Can You Greet Your Neighbors In Their Native Language?
Recently we published a list of greetings in the native language of some of our neighbors. This is an
updated list and a few more countries were added from our international neighbors. The greetings I use
mostly in the morning walking around Highland Lakes are: Buenos dias, Ni hao, Namaste (with folding
hands in front), Marhaba and Sdravo and of course, good morning.

MANAGEMENT REPORT
TO: Board of Directors, Co-Owners RE: Property Manager’s Report
FROM: Joe Poma, Property Manager DATE: August 17, 2020

1. Patio Weeds: Recent inspections of the property confirm that weeds growing in the patios and around the
perimeter of the condominiums are on the rise as much as the complaints that are following them. I under-
stand that it’s not the most exciting thing to do on a weekend, but if each resident could spend a half hour or
hour every three weeks, the problem would not exist. There are some products at Home Depot, like Preen,
that can make your job much easier and just keeping an eye on the condition of the patio will prevent an eye-
sore for the neighbors. Many of the problem areas are the result of absentee owners, people on vacation or
basic oversight, but some simple planning and a commitment every month will make the property look much
better.
2. Siding Project: Dealing with capital improvement projects on a large scale gives you a sense of just how
much damage Covid and the resulting shutdown has caused to the economy and our resources. The siding
project is moving forward even though at a much slower pace and we’ve managed to re-side the buildings,
add new trim-work, mailboxes and address plaques, but we have been unable to completely finish a single
building, whether it be missing shutters or a certain back-ordered color of siding. We are still waiting on a
large shipment of black shutters and are unable to determine when we will receive them because the manu-
facturer lacks the materials and resources to produce them. The problem is compounded by a lack of work-
ers. Companies were entering into construction contracts before the shutdown occurred and when everything
came back online in May, they had an overwhelming number of jobs to catch up on; the only solution was
to continually shift workers from one job to another and work on each job before they lost the contract and
the financial position of the company was put at risk. Extended families of workers are also contracting the
virus and leading to personal time off. The situation appears to be worse with a subcontracting scenario, but
every company is scrambling to catch up. Rashid Construction still plans on finishing all of the scheduled
buildings for 2020 this year, but for those residents who are seeing something that looks unfinished, that’s
because it is. When a building is claimed to be complete by the contractor, there will be a two-step process
for inspection. I will notify the residents of the building to walk around their condominiums and take notes
as to anything that appears to be substandard or incomplete and they will submit the list, if any, to the office.
I will then forward it to the contractor. The second step will be a Board inspection of the entire building,
followed by their punch list. Some of our Board members have years of construction, siding and business
experience which will be put to good use prior to a final payment being issued to the contractor.
3. Lawn Care: We are slowly gaining “ground” on our lawn care situation following the shutdown and have
retained a company to provide weed whipping services for the site at least once every three weeks. The
price of contractor is in-line with what we would be paying for seasonal employees, so it is working very
well at this point. We also hired two gardeners with the primary purpose of pulling weeds and maintaining
the flower beds at the clubhouse, 8 Mile Road entrance and the beaches. Our Grounds crew has finished
the first round of shrub trimming and they are now concentrating on removing all of the weeds and chutes
growing under common element trees. I have requested funding for a property-wide mulch application next
year as well as sand for both beaches. As previously stated, the hiring process has been difficult with sea-
sonal employees as we are competing with unemployment benefits; both of them being temporary but one
involves the benefit of staying at home and not working. The lawn crew has been mowing the grass steadily
throughout this entire time and is keeping up with everything with the exception of one week where they
were diverted to edge the entire property. Tree trimming and removal is behind schedule simply because the
contractor has an abundance of storm and wind damage related work, so they often have to schedule up to
five weeks out from the point of the service request.
4. Watercraft Maintenance: The office is receiving calls that many of the watercraft docked along the sea-
walls are full of water and algae. Maintenance will be conducting a sweep of all un-registered and seemingly
9
MANAGEMENT REPORT
TO: Board of Directors, Co-Owners RE: Property Manager’s Report
FROM: Joe Poma, Property Manager DATE: August 17, 2020

abandoned watercraft in the next couple of weeks and I’m asking residents to be sure to empty and clean
their paddleboats and maybe invest in a cover to prevent the need for periodic maintenance. In the case of
paddleboats especially, they tend to become partially submerged and once they drop below the waterline,
the only remedy is to use heavy equipment to winch them out of the lake. This season, more than anything
though, is the problem of standing water becoming a breeding ground for insects. The window was some-
what missed to treat the property for mosquito larvae along the shorelines and due to the shutdown, so we
are hearing that people are being swarmed by mosquitoes on lakeshore patios. If you have a watercraft,
please remember to register it at the front desk and maintain it throughout the season.
5. Sewer Inspections: The Association is undertaking a camera inspection project of all of our sewer lines
and we’ve retained Horton Plumbing for that purpose. As of August 14th, we have inspected and video-
documented 25 out of our 92 buildings. Over the course of 50 years, the cast iron crocks and joint locations
have shifted in some places due to settling or intrusion by tree roots, and this causes the need for sewer line
cabling; often when it is too late and the basements in a certain building are flooded. Tree roots are relative-
ly normal in a sewer line, but when discovered, the building needs to be placed on a periodic maintenance
schedule as a preventative measure. Not only are we doing that, but we are snaking out the lines as we
discover any issues, so hopefully, we will have far fewer basement issues in the near future as a result (not
unlike the chimney inspections we did back in 2010). A few of the buildings have some more serious is-
sues ranging from separations to widely shifting directions and dips in the piping causing water and waste to
collect at a certain point in the pipe run. We are considering options and collecting proposals for these areas.
By combining this project with our sump pump replacements and back-up systems, we hope to make base-
ment flooding a thing of the past.
6. Robo-Call System: Residents of HLCA automatically have their e-mail addresses entered in our infor-
mation database and calling system until they choose to opt-out or be removed. If you would like to also
receive text messages, text the word “ALERT” to 22300 and your cell number will be added as well. Please
note that you may opt-out at any time, but we do not overuse the system, so you won’t be receiving mes-
sages every day, but rather, when important information needs to be sent.

Grounds committee 2021 budget request:
• Plants for Clubhouse and sign.
• Full size picnic table made of composite or wood for the beach area.
• 2 benches for along Silver Springs walkway.
• Repair path from bridge to Rippling Lane (needs to be shored up with 2x6 boards and short posts) replace 3 or 4 boards.
Joel will send list to Joe Poma.

2. Guest Peggy Weber of Longwood Court was introducted to the participants.

3. Co-owner request (unit 366): Lawn maintenance (contractor) mowed down flowers in front yard. Flowers will be replaced.

4. Co-owner request (unit 674): Request to plant a tree behind back fence. Approval pending Miss Dig locating utilities behind unit.

5. Co-owner request: Request to have sidewalk along Russ Fogg Drive. This request will be forwarded to the Board without a recommendation.

6. Co-owner request (unit 132): Request to have HLCA plant 2 trees in front of unit. This unit is on Lake Success facing Silver Springs Drive. The
request is to replace one tree that HLCA removed and add a second one. Replacement tree standard policy of Association. Second tree would be
co-owners responsibility. Miss Dig should locate water line entering front of unit to condition approval of second tree.

7. Co-owner request (unit 663): Request to plant a tree behind unit next to dead tree once dead tree is removed, leaving the roots for erosion
control. The co–owner has already put in a request to have the dead tree removed. There are two other large trees in the vicinity. Request was
for a sycamore or black locust. Discussion was held about the pros and cons of these large trees. Request approved as long as new tree is planted
further out from unit than present trees to avoid electrical lines behind this building.

8. Co-owner request (unit 563): Request to plant a crabapple tree in front of their unit. This would be a new tree, not a replacement. Homeowner
to be advised that HLCA no longer sprays crabapple trees so a disease resistant variety should be picked and a native variety is recommended.
Area in front of unit is free of utility lines. A list of acceptable crabapple varieties can be provided.

9. Co-owner request (unit 72): Request that HLCA put a planting screen around a power box. Discussion was started on this agenda item when
zoom meeting time ran out. It will be placed on the next meeting agenda. There was consensus that any planting must meet DTE requirements.

Discussion was held confirming that all approvals are pending the results of Miss Dig findings. The requests will be sorted according to whether
the tree plantings are replacements or new trees.

RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE BOARD:


Approve by standing replacement tree policy item 7 and one of item 6.
Item 8 new tree approval recommended.
Item 4 and second tree in item 6 reserve approval until Miss Dig identifies utility line locations.
Item 5 please decide if this is even considerable.

Sharon Smith, Secretary Michelle Todorov, Board President
Rosemary Campion Joe Poma, Property Manager
Elaine Anderson Peggy Weber
Yvonne Wilson

SUBJECTS DISCUSSED:
1. Co-owner request to have plants replaced near electrical junction box (DTE): Discussion continued from the last meet-
ing. DTE requirements were reviewed. Plantings must be located 2 feet from the sides and 8 feet from the front of the box
and may be damaged if access is needed to the box. See https://newlook.dteenergy.com/wps/wcm/connect/dte-web/home/
problems-and-safety-landing/common/safety/dte-equipment-safety.
Joe will contact commercial DTE to get clarification on what is allowed and report back to the committee. Planting around
these power boxes is done at your own risk.
Discussion was held about new plantings done on common ground by co-owners. It was agreed that a policy is needed re-
garding the maintaining of the planting and what to do if it is no longer being maintained (e.g. owner unable, moved away).
Sharon will write a draft of a policy for discussion at the August meeting. Consensus was that co-owner who requested the
planting must maintain it and if it is not maintained it will be restored to grass by HLCA staff.
Clarification was also given about cost. If a tree is approved by the Board as a replacement on common grounds HLCA will
pay for it and plant it. Replacement trees will only be of a size that can be planted without bringing in any equipment. If a
new tree is approved by the Board for planting on common ground (not a replacement), the co-owner pays for the tree and
the planting.

2. Co-owner request to have tree replaced near her unit on Farragut court (unit 643): Approved by the committee and will
be sent to the Board. Co-owner has placed a request to remove dead tree.

3. Requirements for Grounds Committee Membership: Grounds committee bylaws need revision including looking at
requirements for membership. Copies of other committee bylaws, a copy of the committee page on the HLCA website and
a copy of the Grounds committee description from the HLCA website will be sent to members. The item will be on the
August agenda for discussion.

4. Appointment of Vice Chairman: Yvonne Wilson was appointed as Vice Chair of the Grounds committee to serve until
elections next April.

5. Guest Peggy Weber of Longwood Court:


Peggy was re- introduced to the participants and had several issues to discuss:
• 8Mile entrance sign east side – Joe explained the background of the missing sign (township requirements, code
requirements, age of the existing sign, etc). Co-owner was advised to petition the Board if she still wanted the sign
replaced.
• A new HOA flag is on order for the Clubhouse.
• Fence cut along Silver Springs drive near Russ Fogg drive. Joe will investigate.
• Branches of a tree hitting roof on Amboy Court – Joe explained the process to remove tree limbs that are too high or
too big for HLCA staff to remove, otherwise a work order will do.
• Potholes on drives and sidewalks need repair. Joe explained the two long term projects that are in process regarding
these two items. IF the issues can’t wait for that a work order should be submitted. (continued on next page)

SUBJECTS DISCUSSED:
• Water accumulating on drive in front of the Clubhouse. Joe explained that the asphalt contractor said driveway drain-
age was functioning the way it was it intended.
• Co-owner observed truck driving up to clubhouse dumpster in early morning and leaving trash. She has pictures that
she will send to Joe.
• Co-owner questioned whether ice cream truck parked in Clubhouse lot could be removed. Joe replied that it is in com-
pliance with existing rules/bylaws. Co-owner may petition the board if she wishes.

6. Old Business:
Discussion regarding the article that will go in the Herald regarding memorial benches. The type of bench was clarified.
Interested co-owners will be instructed to call the Clubhouse for pricing as it varies.

Money is in our budget this year for 2 concrete pads along the Silver Springs walkway between Scenic Lane and the south
end of Crystal Lake Drive (for benches). Locations need to be decided. Several locations were identified last year and will
be shared with members. Members are encouraged to walk the sidewalk and think of where they would like a bench. The
criteria included that it not be in front of a unit, not block a view of a unit and be near shade if possible. Pads will be near
the sidewalk on the east side away from the street. It will be on the agenda in August for a decision.

ADDEDENDUM: No policy is needed regarding the maintenance of plantings on common ground because it already ex-
ists. After the date of this meeting the HLCA by-laws were reviewed on page 22, ARTICLE VI RESTRICTIONS, Section 13.

HIGHLAND LAKES COMMITTEE REPORT
COMMITTEE: Grounds Committee via Zoom MEETING DATE: August 10, 2020
MEMBERS PRESENT: GUESTS PRESENT:
Joel Lutz, Chairperson Richard Wilson Michelle Todorov, Board President
Yvonne Wilson, Chairperson Judy Nakdimen Joe Poma, Property Manager
Sharon Smith, Secretary Denise Hein, Board Liaison
Rosemary Campion
Elaine Anderson

SUBJECTS DISCUSSED:
1. Location of concrete pads for benches along Silver Springs Drive walkway.
Of the three proposed possible locations two were selected. General locations are one near the intersection of Silver Springs
Drive and south end of Crystal Lake Drive and second across from the school. Locations will be marked 1 and 3 with
marker paint. Sharon will let Joe know when they are marked. Expense is in this year's budget. An article appeared in the
August Herald informing co-owners about availability of memorial benches for purchase. It was also suggested that co –
owners be given the opportunity to purchase a plaque for an existing bench if they wish.

2. Co-owner request to plant a memorial tree.


The request is for a tree for former resident Ann Dales near the memorial bench for Hal Forstrom (located between Silver
Spring Lake and Bryn Mawr Court). A Hydrangea Tree would be supplied by co-owners and planted by HLCA staff.
Approved by the committee and will be sent to the Board.

3. Bylaws revision.
Proposed bylaws amendments were sent to members prior to meeting. Amendments were written to simplify the bylaws
and bring them in line with HLCA guidelines and other committees. Amendments were approved for submission to the
Board.

4. Old Business.
It was announced that a contractor has been retained to remove buckthorn on the property and is scheduled for the week
of November 15th. A question was asked about buckthorn removal on the steep bank on the west side of Crystal Lake. Joe
reported that there is a proposal in the works for landscaping that entire bank including removal of all existing vegetation.
Joe shared the proposed plan with the committee. A question was asked about watering and maintaining the site until it is
established.

5. New Business.
A question was asked about a trash can near the Swan Harbor Beach. Joe will check it and report back.
A question was asked about the possibility of the maintenance manager attending Grounds Committee meetings. After
weighing the idea the committee agreed that Joe is the best choice to serve as the liaison for the maintenance staff.
A question was asked about watering at the Eight-Mile entrance. Joe will check it and report back.
Joel will look into shrub removal requests for this year including placing the form in the Herald.

RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE BOARD:


Approve request to plant a memorial tree near the memorial bench for Hal Forstrom.
Approve Grounds Committee bylaws revision.

Spread the J o y!
For those of us who walk around the
lakes at Highland Lakes, especially
Crystal Lake, could feel the joy with
every other step because words of
inspiration accompanying us on our
journey around the Crystal Lake as
you can see from the drawings here
written in chalk.

Also several of Highland Lakers use


the stairway from the lake up to the
hill. While climbing the stairs each step lists a word leading to a joyful phrase all the way to the
top. The last one read.

You have everything you need to make your life amazing


right inside of you! Tune in and create your future
And on top of the stairs, inside a heart
the words read

Feel the love


Unfortunately, after each rain shower
these words of inspirations disappeared.
However. We did not have to wait long and new ones appeared a few
days later. At the time of writing this article we are on our 6th go
around of artistry displayed for our pleasure.

In addition to all the chalk drawings, oftentimes we also found


painted rocks with inspiring words
as well, which disappeared after a
few days or sometimes even
overnight. I am sure these rocks
brought pleasure to some of our
neighbors.
Now, you are probably just as
curious as I was to know who might
be the artist who put so much effort
into the drawings for the benefit of
our residents.

One day a lady was exercising running up and down the stairs and
I asked her “Do you know who the artist is?” Voila, it was her; it is
Kris Szczesny, one of our neighbors. Well, of course I wanted to
know more about her and what motivated her to display her
drawings, her answer was “I just want to spread joy!” which,
especially at this time, is very much appreciated. Since she had recently moved to Highland Lakes,
I would like to take the opportunity to introduce her to you.

16
Welcome Kris Szczesny
“Spread the joy!” a phrase, Kris learned from her stepdad and it has been her mission all her life
and continues to be so since her move to Highland Lakes. Kris was born and grew up in Redford.
In the 6th grade she moved with her family to West Bloomfield. She has also lived in Ann Arbor,
Walled Lake, Livonia, Garden City, and Novi and moved to Aqueduct Court in Highland Lakes in
March 2020. She was briefly married without children. She got her bachelor’s degree from U of
Michigan, Ann Arbor and obtained her teaching certificate and M.Ed from Eastern Michigan
University.

The “spread the joy”


theme was also part
of Kris’ career as an
elementary school
teacher with the
Livonia Public Schools
(LPS) from which she
retired in 2017. She
loved working with
children and helping
them shape their
future. For her retirement from the LPS she gave herself a retirement
present by taking home four fire-bellied toads that she was supposed to kill by freezing them after
she was done teaching about it in her science class, and she just couldn’t do it.

In her retirement, she continues to tutor elementary school children and works as a substitute
teacher. During the pandemic, when school resumes, she will be teaching a group of students in a
basement virtually for a while, to try to maintain a sense of an actual classroom for some kids that
need a semblance of “normalcy” for their education. She also records audiobooks and does some
voice acting. She used to go to downtown Detroit to help with feeding the homeless and ‘spread
the joy’ by hugging the homeless, which she regrets she can’t do right now due to the pandemic.
As a Jaycee, she was focusing on helping and uplifting the world.

Kris has many interests, and enjoys golfing, scrapbooking, reading,


singing, walking, movies,
talking and eating with
friends, playing pool,
rollerblading, painting
rocks, doing chalk
drawings, interacting with
animals, being in nature,
and creating her best life
through meditation.

Since living in Highland Lakes, she has enjoyed meeting people and finds her neighbors pleasant to
talk to. She also enjoys the abundant nature, water aerobics, paddling on and walking around
Crystal Lake.

Some more Trivia, keep learning!

Which country eats the most Kraft Mac & Cheese per capita?
a. United States b. United Kingdom
c. Norway d. Canada

d. Kraft Mac & Cheese is an American-born invention, so you might assume Americans are the largest consumers
of the gooey boxed goodness. But no, our neighbors to the North love it even more than we do. Canadians
consume a whopping 55 percent more Kraft Mac & Cheese per capita than Americans consume, according to a
2015 Global News report. Canadians instead call it Kraft Dinner, and it’s so popular that the Montreal factory
where much of Canada’s supply is made works around the clock to meet demand. Canadian consumers purchase
1.7 million of the 7 million boxes of Kraft sold globally each week — that’s a lot of mac and cheese!

Where is the most remote point on Earth?


a. Easter Island b. Point Nemo
c. North Pole d. Point of No Return

b. Looking to really get off the grid? Welcome to Point Nemo, which gives a whole new meaning to the term
“middle of nowhere.” Officially known as the “the oceanic pole of inaccessibility,” Point Nemo is the oceanic point
that is the farthest from any shore — you may actually be closer to astronauts in the International Space Station
than you are to any human on Earth. Located in the Pacific Ocean, Point Nemo got its name from the Latin word
for “no one,” as well as the fictional sailor from “Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea.” When drifting at Point
Nemo, you are surrounded by well over a thousand oceanic miles in every direction; the closest land masses are
the Easter Islands, the Pitcairn Islands, and an island off the coast of Antarctica. Animals seem to steer clear of it
too — it’s been called “the least biologically active region of the world ocean.”

Where is sticking out your tongue a common greeting?


a. Australia b. Tibet
c. Iceland d. Papa New Guinea

b. Some people shake hands when meeting for the first time, others kiss each other on the cheek, and others still
stick out their tongue. This last greeting happens in Tibet, and there's a good reason for it: Lang Darma, a 9th-
century king remembered as one of the cruelest leaders in Tibetan history, had a black tongue. Because many
Tibetans believe in reincarnation, they began sticking out their tongues when meeting new people to assure them
that they were not Lang Darma reborn. The gesture has evolved as centuries have passed, with some Tibetans
also using it to indicate agreement or even respect.

Aside from Canada or Mexico, which country is closest to the U.S.?
a. Cuba b. Bermuda
c. Russia d. Greenland

c. It may not be close enough for Alaskans to see it from their window, but Russia is quite near to the United
States — closer than any other countries except for the two we share borders with: Canada and Mexico. Those
living in the lower 48 tend to think of Russia, the largest country in the world, as being quite far away, but Big
Diomede Island (which belongs to Russia) is only about 2.5 miles away from Little Diomede Island (which is part of
Alaska). Because the International Date Line also lies between them, it's also 20 hours later on Big Diomede than
it is on Little Diomede — hence their nicknames of Tomorrow Island and Yesterday Island.

What color is the sunset on Mars


a. blue b. red
c. green d. There are no sunsets on Mars

a. A cool blue glow: Unlike Earth’s vibrant orange sunsets and sunrises, Mars sees a blue sun spectacle each night
and morning. On Earth, the atmosphere’s dust and fine particles dissipate blues and greens from the sun, creating
the warm hues we love to photograph come golden hour. (These are the same particles that give us blue skies
during midday.) Mars, on the other hand, is a different story. The fine dust in Mars’ atmosphere scatters warmer
colors, absorbing blue hues for a hauntingly cool sunset. Pair that with a significantly smaller sun — Mars is 141.6
million miles from the sun, while Earth is 94.4 million — and the planet’s small, chilling blue sunset looks
downright apocalyptic. And, this blue twilight glow stays visible for up to two hours after sunset and before
sunrise, a phenomenon caused by significant high-altitude dust. Stargazing is subpar on the Red Planet. With
elements like low light pollution, it may seem like Mars is a dream destination for stargazers, but the planet’s
heavy dust gets in the way. Dust decreases a star’s brightness, dimming it by up to four magnitudes. That means
stars on Mars aren’t as twinkly as you’d think.

How long does it take one drop of water to travel the Mississippi River?
a. 22 hours b. 6 days
c. 3 weeks d. 90 days

d. If you were on a boat, it would take about two weeks to travel the entire Mississippi River. If you were a drop of
water, it would take 90 days. Not for nothing has the 2,340-mile-long body of water loomed large in America's
collective imagination for centuries, from Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" to its continued use
as a line of demarcation ("the finest saloon west of the Mississippi) — it truly is mighty. These days the Great River
Road is nearly as popular, as the route travels through 10 different states as it follows the river's winding path; if
you want to experience the Mississippi but suffer from seasickness, consider a road trip.

GENERAL LOCATION OF SHRUB TO BE REMOVED

co-owner purchase and plant a replacement shrub or some other attractive landscaping.
According to the Co-Owner’s Manual, SHRUB REPLACEMENT policy, Co-owners are

SHRUB REMOVAL
INFORMATION
Because Highland Lakes is 49 years old, many of our
shrubs and bushes are overgrown or are in poor
condition. It has customarily been the practice that,
unless the shrub or bush is dead, the Grounds
Committee will not approve its removal. This policy
has been modified somewhat, to allow for the removal
of overgrown shrubs and bushes or those that are in poor condition.
There are conditions to be met however; these conditions are outlined
on the Shrub Removal Request Form on the other side of this flyer.
The time established for the fall 2020 Shrub Removal Program is during
the weeks of October 19-November 1.
Requests must be submitted to the Grounds Committee NO LATER
THAN October 1, 2020 so that the Committee has ample time to review
the request. The Committee has a mail box in the Clubhouse office. Be
sure the form is completely filled out.
The Association will bear the cost for the removal of the shrub(s) and
recommends that the co-owner purchase and plant a replacement shrub
or some other attractive landscaping. The Association will reimburse you
up to $10 toward a new shrub.
If such removal will necessitate a landscape plan, you must submit that
plan, along with a Grounds Request, indicating what you are putting in
as a replacement and a representative of the Grounds Committee will
inspect the planting. Please be aware that this program will only take
place during one week in October or November, weather permitting.
Please Note: Patio shrubs and bushes are not covered for removal; they are the
Co-Owner’s responsibility. This program only covers the bushes on common grounds.
