The LPOA Maintenance Department staff is responsible for the day today maintenance of all LPOA common areas (except mowing) and amenities, including clubhouses, boat docks, swim docks, playgrounds, tree trimming, etc.
Whether it is painting street signs or installing rip-rap to curb erosion of our shorelines, our maintenance staff is a dedicated group of guys who enjoy and take pride in their work.
This is evident when we look around our common areas here in Lakewood.
Beginning late 1995 the Maintenance Department also took on another job, after the General Manager and Maintenance Supervisor reviewed the budgeted rip-rap projects for shoreline erosion control.
In the past, this work has been performed by contractors hired to lay the rock.
However, it was determined these projects could be done by the LPOA Maintenance staff more efficiently and cost effectively than to hire a contractor.
During 1996 the LPOA Maintenance Staff rip-rapped a large area of shoreline, installing 900+ tons of rip-rap.
All the projects were completed under budget.
