Box 8181 <br /> Hillsborough,NC 27278 <br /> RE: Churton Grove Community Amenities Issues <br /> Dear Commissioners: <br /> I reported upon concerns regarding the question of availability of amenities and the potential to <br /> enjoy these amenities.as residents of Churton Grove community at the last board meeting on May <br /> 8,2002. On May 22,2002,a meeting with Churton Grove residents was requested by the <br /> developer,with Jim Moore representing Churton Grove LLC. This meeting was held at the <br /> Hillsborough Holiday Inn Express at 7:30 pm with many residents attending. Concerns about <br /> safety regarding lighting and the configuration of paths were discussed. Also,a request for <br /> names of those interested in being on certain committees,from which the developer would select <br /> members, was made. There was also dialog about specific concerns regarding individual matters. <br /> The next meeting is planned for August. <br /> From my understanding,these were the issues discussed regarding completing and enjoyment of <br /> the slurred amenities: <br /> Issue: Request that developer meet"end of 2002" deadline for pool and clubhouse <br /> availability: <br /> The developer said that he"hoped"to have the clubhouse ready by the end of the year and the <br /> pool, meeting local competition specifications,ready by"next spring." Mr.Jackson of Carolina <br /> Aquatech Pool,who has spoken with Mr. Moore about building the Churton Grove pool,said that <br /> if we do not see construction begin on the pool by sometime in August the pool would not be <br /> ready in the spring. <br /> Issue: Request that type and number of muldhousing units be identified: <br /> The developer said that townhomes of two to four bedrooms,ranging in price from$130,000 to <br /> $200,000,and in the quantity of 216, would comprise the multihousing component of our <br /> community. <br /> Issue: Request that the clubhouse and pool be of solid construction: <br /> No mention was made of construction except to ensure that the pool would be of the proper <br /> specification for participation in local swim competitions. My research with Carolina Aquatech <br /> Pool,a company who builds many community and YMCA pools,makes these recommendations: <br /> • Built with reinforced concrete. <br /> • Use of Pentair filter. <br /> May. 2002 <br /> Churton Grove Community Amenities <br />
