Surprise! Sealing Again Postponed to Week of August 14
Due to weather and material supply issues for the contractor, slurry sealing has been postponed yet again to next week. Work will take 3-5 days. Look for signs posted on the roads the evening before the scheduled sealing. Work may begin as early as 7:00 am and roads may remain closed as late as 6:00 pm on the following:
Work schedule is dependent on weather. This sealing cannot be done if it rains. If there are questions, please feel free to contact Brian McCall by email at mccallbrian@msn.com or by phone at (734) 426-4546.
About Those Yard Signs...
The Loch Alpine Restriction Agreement limits signs on a private lot to only a single sign advertising the property for sale or rent. Yard signs for political, festival, school/student activities, contractor work, etc. are not allowed and are removed from LA property, including the road right-of-way adjacent to lots and the entrances.
Board Bulletin July 18

Slurry Sealing to Start Thursday
Slurry sealing will begin on Thursday, July 20, and continue the next few days on the following roads:
Slurry top coat requires 3-4 hours minimal cure time. No traffic or parking will be permitted on these roads until the slurry has cured. If you live on these roads and need to use your car during these hours we suggest that you park on one of the adjacent streets. We regret the inconvenience, but this is a necessary part of annual road maintenance.
Work schedule is dependent on weather. This sealing cannot be done if it rains. If there are questions, please feel free to contact Brian McCall by email at mccallbrian@msn.com or by phone at (734) 426-4546.
Lakes Treated July 18 Both lakes in Loch Alpine were treated on July 18 to control algae and invasive aquatic plants. As a reminder, no swimming for 24 hours and keep your pets from drinking the lake water for 14 days following treatment. Please also refer to the notices posted around the lakes and on many mail-posts for important details. New Accounts Management for LASA Effective July 1, the Loch Alpine Sanitary Authority transitioned to a firm with expertise and the ability to provide consistently available support for billing, customer service and other responsibilities. LASA has hired Saline-based Woodhill Group to manage those tasks. They currently represent several similar entities. They look to upgrade LASA technology to reduce the necessity to manually read meters as well as provide other efficiencies. The new contact for LASA Account Management/Billing is (888) 269-1059. For more information, go to the Water/Sewer page of the Loch Alpine website. LASA wishes to thank Sandy Egeler for her approximately 30 years of service as its Accounts Manager.
Litigation Status On June 26, the trial jury unanimously found in Loch Alpine's favor: that our Restriction Agreement prohibits use of the golf lots for residential purposes. This means A2C2 Partnership, the plaintiff, or any future owner cannot develop the golf property for new houses. The jury found against us on our counterclaims, which asked that the golf lots had to be maintained for recreational use only. We do not know whether A2C2 Partnership will appeal the jury verdict.
The jury verdict and other documents related to the litigation are available on the LAIA website, the password protected page AACC Preservation, Sale & Development Information.

An Open Letter to Dog Owners
Most of you leash your dogs while walking them on Loch Alpine streets, parks and pathways. The entire Loch Alpine community thanks you for being law-abiding and courteous in this way.
To those who sometimes take your dog off leash, we have a short but earnest request: Please don’t. Even good dogs need to be leashed at all times.
Respectfully yours,
The Loch Alpine Board of Directors

LOCH ALPINE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION LOCH ALPINE AWARD
The Loch Alpine Award was established by the Loch Alpine Improvement Association to recognize a person or persons who have demonstrated Exemplary efforts, Commitment and Dedication to the Loch Alpine Community.
In recognition and appreciation of his exemplary efforts to the community, the Loch Alpine Board has selected John Posch for the 2023 Loch Alpine Award. John has been on the Grounds Committee for many years and quickly started contributing right from the start…building and painting emergency ladders for our lakes, installing our boulder sign lights, assisting with the sanding and re-staining of our picnic tables, fixing our park water fountain whenever it had leaks. Last year he recruited Tom Bellisario and led two great projects, building a large new sandbox for our playground (later adding a sun cover as well) and fixed our Rock Park fence which had been an eye sore for many years. John also volunteered for a Lakes Committee project and installed the 4 life rings around our lakes. He has also been an active participant on the Communications Committee.
The Loch Alpine Improvement Association is proud to have honored recipients of the Loch Alpine Award since 2001 (prior to 2013, the award was designated the Sendra Award). The previous recipients can be found here.
