We’re getting close to the 2 inch threshold with a couple more hours of light snow to go. So we’ve decided to plow both driveways and sidewalks today. Dan and his crew will be getting started sometime after 11am today.
Snow Stake Placement
As we adjust to a new snow contractor this year there are some tweaks we would like to make to how we are placing our snow stakes. If you have placed them or are about to, please place them only on one side of the sidewalk. Due to the size of the machine/tires of the equipment that clear the sidewalks, it can be difficult to navigate areas where there are stakes placed on both sides of the sidewalk, especially when the stakes are directly across from each other. So for marking the sidewalks placing them only on one side of the sidewalk is sufficient and preferred. If you find that some of your stakes were recently pulled and placed by your garage, this was done by the contractor to help them navigate your section of sidewalk.
If you have any questions regarding this topic please don’t hesitate to contact the board.
Sincerely, Scott Rentschler
Snow Event 12/25
We have received an inch or so overnight and throughout today. Dan Boswell and crew will be clearing the sidewalks either tonight or tomorrow morning.
2021 assessment notice
Today we are mailing to all Northview residents the 2021 assessment notice and 2021 budget. You may download those documents here.
This year we implemented an online payment option, which you will find at https://salinenorthview.org/paydues. Note that an additional ~$8 processing fee will apply; that fee goes to PayPal, not SNCA. If you prefer to avoid that fee, please complete the info sheet you will receive in the mail and send it back to us with your check or money order. Thank you!
Snow Event Nov 30 – Dec 1
We are monitoring snow amounts for this storm and our snow contractor Boswell Lawn Service is ready to plow if needed. It’s unclear at this point how much will stick due to ground temps.
As a reminder, we will clear snow when there is 1 inch or more on the sidewalks and 2 inches or more on driveways.
Update: Dec 1st – I appears that most of the snow melted and we are left with only a thin coating on sidewalks and driveways. Be safe. Temps in the 40’s the next few days

Mailbox clusters replacement
On Thursday, October 22 we are going to replace the four mailbox clusters closest to the following addresses: 1152 Colony; 716 Foxboro Ct; 947 Wiltshire; and 1061 Heritage. (We have contracted with Pop-A-Lock, who is scheduled to meet with a Post Office rep that day to install the new clusters and get them labeled.) We are replacing the clusters as needed, and are spreading them out over the years to spread out the associated costs.
Board member Sarah Brooks, who has been working hard to make all of this happen, is going to deliver new mailbox keys to those affected homeowners on Wednesday after 7:00 pm. If you are not going to be home then, or would like to make alternate arrangements to get your keys, please either call Sarah directly at (734) 905-9291 or you can email us at bod@salinenorthview.org.
