Summertime - great time to go for a ride around the neighborhood in a golf cart! However, there must always be a licensed driver in the golf cart when it is operating on city streets. Kids love to drive the golf carts, and it is a good way for them to learn to drive, but a licensed adult driver must always be sitting beside the under-aged driver. Also, it is against the rules for anyone to be standing up while the cart is moving. These rules always apply.  

The Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) is our wonderfully reliable source of electricity. PEC treats its customers like shareholders in that every year we get to vote in their annual Board of Directors election. Those who are elected serve 3-year terms, with a limit of three consecutive terms for any individual. Three positions are up for election this year - Districts 1, 6 and 7. Meadowlakes is in District 1, but this is not like political races where you can only vote for the person who represents your geographic area. We get one vote per household in each of the three races.

The last chance for early voting is this Friday, June 12th, by midnight. If you received a ballot by mail and tossed it out, you can still vote on-line. Call the PEC Election service at 866-909-3549, through Friday from 8:00-5:00, and a new ballot will be sent to you via e-mail, along with an election ID, password and instructions on how to submit your vote electronically.

Meadowlakes Webworm Control Coop - Update

A few webworm "webs" are already starting to appear in trees on Meadowlakes Drive and San Saba Street. Spotting webs in May is unusually early based on recent years' experience in Meadowlakes. The Coop will continue close monitoring of this development and will keep property owners updated using the email addresses you supplied. For those yet to supply an email addresses; email me and I will include you in all future updates.

The Coop has incorporated all property owner payments as a result of receipts collected from the April billing cycle. These receipts coupled with prior year carryover credits result in 336 out of the 413 total properties with pecan trees being funded for the first spray of the webworm season. There are however, 77 properties that are not funded as of this date. For property owners who have yet to decide to participate in the upcoming spray, there is still time; so please return you letters with payment and you will be included in the upcoming spray.

The recent "wetter" than normal weather is very conducive to increased webworm infestations. The Coop encourages all who have pecan trees to participate in the spray program. Call or email me if you have questions.
