Yes, once we have the final info, we'll put a sign on each door.
We also plan to park a vehicle in front of the gate as a physical road
block, along with a road closed sign.
Thanks,
Alex

So are we printing up a letter for each household and placing them on the door.
I don't think everyone is going to get the message in the list serve. Also are
we going to put up some sort of road block at the gate so we don't have a
repeat of the last time? The way it is now, we have no control over delivery of
ups or anything else.

Hi everyone,
This email is being sent so that you can begin planning now. More information on the exact dates and times will follow.
The HOA is currently in the final stages of planning the sealcoat project. This is where cracks in the road are filled, and a tar spray paint is applied to the road's surface. The coating takes approximately 24 hours to cure. This maintenance is typically performed every 9-10 years, and it extends the life of the road.
This project is of a large magnitude and will directly affect each resident. We ask for your understanding and cooperation during the project. We apologize in advance for the inconvenience that you will experience.
The neighborhood road (pavement) will be closed to all vehicles and pedestrians for a 24 hour period next week. You will not be able to drive or walk on the pavement. You may walk on the cement strips that border the pavement, and it is possible to reach each unit on foot without stepping on the pavement.
The exact day is still to be determined, but we are aiming for Monday with Tuesday and Wednesday as backup days, depending on weather. If there is more than a 30-40% chance of rain, then the project will be postponed to the next day. Most likely it will be an 8AM-8AM period. We will provide more details before the end of the week.
Preparation steps for residents:
1. Avoid scheduling deliveries or pickups between Monday - Wednesday. In the event that a delivery or pickup cannot be made, they will make another attempt the next day.
2. Avoid scheduling contractors or moving trucks.
3. Vehicles that are parked in driveways cannot cover the cement strip on the day of the project, or they will be towed. Typically these are larger trucks that occupy the full length of the driveway. The logic here is that these cement strips will serve as temporary sidewalks to allow people to access their units on foot. We will place notices on these vehicles ahead of time to increase awareness. We will also attempt to make contact with affected units before calling for a tow.
4. Guest parking spaces must be vacated by 8AM on the day of the project, or vehicles will be towed.
5. Remove your car from your driveway or garage by 8AM on the day of the project if you plan to drive that day. If you don't plan to drive, then it is fine to leave your vehicle in your garage or driveway.
*
Vehicles in driveways have little risk of the spray being blown but residents are encouraged to put their vehicle(s) in the garage, off the property, or cover the vehicle during the day of repair.
BluePrint Painting and Renovations, the Highland Unit Owners Association, and Community Management Associates will not be held responsible should this occur, so please take appropriate precautions.
6. If you plan to drive on the day of the project, you will need to park your vehicle outside of the neighborhood for one night. Possible parking options are Hilliard St, the grassy lot across the street from Hilliard, Cain St (near Jackson St bridge), and the Atlanta Medical Center (AMC) parking lot (across from Highland). The AMC option is the most secure, and there is a $6 charge.
7. Make mental notes on how you can access your unit on foot without walking on the pavement. Note that the 400 and 500 buildings can only be accessed via the rear pedestrian gate.
Residents who walk or drive on uncured sealcoat will be fined a minimum of $500, plus the cost to repair or replace the damaged areas! During the last project, a UPS truck drove onto uncured sealcoat, and you can still see tire marks near the 900 building.
Thanks,
Alex
