Dear Residents, 

We would like to inform you of an upcoming major paving project scheduled to begin June 16th and expected to conclude by July 3rd,weather permitting.

The scope of work will entail milling off the top layer of asphalt (mill) and replacing with new asphalt (overlay). 

The following neighborhoods will be affected:

Whispering Marsh

Deer Walk

Dunes Mill

Ayers Plantation (from Harpers Ferry Way to River Vista Way)

Harpers Ferry Way (limited area for repair)

We appreciate your patience as this important work is completed. Additional communications with more detailed information and timelines will be sent directly to the neighborhoods affected as soon as they become available.

Please be mindful of traffic control flaggers, drive cautiously near work zones, and prepare for temporary access delays during the paving process.

Thank you for your cooperation as we continue to invest in the long-term care of our community infrastructure.

Sincerely,

Illegal Deer Poaching

Dear Neighbors,

There have been several incidents of deer having been shot either with archery or firearms.  We can’t be certain that all of these acts were committed within Dunes West, but believe it is likely they have.  Some have been seen alive, most have been deceased. 

Regardless of the reason someone would have for committing these acts, there is no justification for doing so and the discharge of a firearm, bow, crossbow or any other weapon is against the law.  All of the incidents are being investigated by the Mount Pleasant Police Department and the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources as appropriate. While the Dunes West Property Owners Association is not a law enforcement agency, we, as the Board of Directors, are committed to identifying the perpetrator(s) and bringing them to justice and will assist law enforcement and SCDNR in any ongoing investigation.

This is not an effort that the management staff or the Board can perform in isolation. It is imperative that residents be vigilant and document and report any suspicious activity. Attached to this communication is a diagram instructing what actions you should take under various conditions should you find a dead or injured deer. It is intended to establish a collaborative effort with owners so that we can either persuade any potential owners or their guests who are committing these acts to cease immediately, or, if the applicable law enforcement agencies are able identify and charge a suspect(s), ensure that justice is served.

Please see attached document here: https://duneswestpoa.com/documents/deer-protocol/

Thank you in advance for your interest in helping us cause these incidents to cease.   

The Dunes West Board of Directors
