Potential Greeenwater Area Forest Road Changes

The National Forest Service (NFS) is closing public comment for the Greenwater Access and Travel Management project: http://www.fs.usda.gov/project/?project=47991 soon.

This project would decide which forest roads to retain and at what maintenance levels, and which roads are no longer needed. The project would describe treatments needed to minimize impacts to other resources and comply with laws and Forest Plan direction.

Public feedback on this project needs to be emailed by Nov 20, 2015 to: comments-pacificnorthwest-mtbaker-snoqualmie-snoqualmie@fs.fed.us

Burn Ban – very dry out there

There is an outdoor fire ban in place for our area due to the dry conditions. See more details here: http://www.co.pierce.wa.us/index.aspx?NID=980

 

Please do not use fireworks in these dry conditions. Using fireworks while there is an outdoor burn ban is an irresponsible thing to do. Fireworks could easily spark a forest fire that could not only take trees, but also could take your neighbor’s house. More details on fireworks use here:

Getting exited for the long July 4th weekend. USA!  USA! USA!!!

 

Thanks all,

Encroachment Motion for CVII Lot 11.

There has long been an encroachment on the CVHA common area by CVII Lot 11. The CVHA Board had filed a notice of encroachment with Pierce County. Now that the home has a prospective buyer, there is a driving force to see if the encroachment issue can be resolved.

We will leave this open for homeowner comment for 3 days. After the comment period, the Board will vote on the motion.

Comments are welcome directly here on the blog or via email: cvhapres@gmail.com.

There is an official survey and a picture of the area attached. “Tract A” is a common area.

Proposed Resolution:
We agree that the CVHA Board will accept the line that CVHA put in as an approximation of the property line, but the property line shown on the survey (dated 9/10/2007), done by Larson will be considered accurate.

The fence, hot tub. electrical, plumbing must be removed from the Common Area. The roof structure and hot tub cement pad may remain and be donated, in writing, to CVHA and will become CVHA property.

CVHA will remove the encumbrance filed with Pierce County, after the aforementioned actions are taken.
