hot news fresh from the gate house WANTED!!
Property owners to serve on CLV committees. The Board is pleading for owners to step up and get their feet wet by serving on a Committee. A special request this month is for additional volunteers to serve on the Rules & Regulations Committee. Susan Loucka, the Chairperson, says this committee is one that values "common sense" ideas in regards to Village issues. What a fantastic means to obtain a free education as to how your association governs the use of property in the Village.

BACK GATE
Owners may now use your gate cards at the rear gate. Please contact the Christmas Lake office if you encounter any problems.

Chipping Completed

It's fall and the Maintenance staff has officially closed "chipping" season at Christmas Lake Village for the property owners' brush in 2011.
Dan Lautner, the Head of CLV Maintenance, reported that the only "glitch" in his plans was that his crew preferred the piles to be shorter and spread out over a longer stretch of the owner's road frontage. He preferred longer branches as opposed to shorter. Always leave an 8' long branch in lieu of cutting the branch in half. Amazingly, they can chip branches up to 6" in diameter.
"The chipping service is a process, meaning that the crew, with the chipping machine in tow, travels the streets of Christmas Lake Village in search of neatly stacked piles of tree branches. This was done over a 2 week time period, and they visited each subdivision twice.

Next year, the service will once again begin in the middle of October.
