Storm Damage

-
Both Houston and Dallas were slammed with hurricane-force winds Tuesday as violent storms flooded roads, upended trees and power lines and reduced some buildings to shells of their former selves. At least eight people have been killed in the state since Saturday as severe weather pummeled the region over Memorial Day weekend.

The Lakes of Bent Tree suffered mostly minor damages in this morning's storm. So far, the most significant appears to be a chimney cap (5062) and trees (5024, 5162) that were blown down. The majority of the tree damage was on the lakeside between 5024 and 5070 Westgrove.vThree homes reported leaks (groundwater, window, and flashing). The front and rear gates were inoperatble for a few hours.

If you experience any building damages, please fill out a work order (see link at top of page) and send photos. If you have an urgent situation, please email the board. If you have an emergency situation, please call 911.

Please help by moving dropped limbs and debris to the street for pickup today.

Additional damage and information cleanup will be reported here.

    There is a large tree blocking Westgrove east of LoBT. Cars are not able to pass.

      I’m worried about what these landscapers with chainsaws will do tomorrow. If they do an even a slightly wrong thing tomorrow behind my unit, they will bash windows in all 4 units in my quad.

THIS ARTICLE IS IN PROCESS: THE INFORMATION BELOW IS A DRAFT Despite a staggering insurance related assessment increase in 2024 and a 60% increase again this year, the Association was able miimize the impact on homeowners and hold the increase in assessments to 3.79% for 2025. This makes the average over the last five years 4.42% which is in line with the inflation rate in North Texas. A lot has happened in 5 years. On the positive side, in 2021 the Association reduced assesments by -9.38% by slashing excessive and wasteful spending by CMA Management. It also paid down ~75% of its debt. On the downside, the Associations in North Texas were been hit with substantial insurance increases in 2023 and 2024 and we all faced a 41-year high inflation rate (peaking at 8.9% in 2024) that drove a 24.8% increase last year. Effective January 1, monthly assessments will be as follows: TABLES PRESENTED AT THE MEETING. NARRATIVE TO FOLLOW Lin...
