    It Was a Great Day to Clear Scotch Broom

    On Saturday, October 24, 2020, the weather was beautiful and we had a fantastic turnout of 15 volunteers to clear scotch broom from the SPA Manion property. For those unaware, the SPA Manion property is bordered on the West by Manion Dr and the North East tip is next to Pine Ridge Ct. Another landmark is High Surf Ln where the Manion property is almost directly East of the High Surf Ln and Manion Dr intersection. This property is where six well heads (now capped) are located. The wells supplied the Surf Pines Community with water prior to Surf Pines connecting with Warrenton City Water. The property has not been cleared or…

    The German Shepard that attacked and killed Iverson’s little dog Roscoe is back.

    Vicky Tarbert-Iverson 13 mins  · Just a heads up. I wanted to alert the neighborhood to the fact that the German Shepard that attacked our Lil’ Rosco in July is in the neighborhood once again at 89727 Sea Breeze Dr. The fence to this residence (located on the Manion Drive side) was damaged by windstorm and has a large piece missing (mesh netting stapled to close the opening) so the German Shepard has access out of the yard. The dog in question viciously lunged the opening as my husband was walking by this morning with our new little family member. PLEASE, be cautious when out walking on your own, with your pets or when…

    Gate crashed through again seventh time.

    One of our delivery vans tried to piggy back through the gate. Got them. Camera shows it was a Parcel Delivery van, which hit the gate Tuesday at bit before 12:41 PM. Person came back and put gate against road out of way. Completely blew through it trying to piggy back another car. The driver did report to police and has insurance to cover damage. This time they tore out the wire harness so we needed to order a new arm from our gate vendor. As protocol, we left gate open till fixed. Probably a good thing with the big storm that hit Wednesday. Why does this keep happening? Some think it is…
