Homeowner Concerns:
There was an issue brought up to George before the meeting about storm drains along Petrovitsky. The home owner had been calling the County to clean the drain. The last time she was told it was the HOA’s responsibility. We did not feel that the HOA was responsible but that it should be either the County or the H.O. George will look into the issue.
