always welcome to email us your vote and comments.
Neighborhood Business Listing
Several neighbors have asked about compiling a list of business and services that our neighbors provide. To help facilitate this we would like to offer any neighbor that is current on road dues the opportunity to have their business/services listed on the website. To give you an example of what the listing may look like, we went ahead and put up the page so you can see what information to provide for the listing. You can view the current listing here: https://goosecreekfarms.xyz/about/neighborhood-businesses/
If you would like your business/service listed, please send us an email with your business/service name, a sentence about what service is provided, website link, and phone number.
Road Dues Ledger
We didn’t include the ledger in the last newsletter (it was amended to the website post later). But we have included the current ledger for your review here as well. Because we posted the list of contributing neighbors already this month, we will not re-post that in this newsletter. You can view it on the last newsletter post here.
