Recently, homeowners in subdivisions around Silverlake have been wondering who is responsible for the repair of sidewalks that have been broken due to weather, growing trees and wear. Jeffrey Moore, MUD #3 Director, responded:
Silverlake HOA is not responsible for the sidewalks within the subdivisions unless it is in a common area. In the past, MUD #3 leveled the sidewalks in Fairway Village I, Ashford Cove and Winfield several years ago before the current drought. Since then, the sidewalks have shifted again throughout Silverlake due to the drought and the multitude of trees that are now maturing and seeking out additional water sources.
MUD #3 is responsible for areas that have man-hole covers or storm drains and has repaired many of these areas over the years. Homeowners are responsible for their sidewalks adjacent to their property lines and driveways.
If you have an issue with a man-hole cover or storm drain on your property, contact your MUD. If you’re in MUD #3, take a picture of the issue and forward it to my attention, jmoore84@comcast.net. We will have the operating company come out, inspect the problem and if warranted, repair the problem. If there is an issue with a Silverlake HOA common area sidewalk, take a picture and forward it along with its location to the Silverlake HOA which can be reached at silverlakehoa@gmail.com. The Silverlake HOA has put money aside in the 2014 budget to start addressing some of the sidewalk issues in the common areas.
If anyone has any additional questions or need any additional information, contact me directly at jmoore84@comcast.net.
