Summary of Patrol
This was the second patrol of the 2020/2021 year. It took place the week of November 16. As is outlined below, 5 incidents were found during the patrol.
Weather seen at time of patrol
High winds were noted November 15th – 17th. The patrol took place after the high winds to check and review any damage in the community. Small branches were noted on many properties. We also had an accumulation of snow early in the week.
General comments
On Rosinke Drive, a lot of trees have fallen in the past year, which makes weaker trees more susceptible to wind damage. Many trees are already marked for removal.
On Walpole Trail, flooding on the road is going to be an issue if water levels or winds increase over the winter. Majority of homeowners are already aware, as this has been an issue over the past year.
Incidents
It should be noted that for every incident, the patrollers identify the issue as best they can, take pictures, contact the owners, and, if requested, sends photos to the owners. All of the information is kept/saved both by the patroller and by the Association.
