Communication and Tracking

A ticketing and communication-tracking system has been implemented within IT staff and is being expanded for Village communication to expedite response times to residents. Residents are encouraged to submit work orders through the Frontsteps homeowner portal. Electronic submissions are processed faster than paper green sheets. Please do not submit duplicate work orders.

Landscaping and Golf Course Update

Golf course improvements include reseeding bare areas, installing six rotor sprinklers, and treating for grubs. Grub treatment will be scheduled earlier next year. The entire golf course will be closed October 5–9, 2026, for aeration of the greens and fairways.

Please see attachment for September Chemical Application Schedule from Gothic.

Pool, Spa, and Facilities Update

The pool renovation remains on schedule and is expected to take approximately 6–8 weeks. The spa was drained for deep cleaning and is expected to remain closed throughout the pool renovation. New equipment is being installed to improve efficiency and reliability. Management continues exploring temporary swimming access at other facilities.

Concrete and Street Contract Update

The Concrete and Street Contract is underway. The concrete will begin on September 28, 2026, until October 2, 2026. The Street Contract will follow once concrete is completed. If you are impacted, there will be notices in your area or you will receive a notice from City Service Paving.

Public Advocacy

The Village is forming a new Public Advocacy task force to push the County for action on Arundo, flood prevention, and other issues. We could use your help! If you are interested, please send a message to townhall@leisurevallage.org.
