Holiday Light Display Benefiting Autism Awareness

For those of you which enjoy light displays or have small children that do, The Hannah's, one of our neighbors in Devon-Aire Estates, transform their home into a castle that puts on a spectacular light show they call the Christmas Castle.  This is a light display with some 50,000 lights which are synchronized to holiday music. They occasionally have characters at the display, some from the movie Frozen and also put out a fireworks show (weather permitting) on some nights at the end of the show.  Folks living on 123rd Place have undoubtedly heard the music playing daily and occasional fireworks. The lights run from Sunday - Thursday from 6PM - 10PM and Friday - Saturday 6PM - 11PM and will run through December 28th.  Donations benefiting autism awareness through the Dan Marino Autism Foundation can be made while there.  The display is located at 12331 SW 109th Terr which is a short walk from Devon-Aire Villas #1 West through the 106th Street exit.  You can visit their web site by going to: http://www.christmascastle.us. If you are unable to go there to see it for yourself, there are some videos posted by the Hannah's for you to enjoy on their website.

Completion of Sealcoat of Common Streets & Driveways 12/6/2014

The sealcoating project came to a successful close on Thursday, 12/11/2014.  We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the residents that helped us knock on doors in the mornings, direct traffic, direct parking and keep watch of the streets during the project.  The project was better organized than the 2009 project. We also want to thank all the residents that wrote in and called letting us know how well things turned out.  We agree and hope that the slight inconvenience posed during the project not only keeps the roads looking good but will also help protect the roads for another 5 years.

Sealcoat of Common Streets & Driveways to Begin 12/6/2014

Devon-Aire #1 will begin Seal Coating the community roads and your personal driveway on 12/6/2014. Homeowners are responsible to edge the grass around their driveway before sealing begins.

Vehicles left within the area to be seal coated after 7 AM on the date their section is to begin will be towed away at the owners expense. Therefore, we advise you to move your vehicle(s) the day before or the morning of the sealcoat of your area and driveway. If sealcoating begins you will not be able to move your vehicle without damaging the sealcoat and will be charged for any damage if you attempt to move your vehicle once sealcoating has begun.

Vehicles will not be permitted to drive on the seal coated area for 48 hours after it is applied. Do not enter barricaded areas until the barricades are removed by staff. Vehicles that drive on freshly seal coated areas before they are opened by the staff will damage the seal coating and damage caused by any resident/tenant will be directly billed to that homeowner.

Parking will be permitted in the common areas outside of the barricade areas. If any homeowner or tenant removes a barricade or drives on an area and damages the sealcoat the cost for repair will be directly billed to that homeowner.

The association has hired security officers to monitor the parking areas and maintain the integrity of the barricaded areas. Homeowners may not park on the grass of their home or block driveways or streets. They must park in designated parking areas which will be located in the common grass fields or exterior sidewalks on 122nd Avenue or 106th Street surrounding the community.

If it rains, seal coating will be cancelled for that day and will be rescheduled for the following day.

The inconvenience is only for a few days but your patience during this process is for the betterment of this community and the Association appreciates your cooperation. If you do not wish to have your driveway sealcoated please place a rope and sign indicating such. If your driveway is in disrepair or contains a vehicle it will not be sealcoated.  Also, volunteers are needed to help direct traffic and monitor the seal coated areas. Please contact Management @ (305) 251-0777.
