Greg,
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. If this is the wall behind 175 Georgian Drive, I have already
spoken with the home owner, and initiated the process of verifying the damage. City staff, as well as the
contractor, took still and video images of all the private and HOA owned infrastructure adjacent to the
project for this very reason. If we can document to the contractor that this was not pre-existing damage,
then they will be held responsible for making the appropriate repairs.
As far as timing of the repairs goes, that may present some challenges. If the contractor is responsible
for the damage, and it is unstable, and either presents a safety hazard, or is at risk of increased damage
due to not taking timely action, then they may move quicker to make the repairs. If the damage is
cosmetic in nature, and there is risk that they may cause additional damage during the remaining project,
they may choose to put the repair off until more of the work is complete.
Give us a little time to investigate the damage and discuss it with the contractor. Once we determine if
the contractor is responsible, then I can write a letter to that effect and provide it to you and the
homeowner to help comfort the prospective buyer.
I'll plan to get back with you by the end of the week. Feel free to call with any questions, or if you wish
to meet on site to look at the damage.
Thanks.

Keith,
I has come to the attention of the HOA that during the recent construction along Sandy Lake that
our screening wall has become compromised. We recognize that this is not out of the ordinary
during these types of construction projects, but, wanted to inquire as to the plan to repair this
type of damage as it occurs.

The house where the damage to the wall is most noticeable is currently under contract for
sale. Is there something that you could provide the HOA and the homeowner that would give the
prospective buyer comfort that the wall will be repaired properly?
Thanks for the help.
Greg
