MARCH 1 -- GATE OPEN FOR THE SEASON + CHANGES AT THE FARM

Dear Homeowners ... We wanted to let you know that beginning on Friday, March 1st the gate will be unlocked for the season.  And, as of March 1st, you are allowed to stay overnight in your home during the week.  Please remember that the water will not be turned on throughout the community until much later in the month ... and is weather dependent (no freezing temperatures). 

We also wanted to make you aware of some changes that have occurred at the farm and our access road through the farm.  (Yes, the Board is aware.)  The owners have installed some additional fencing and bushes along the road.  They plan to start boarding horses once again and can house up to 20 in their barn.  They also board a number of dogs.  The fencing is there to protect not only the animals but also the children that play on the property as a number of our homeowners and/or their guests tend to speed through the farm or go "off-road" on the farm property to avoid some of the speed bumps. The width of the road between the fences is a little over 15 feet and Driftwood RV Center confirmed that it is wide enough to bring in a new trailer.  

Since our access road was never set up to be a 2-lane road (our easement through his property is only the width of the pavement), the farm will provide 3 pull offs to accommodate the flow of traffic.  It has always been difficult to see the full length of the road when you enter from Stagecoach Road or as you are leaving the campground from the Wildlife Refuge.  We are asking everyone to please be courteous and have patience as you enter and exit the road through the farm.  Please STOP and LOOK when entering and leaving.  A vehicle already on the access road will have the right of way (regardless of whether they are incoming or outgoing) and you will need to stop at either end or use one of the pull offs.  If the farm owners see any vehicles speeding (our speed limit is 5 mph), we have asked them to write down the tag number and a description of the vehicle. Speeders will be notified and repeat offenders can be fined by the Association.  WE ARE ASKING EVERYONE TO PLEASE COOPERATE AND BE GOOD NEIGHBORS ... not only to the owners of the farm, but to your fellow neighbors at Old Stagecoach.  

Please be sure to pass this along to friends and family who don't visit often or are new to Old Stagecoach.  

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
