Jeff Vernon informed attendees that the
new HOA board would be getting together to review all neighborhood concerns left
on index cards over the next 90 days.
The board will review and work together to address concerns at the next
quarterly meeting.
Kristen Shinn updated on TN Wastewater
situation. TN Wastewater is a 2-step
system. TN Wastewater should have a
treatment facility for our waste (and in most other areas where their system is
used, they do). Derek Comperry assisted
in building pipes from our neighborhood for our waste to connect to pipes owned
and treated by Clarksville Gas and Water.
Clarksville Gas and Water charges South Ridge at the industrial rate,
because in the eyes of CG&W, South Ridge is “one customer.” That charge is submitted to TN
Wastewater. TN Wastewater is then
charging us the CG&W rate, and their own service charges.
South Ridge is (to our knowledge) the
only customer with TN Wastewater without their own treatment plant. TN Wastewater has recently turned over a new board
and they are willing to work with us to adjust our rates based on what CG&W
charges TN Wastewater. The board will
review each June to reassess the charges and adjust accordingly. Residents should see a reduction in costs on
their August bill.
TN Wastewater says to build a treatment
plant, they need the land on which to build the treatment plant as well as the
money to build it which will require they secure a loan. They do have the land, but state that they do
not have the money to build a South Ridge treatment facility. They also stated that they will re-visit the
securement of a loan to build the facility.
This treatment facility will allow us to cut ties with CG&W.
This situation will be ongoing and the
board will stay on top of it and update as necessary.
TN Wastewater is supposed to check tanks
annually and check for maintenance. For
maintenance from home to tank, the homeowner is responsible. For maintenance on tank and out, contact TN
Wastewater.
Christie Kettle encouraged participation
and volunteers for the three committees we are trying to get going again.

The
Beautification Committee will work towards upkeep on front entrance, lights;
Yard of the Month may be a possibility and other such ideas that may
incorporate the beautification of our neighborhood.
