Annual Inspection Announcement

God Bless everyone this Memorial Day Weekend.

As I came out of the supermarket one day, pushing my cart of groceries towards my car, I saw an old man with the hood of his car up and a lady sitting inside the car, with the door open. The old man was looking at the engine. I put my groceries away in my car, and continued to watch the old gentleman from about twenty five feet away.

I saw a young man in his early twenties with a grocery bag in his arm walking towards the old man. The old gentleman saw him coming too, and took a few steps towards him..........

AE Resident Questions

A resident posted a comment to the T.A.N. post dated 05/21 about the May 14th BOD meeting and asked the following questions:

"Does anyone know when the main driveway will be open again?"

"How about when the concrete work will be starting?"

1). The main driveway was opened today (05/23) and traffic to and from all buildings is back to normal.

2). Bids from contractors are being taken now and concrete work on Buildings 2 and 3 only should start soon.  B. Hicks stated in the May board meeting that he hopes the work can be completed in 2 or 3 months at the most.

Look for more details in the manager's report which should be published soon.

A Message From Your T.A.N. Editor

Dear T.A.N. Readers:

       I would like to apologize for the lack of  news here on T.A.N. for the past couple of weeks.  Unfortunately, I have a neck injury which has made it impossible for me to sit at a computer for any length of time.  However, things are getting much better now after treatment and I will be posting as usual starting tomorrow.  There are a lot of new developments on the roof project, the new sign project as well as  the agenda to be published for the next board meeting. (Wednesday, May 14).

Thanks for reading T.A.N.

Your editor,
