Winter ROAD CONDITIONS: Packed snow, ice. |
STORM DEBRIS DISPOSAL
The recent heavy snow fall has resulted in thousands of tree branches broken off and scattered across our properties. The LITCPOA has established two drop off locations for you to dispose of your storm debris.
The first is on the LITC East Side common area and the second is beside the tennis court at LITC West Side.
Look for the already forming piles of debris and, as neatly as possible, add yours to the stack.
THANK YOU!
Our LITC "Road Crew" is comprised of Ron Ferrara, Rich Everett, Jerry Benincasa, Bob Freudenberg, Dino Catozzo, Mike McGongile, and Charlie Schaffer. These wonderful folks have contributed over 90 man hours of work to date clearing our roads and common areas of storm debris. Work will continue for another week. If anyone else would like to help please call Charlie Schaffer at 676-4561 to find out the next scheduled work day.

Notices |
The President of Lake Jamie Property Owners Association has written to alert us they have begun work to construct their dam at Lake Jamie. The work is planned to continue to November 25th. We are requested to respect the posted area, and not enter the construction zone, so we remain safe and don't compromise their agreements surrounding the work.
Dam Safety Inspection
Pennsylvania DEP has inspected our dam three times this summer, monitoring the progress of the dam leak repair. Their last inspection report of 7/30/08 stated "All work appears completed IAW approved plans and specifications. This is the final inspection of the work authorized by the Letter of Authorization dated May 7, 2007". Additionally, in their interim report of 7/16/08, the inspector states "Overall, the dam is in good condition. The owner is commended on their high level of maintenance. The Department thanks the Association for completing the on going repair work at the dam."
CULVERT & DRAINAGE CLEANOUT
All property owners are responsible for keeping drainage ditches
and culverts on or bordering your property cleaned out and free
of leaves and debris. When water cannot run freely it backs up
and erodes our roads increasing our community maintenance costs. PLEASE!
Once in the Fall after the leaves are down and once in the Spring
before the heavy rains - take the time to clean out all your drainage
areas.

Newsletter to Accept Limited Advertising
The Lake in the Clouds Board discussed advertising at the November meeting and agreed to allow a small amount of advertising in our quarterly newsletter. Approximately six to eight business card sized ads may be inserted into the newsletter (as space allows). We will charge $50 per business card size ad per issue. Community members who wish to advertise should email Stacey Guthrie before all the space is committed.
LITCPOA Approval is REQUIRED for all new construction,
 lot
improvements or alterations, grading, sewage system, water system,
fences, and tree removal or logging. A newly developed LITCPOA Approval
Certificate is to be posted wherever these changes are occuring. Anyone
noting such changes where the Approval Certificate is not clearly
displayed should call the LITCPOA Office or the LITCPOA Building Chairperson,
Ron Ferrara as soon as possible.

Highlights |
Welcoming Committee Formed
The LITC Welcoming Committee was formed in January of 2008 . Members of the committee are Janine Everett, Linda Foran and Bonnie Welch. The committee contacts new, permanent families who have moved into our community since January 2008. A Welcome Basket is given to each new family. Our very first was presented to Anita Catozzo at the July LOL luncheon. If there is a new, permanent family who has moved into your neighborhood since January 2008 please contact our committee at 676-5793.
Library Corner
Anytime is a great time to sit
back and enjoy reading a good book. I hope everyone is taking advantage
of the variety
to be found in our clubhouse Library Corner.
Unfortunately space is limited.
We would be glad to recycle a few good books at a time if they are current
and in excellent condition, but PLEASE DO NOT drop off boxes of books at the
clubhouse.
Thank you, Sue Ferrara
