Results from the Survey

We had 36 responses from the survey that was sent out a little less than a month ago, below is a summary of the responses:

 

  1. Comments about the new planters around the pools – Most responses were positive and liked the attractive addition to the pools
  2. Response to the question of labeling our area, similar to LaVonne – Most felt that it would be a waste of money and perhaps be divisive
  3. To the Question about the resurfacing of the pool at Boones Bend and Winchester – Many people had not had a chance yet to go to the pool and evaluate the improvement.  Some felt it might be best to wait to see how this resurfacing holds up before doing the rest of the pools
  4. The responses about the practice green (Murphy’s green) next to Green on Red nine were very positive, with many looking forward to using this area again.  However, the report from the board meeting was that the seeding of this area did not work.  Next step “plugging” in September – so stay tuned
  5. Finally what type of information do you want to see on Website Post:
    • Information about Rec Hall C – we are looking at some updates to this building soon, I will be posting pictures and descriptions soon
    • Budget Summaries -Will work with our Treasurer and see what we can put together
    • Minutes – Highlights from board meetings, especially decision that affect expenditures, Questionnaires on upcoming decisions before the decision is made, updates on Disaster Preparedness –  Minutes are posted on the website one month after their approval.  So if you look under minutes you will see July’s minutes.  I do understand your request for highlights and will try to address some of important information in some future post. Link to the Minutes
    • More Surveys – Your response was very helpful, so look forward to more surveys in the future
    • On-line recommendations of contractors – Unfortunately as part of the Board, we cannot recommend contractors.  But if you find someone that you would like to recommend.  You can post in the comments your recommendations

      What’s happening in Charbonneau – Crime waves, I believe that this information comes first from the Country club as they receive reports from security patrols

      Pertinent information = When does trimming start, spraying, weeding, anything that affects homeowners.  Response from Landscaping that all areas are different and changes are made all the time.

      Break down of the homeowners insurance – so can see big picture – Our policy is on-line at the information directory – We are checking with Jay to see if he can put something together.  Link to Information Directory and Insurance Policy

      Work behind the houses on Miley – Unbelievable improvement – I will be posting pictures soon.

      Finally there was a suggestion that we have an Orientation for new & old residents explaining landscaping – what do the gardeners maintain outside of gates, sprinklers and water systems, e.g. Flushing schedules. 2. Noise abatement on weekends, e.g. Blowers in early am.  This sounds like a great committee project.  Please let me know if there is anyone who would like to help plan and put together a presentation welcome new residents to our community.

    Appreciate the survey report, thanks!

    Two issues for committee agenda:
    1. Walking on French Prairie. While speeding has been reduced due to signage, multiple use of our 4 lane highway through CCC needs attention. Like other planned communities, why not share the right side of French Prairie with walkers, bikers, runners, baby carriages and golf carts? Having a two lane roadway instead of four (4) lanes would provide more safety for all involved…..and reduce speeding. Which committee would address this issue; how can one address the committee?

    2. Restricted walking on the Golf Course, BEFORE the course opens and AFTER the course closes. This is still a contentious issue for many of us living in Charbonneau. I have called other courses and get the understandably response that “Walking on the course is not allowed.” But when asked do home owners walk on the course before and after the Golf Shop is open, the response is more amenable. How do we address the Golf Association?

    Thanks, Gordon & Mary Ann Dickey

      Thanks for your comments

      The best way to address the French Prairie traffic is the Country Club or the City of Wilsonville. You could also write a letter to the editor of the Villager ( Cindy Phillips) because I am sure there others in Charbonneau that feel the same as you do.

      Walking on the golf course after hours should be addressed to Dale Owens president of the golf club board.
