With overnight lows in the 40s, and with our pool certification having expired on September 12th, our pool season has come to an end.
September’s Baccalaureate
A combination is
Of Crickets – Crows – and Retrospects
And a dissembling Breeze
That hints without assuming –
An Innuendo sear
That makes the Heart put up its Fun
And turn Philosopher.
— Emily Dickinson, September’s Baccalaureate
There has been a communication update from NYSEG: in the event our team is needed for repairs due to Hurricane Lee, they will convene in Liberty, NY tomorrow and anticipate a week-long stay. If they are needed, there will be no work at RRVA until their return.
Today, the subcontractor responsible for trenching arrived to cut, but not excavate Pines Drive in front of Clusters 3+4. Additionally, it’s worth noting that the lights at the “Guard House” will remain illuminated since neither Verizon or MTC draws power from that line.

Recently, at our community Town Hall, I shared that our staff have been subjected to inappropriate behavior from a few homeowners. Unfortunately it has come to our attention that there been other incidents this past week in which a couple of homeowners acted out and were harassing our staff. These homeowners have and will be addressed individually, but I feel it necessary to remind everyone that our team has been advised to walk away from homeowners who are yelling, verbally and/or physically making them feel uncomfortable or behaving erratically. If they feel physically threatened they are encouraged to call the police.
If homeowners have questions or concerns, the appropriate action is to send an email to the RRVA Board of Directors through the office email: office@roxburyrunvillage.com Our staff are working hard for RRVA and should not have to endure this type of treatment.
Thank you.

NYSEG is making good progress today.
The trench from the transformer through Cluster 5 was particularly problematic. Verizon, MTC, fresh water, waste water and electricity all crisscrossed that line.
I understand that a few homes lost electricity for an hour or so today, which was not anticipated.
Tomorrow, they will continue up to the transformer in Cluster 6. The last leg will be Cluster 4 which likely will be next week. I am told that they will bring topsoil and seed in to replant the trenched area.

The crew has pulled wire through most of the pipe and they’re starting to connect to the transformers.
A few issues:
1. The crew is being pulled off of our job Friday to head North to Maine in anticipation of the hurricane disrupting electric service.
2. Power will be cut off to the “Guard House” and the nearby lights for several days while they rewire the area.
3. Power will to certain clusters will be cut temporarily next week, as NYSEG switches those clusters from the old to the new feeder cables.
We will be notified prior to the outage.
