Maintenance Issue Reports

Back on August 9 I emailed that the Latour gate(s) where squeaking badly. I got a response on the same day that they had been lubricated. It didn't work. I emailed back a few days later to ask for the gates to be rechecked. I don't know if that has been done but the gate(s) are still like fingernails on a chalkboard. Please HELP! I live next to the gates and the squeak is heard in my bedroom and office. That puts us at pretty much 24/7 noise.

At the pickleball courts, near court 4, the gate latch is loose. The part that attaches to the swinging gate has just one screw in it (ie one is missing); the gate post hole appears to be partially stripped so that this screw cannot be tightened. Thank you.

01.02.25 - We are addressing this issue today. Thanks for letting us know!

At the Los Olivos Tennis and Pickleball Pavilion there are light poles for playing after dark. The switch for the lights is in the center shaded area between Pickleball and tennis courts. The cover plate for the light switch is broken and needs to be replaced.

At the corner of California Trail and Chardonnay Lane in Sonoma Village, on the east/lower end, there is a hole in the edge of the asphalt. The hole is small but the void underneath it seems pretty deep. As rain water flows down California Trail, I suspect it flows into that hole. This may start undermining the road at that corner. In fact, it is looking like the asphalt is starting to sink around that hole. I think it would be good to get that hole/void filled in before the heavy rains come. I have attached a picture of the hole.

**** Response from HOA - * Asphalt Company will address this when they are completing the street crack-fill project at the end of October. JW ****

At the Barossa fire (emergency) gate the pedestrian entry door is not working. Several neighbors as well as myself have tried several times over the past week.
Maintenance: Tested the gate reader and found it worked intermediately. Adjusted the antenna and the gate worked as designed. I will advise the landscapers to keep the hedge on the corner trimmed back.

At roughly 8:30 AM the last couple of days, there is the sound of a lot of water flowing under one of the rosemary shrubs in Miwok park. Haven't dug into the dense plant, but I'm guessing it is a drip that blew it's head off or undergrounded hosing since not a lot of water, just the sound of rushing water. I took a photo of which plant it is if you want me to email it to someone. If not, it's near the entrance off of Miwok near the gate (NOT the one off of Chianti). On right side as you enter, roughly 3rd plant in between walkway and gasline sign

At Bordeaux Park, irrigation water is flowing abundantly over the sidewalk and grass and into the drains. Looks like a major leak. Has been going on since at least Sept 14 evening.

At approximately 10:49 am, Sun March 16, ambulance responded to a medical on Latour. Resident witness saw the ambulance could not enter via entry gate, but somehow entered through exit gate. Witness says the ambulance did not have emergency lights on, unknown if they tried an access code

At 7:16pm, I witnessed the right-side exit gate for Latour Gate stick open. At the same time, there was a distinctive beeping sound from the gate system. When a vehicle entered the Latour gate, the stuck gate and the entry gates closed at the same time.

As I have reported before, the pedestrian gate for our Porto neighborhood in Trilogy by the Vineyards, is not closing by itself when pedestrians walk through without expressly closing the gate behind them. If left to swing shut by itself, the gate will often not close. This is not due to wind or any other weather condition. it can happen just as frequently on warm windless sunny days as it can in rainy, windy weather.
Note that I have submitted maintenance requests about this and about the vehicle gates that also do not close quite often. but I have never received any reply or status report for the comfort of my neighbors

Around 9pm, right-side Latour gate was stuck open again until a car left and somehow the gate closed "properly"

Are there plans to put in lights on both sets of stairs in the parking lot? At night they are very dark and it is a safety hazard.

Apparently there is no shower gel in men’s locker room showers, nor has there been for a few days.
