One of the challenges of owning a home is the responsibility for
maintaining it, often by finding good contractors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And one of the nice things about living in a
cluster of similar homes is that we can often benefit from the wisdom and
experience of our neighbors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With that
in mind, the cluster has decided to publish on our website lists of recommended
contractors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The list will generally reflect
contractors used by cluster members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0mm;">
The first list is in the Documents section of the website under

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: "tahoma" , "sans-serif";">American
Disposal Services, our trash collection contractor, has given us early
notification of an upcoming change taking effect March 1, 2017 regarding the
collection process for yard waste removal. Material placed in plastic bags will
be rejected at the local yard waste composting facilities. ADC has been
informed that plastic bags of any kind require additional processing and render
the finished compost less attractive. Therefore ADC is modifying its current
collection policy to avoid additional costs that would be necessary if we accept
material in plastic bags. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: "tahoma" , "sans-serif";">ADC will
accept yard Waste material in compostable paper yard waste bags or personal containers
clearly marked “Yard Debris Material”. These paper yard waste bags can be found
at local grocery stores, hardware stores, and through on-line retailers.
Beginning March 1, 2017, ADC will no longer be accepting yard waste material in
plastic bags.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: "tahoma" , "sans-serif";">We will
remind you of this change as we get closer to the effective date but wanted to
give you a heads up now. For more
information, please see ADC’s notice in the Documents tab, ADS's website at <a href="https://www.americandisposal.com/blog/focus-on-yard-waste">https://www.americandisposal.com/blog/focus-on-yard-waste</a> and Fairfax County’s website at <a href="http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dpwes/recycling/yardwaste.htm">http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dpwes/recycling/yardwaste.htm</a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Spring is here and so are the Carpenter Bees. Van Foster has kindly recommended a solution that he has found to be effective for managing these pests, found at <a href="http://www.e-bug.net" target="_blank">http://www.e-bug.net</a> The kits sold on this website contain a Drione dust to insert into the bee holes to treat the nests and an insecticide for spraying the fence to prevent future holes from being created. Also, corks are included for plugging the old holes.<br/><br/>More information on Carpenter Bees can be found on Wikipedia <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpenter_bee">here</a>.Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02478155674748094128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2136858816114751964.post-26573392630828290142012-03-12T16:38:00.000-04:002016-05-30T16:08:41.873-04:00Lintel & Facade Power Washing & Painting/SealingHi Folks,<br/><br/>Some of the Lake Anne Condo staff, working on their own time, have been helping WPCA homeowners bring their facades/lintels up to standard by power washing and painting/sealing the surfaces with the approved standard color.<br/><br/>Several people have already expressed interest, and a few homeowners have already had work done and report that they are happy with their work!<br/><br/>Anyone who is interested can contact Mr. Ken Greenway, 703-932-0205, to schedule such work if they are interested.<br/><br/>Please note that WPCA is not responsible for the work, nor is the Lake Anne Condo Association.
