OCTOBER 2016 NEWSLETTER
FROM THE MANAGER’S DESK
Dear Ponds Homeowners,
The big news this month is that we will have a 2nd
choice
for “hardwired” TV, phone, and Internet services here at
The Ponds. You’ve likely seen the HomeTelco trucks in
the neighborhood, the marker flags, and the paint on the
ground marking utility lines. HomeTelco is beginning a
project of installing fiber-optic lines throughout the
community. They will be using the best machines available
to route lines underground without the need to trench.
They will do some digging, but the majority of their work
will be unobtrusive. They ask that you flag your irrigation
heads in the areas where they run lines, and use a white
landscape marker paint to show where your irrigation lines
are located. An advantage of HomeTelco is that they
deliver service through fiber to the house, not just to the
curb. Introductory packages to Ponds homeowners will
include upgrades to the wiring within your homes so you
can enjoy all of the advantages fiber-to-the-home offers.
You will receive additional information on the company’s
services and fees as they reach down to your streets from
Hundred Oaks Parkway. To keep updated on their
progress, as well as to complete a form for more
information, you may also go to VelocitybyHome.com/
Ponds. The site will be updated regularly as they move
through the community.
Some of you have noticed the new recycle containers in
the Pavilion and Farmhouse. The Ponds Conservancy
made these gracious contributions as part of their ongoing
efforts to practice environmental stewardship. Please use
them and sort the individual pieces as marked on the
containers. They are for recyclable glass, plastic, and
paper only. Please continue to use the existing trash cans
for all other materials.
Sincerely,
Steve Grimes
Community Manager
