Help sponsor projects to better our community

/in /by

Following years of repeated patchwork repairs, we are excited to announce that the clubhouse drain is being professionally fully repaired/replaced, with the new installation of PVC pipe replacing the corroded cast iron pipe from the exterior of the clubhouse and extending to the street service. This achievement is a direct result of the support from members of the Village Green Community Association and the kindness of Eddie Tison from Tison Properties (https://www.tisonproperties.com), who have enabled us to move forward with this project. The repair work, which will take place over the weekend, will provide a long-term solution to the ongoing drainage issues, reducing the need for future repairs.

As we look to the future, we have a pipeline of projects aimed at enhancing our community’s amenities. One upcoming initiative is the replacement of the deteriorated split rail fencing surrounding the access points to the rear recreation area. We invite individuals and businesses to consider sponsoring one of these projects, contributing to the betterment of our community. If you are interested in exploring sponsorship opportunities, please do not hesitate to reach out to the board ([email protected]). Your support will be instrumental in helping us achieve our goals to create a more enjoyable living environment for everyone.

Clubhouse main waste line replacement

Cast-iron pipe failure: Are plumbing claims draining you? (Part 2)

After many years of dealing the cast iron waste line for the clubhouse, we are getting it repaired/replaced on Saturday, June 28.  We will have a porta john on site for those using the clubhouse and pool that day.  I know since I took the pool over about 8 years ago, we have dealt with this far too many times and paid for a plumber to snake it too many times too.  This year alone, I have had to snake it 5 times with one of my sons.

You can see from the pic above how “flushable wipes” and feminine hygiene products can easily get caught on a corroded pipe.  This is why I have been asking for your help for several years now.

A combination of rust and roots is what we believe to be the problem, which is expected on such old pipes.  With the new PVC waste line going in, we should not have any issues from our clean out to the City side for many years.

Even with a new pipe consider that under the slab for the clubhouse is cast iron piping and that is not getting replaced.  Continue to help save our pipes.

If you are unable to help volunteer throughout the year, consider donating to the main waste line replacement project — contact Donnie at [email protected] or 757-768-9326 directly.
