Lakeview Terrace AssociationLVTA information and discussion

Oct 9th Greetings, Lakeview Terrace Residents

The weather may have discouraged our board members and residents, from attending our monthly, summer meeting, on September 11th, at 6 PM.   I wish to report, the rain held off, long enough, for a meeting at the lake.  However, for the first time in a very long time, less than the required, four LVTA board members, were present.  A formal meeting could not take place.  Therefore, here is a brief report of our association's happenings, since our last meeting.    

Each LVTA board member, and the LVTA Tax Collector, has electronically received a copy of the LVTA Treasurer's Report for August. I ask each board member to carefully look over each report, and contact our treasurer if they have any questions.   

There are no urgent matters for the LVTA board to consider at this time.  

To the residents of our neighborhood:   THANK YOU for your prompt property tax payments, with the increased mil rate.  The LVTA board has done its best to keep the cost of maintaining our neighborhood lake frontage and park, to as low as possible.  All of us, you, me, own Lake Shore Drive, too, which we are obligated to maintain.  

It is the association's mandate to save money, in order to cover the costs involved with the repaving of Lake Shore Drive.  The road has now been patched, but that will only hold for an undetermined length of time.  All catch basins on Lake Shore Drive have been rebuilt, repaired, or accessed as in good condition; that's great.  The LVTA board will update the project's status at our annual meeting, in May.    

Our next official meeting of the Lakeview Terrace Association, will be our annual meeting, on May 5th, 2024, at 2 PM, to be held at our lakefront.    

LVTA News:  

Our Fall Cleanup is this Sunday, September 17th, at 10 AM.  The cleanup goes quickly, with help. Please feel free to volunteer for your neighborhood, and enjoy the view of Coventry Lake.  

If you would like to be part of our landscaping team, I encourage you to join us, this Sunday morning.  We will consider our Spring cleanup, which will require needed brush cutting, spraying and other improvements, along the entire beachfront.  We sure could use help with assessing what needs to be done.  With enough help, we can start the project, sometime this fall, or late Winter/early Spring.   

A Reminder:  Please remove your boat from the boat racks, at the beach, by October 15th.   We ask residents to remove their boats by October 15th, so our neighbors, who volunteer, can perform needed maintenance on the boat racks and surrounding areas.  Aesthetics are important to our neighbors, too, and is why removing your boat is a requirement each year. This matter was voted on and passed by the property owners in your neighborhood.  Thank you for your kind understanding and consideration for your neighbors.     

The Coventry Lake Water Skiing Club has informed me, they will be removing our swimming buoys and lines, on September 30th.  They will store the buoy equipment in our shed, at the park, as usual.  

Please, A BIG round of applause for your neighbors who volunteer their time and energy, which benefits everyone living at Lakeview Terrace.  Of course, we would not have a lakefront, or a park, without the taxes paid by property owners.  Thanks.      


Sincerely,
Bob Allison
President, LVTA
