Town Forum Meeting

There will be a community “Town Forum” meeting on 9/12 at 7:00PM at Blackwell Elementary School to discuss the recent school, homes and Timberline property vandalism. See below article on area vandalism.    The Sammamish City Manager as well as chief of police will attend.  Organized by the Timberline Ridge HOA board and community, the agenda will consist of an update of the incident investigation by the city officials as well as Q&A and will last approximately 1 hour.    This is an opportunity to support your neighbors as well as our Blackwell Elementary School.

 

Area Vandalism

In the early morning hours of 8/26 and 8/27 Timberline area homes and property as well as Blackwell Elementary School were hit with a number of acts of spray paint vandalism and other destruction.   The damage was extensive and includes homes, monuments as well as school.   The Sammamish police are investigating and have recovered at least one of the cans of spray paint as evidence.   While Sterlingwoods has not been affected by this incident, unfortunately we are not immune.  This summer several of our monument lights have been damaged and are in the process of being replaced. 

 

Sammamish police indicated that these types of acts of vandalism peak in the weeks before school starts and that now is the time to keep an extra eye open for any unusual activity in the late evening or early morning.  Additionally, they indicate that the best action is to call them as opposed to confronting anyone.     There are two numbers that you can call: Emergency and in-progress 9-1-1 and Non-emergency dispatch (206) 296-3311.

 

Sterlingwoods Secured Mailbox

On 6/30/2005, the HOA passed a motion to adopt a secured mailbox system.   LockBox of Mercer Island was the selected vendor.  Lockbox is the same vendor that upgraded the Timberline Ridge community with a similar system.  Lockbox will be coming to our SW neighborhood to begin installation on or around 9/19/2005 and will have all of the structures upgraded by 9/22/2005.  Please check this site for the latest schedule.
 

Q: How does the transition work?
Assuming you have fully paid the mailbox assessment, the vendor will place your old postal box near  your front door. Inside your former box, will be that day’s mail and a duplicate set of keys to access your new box.
 

Q: How do I pay my assessment?
Please make checks payable to: Sterling Woods Homeowner’s Association for the amount of $90.00
        Mailing address:
        Sterling Woods Homeowner’s Association
        704 228th Ave. NE #447
        Sammamish, WA 98074-7222

Q: When is the assessment due?
        September 1, 2005
 

Q: We are going to be on vacation during the planned timeframe?
Assuming you stopped your USPS mail, you will still get your old box by your front door and your set of keys for the new box. Please contact Albert Jee at
        Albert Jee (aljee@hotmail.com)
        20508 NE 21st CT
        425-836-2113

or a Board Member for any additional special handling; we will do our best to accommodate.
 

Q: Where can we get an extra set of keys made our new box?
Any hardware store or home improvement building center can make these keys. The closest to our neighborhood would be Sammamish Ace Hardware (425-868-2203), near Safeway and adjacent to Sammamish City Hall.
 

Q: We lost our keys and forget to make a duplicate?
Contact Lockbox, Mr. David Cristalli, 206-232-4814, and they will come out and replace your existing lock with a brand new one and provide you with a new set of keys. They do not have any existing master keys to open your box. Another option would be to contact your favorite locksmith, and have him perform this task. However, it’s unlikely he has the same brand of lock to replace it with.

 

Q: The outgoing mailslot is too restrictive for my outgoing package?
Unofficially, leave the package inside your incoming box, and place a sticky note, “Outgoing”, so the mail carrier can handle the package accordingly.

Q: I haven’t paid the assessment, we just gotten back from an extended trip?
You will get your old box and any existing mail from that day, but no “keys” for your box until you have paid your assessment.

Q: I have additional questions, who can I contact?
Your SW neighbor, Albert Jee, 20508 NE 21st CT (aljee@hotmail.com) 425-836-2113, is the Project Mgr. for this community project or feel free to contact any of the SW HOA Board Members
