We’re sorry the pool has taken so long to open this year, but it is now cleaned, repaired, filled, and safe to swim in! The spa is also up to heat.
We also have a new pool company doing regular service, so we hope things stay in better shape than previous years. Please contact us if you experience any issues.
Happy 4th of July!
Congratulations to Barbara, Mary, and Satya on being elected to another term on the the Board!
The Board has begun using a new online system for help requests. This will let us keep better track of requests that come in and make sure they are addressed in a timely fashion. This system also lets you check on the status of your request at any time, and makes sure that you get an email when we address your request.
You can file a request at https://caminodelprado.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new or simply send an email to help@caminodelprado.org. Please attach a picture when possible.
People looking to call in help requests or emergency requests should still do so – see the Contact page for details.
You may have noticed that many areas of our lawns/plants have not been getting any water for a while now. We are actively working with our irrigation service provider to find the proper root cause and perform the needed repair. There was an assumption that this may have been caused by our light/bollard repair/trenching, however further in-depth inspection by the contractor who performed light/bollard repair has shown no wire cut or side effect due to electrical connection between the timer B and all the sprinkler valves between bryant way and castleton terrace.
In order to mitigate the issue, we had done a one-time manual turn-on/off of all valves around the complex and watered our lawns for a couple of hours this week.
Investigation is still going on and we hope to reach a conclusion sometime next week.
As always, thank you for your patience.
Many of you have been asking about the situation vis-a-vis our pool. We have unfortunately been facing many back to back issues over the past 6+ months with the machine room, pumps, broken and leaky valves, damaged walls, issue with our vendors to name a few. It has really been a roller coaster.
Opening up of our pool is now imminent. We’ve done some patch repair on the bottom of the pool and it is now filling up with water. It may take a few days to fill up and get the chemicals balanced but we are almost there.
Thank you for your patience.
Rewiring of bollards and garage lights across the Camino Del Prado complex is now complete. We should not be seeing any systemic light issues anymore other than individual bulb or driver burning out.
Thank you for your patience during the construction and digging around the complex.
As you may already know, we’ve had some challenges with our former pool vendor. We are actively working on getting the pool cleaned and set for the summer. Please hang on with us as we are working to find a new contractor that will help us restore and maintain the pool going forward.
Regarding the electrical wiring of bollards and garage lights, work have started on the last section of our HOA, namely the following units: 1007-A/E, 1007-F/K Bryant and 1339-A/E Henderson. Garage lights and bollards around those sections will be rewired. The work is expected to be completed by May 24th. Power to the bollards and garage lights will be off during that period.
Access to garages in the impacted units will be required to complete the rewiring work. Notes have been left on various gates and mailboxes.
Thanks for your patience.
It’s been long overdue, but the clubhouse kitchen has now been restored. The kitchen floor and walls had been redone to match the clubhouse main room. It looks pretty good! Let’s keep it that way!
Several pool pumps in the machine room have been replaced with brand new ones. However,the pool needs to be cleaned before it can be used. We are working on coordinating the pool cleaning. Once that is done, we will turn on the pool.
There was recently a fire in one of the homes in our community. The fire started in the wall around the chimney while the fireplace was in use. Even though the fire in the fireplace was out, the fire continued inside the wall. Luckily no one was hurt and the fire was quickly contained.
The Board is currently evaluating the cause of the fire to determine if preventative measures need to be taken to prevent further fires. In the interim, we would like to remind everyone that it is each unit owners responsibility to maintain their fireplace, firebox, and flue. We recommend getting an annual cleaning and inspection of your fireplace fireboxes and flues, and dryer exhausts. And please make sure your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors have fresh batteries. Wired smoke detectors are also a good idea.
1- The lighting repair/rewiring work around 1360 G-K Roadrunner, 1035 A-D Castleton, and 1035 E-H Castleton have been completed. The last remaining areas are around 1007 Bryant and 1339 Henderson. These are the last blocks.
2- Also note that the clubhouse kitchen work and machine room pump is still going on and may require temporary electricity cut off after new year.
3- The fence work in the back of 1005-B-C-D-E will be started in the new year.
Thank you for your patience and Happy Holidays.
