The Twin Isles POA Board has arranged for a 40yd roll off dumpster (22 ft long, 8 ft wide, 8 ft tall) to be placed in the neighborhood starting on May 25th for 30 days.  This is a great opportunity to clean up our yards, houses and garages and be able to dispose of items easily, right here in Twin Isles.

Please take advantage of this and let's head into summer with cleaned up yards and a neighborhood we can all be proud of.

The dumpster will be placed in the empty lot next to Johnny Lay's house at 525 CR 136A.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any of the board members.  Our contact information can be found at our web site twinisles.org.

Joy Schultz providing a pamphlet from the Texas Commission on Environmental Equality providing information on outdoor burning.  You may find this of interest.

The Twin Isles POA Board has written an important letter to Property Owners. Please read this letter located Resource Center.

With spring around the corner, this is a good time to remind our property owners about the importance to our neighborhood of home and yard maintenance. With the burn ban last year, many owners had accumulated piles of brush and yard trimmings that still exist today.  Please put a plan in place to clean up / eliminate any existing brush piles and help with the over all appearance of Twin Isles.

The following information was pulled from the LCRA web site : lcra.org

LCRA will not draw down pass-through lakes in 2012

LCRA will not lower any of the pass-through lakes in 2012 due to the drought. In typical conditions, LCRA would consider drawing down the lakes to help control nuisance plants and to allow lakeside residents to do work on shoreline structures. The pass-through lakes include Austin, Marble Falls, LBJ and Inks.

Twin Isles POA President, Terry Enloe read about this service in the paper and though that Twin Isles POA members might be interested in this service:

In the wake of a recent wildfire, officials are remiinding residents that they can have their home or cell phone numbers listed on the Emergency Notification System used by the Burnet Country Sherriff's Office. 

The ENS is an automated system cued by the Sherriff's Office to notifiy residents of an emergency such as an evacuation during a fire or a boil-water notice.

During the wildfire that destroyed hundreds of ares near residential area north east of Burnet, more than 400 residents wre notified by a phone recording in a matter of minutes.

ENA also lets residents know law enforement is aware of a situation so duplicate calls to report an incident do not backlog the 911 system.

To register phone numbers, visit http;//www.capcog.org/division/hame-land-security. Or call Ed Schaefer at 512.916.6026.
