SANTEE VILLAGE ANNUAL PARTY:

You are cordially invited to Santee Village’s Holiday Party on Friday, February 28th at 7:00 PM. Stop by for a drink, good food and great conversation! It’s a great way to meet and connect with your neighbors. All Santee Village residents are welcome. Please RSVP via your evite — or email pphamle@actionlife.com — by February 24th and let us know you will be attending!

PLUMBING REMINDERS:

  • Leaks: Once a month take a good look under your sinks and heat pump to make sure there are no drips. Often drips go unnoticed for days, weeks, or months forming mold and mildew.
  • Clean faucets and showerheads: Use a solution of baking soda and vinegar to prevent sediment buildup. 
  • Kitchen Drain Cleaning: Do not pour grease, cooking oils, and solid materials down the drain. They accumulate in your drain lines, requiring drain cleaning.
  • Garbage Disposal: Be sure to only use the disposal while water is running and keep the water running for 15 seconds afterward. Avoid putting fibrous food wastes down the disposal. Examples of these wastes are potato peels, banana peels, celery, and other wastes that are hard to grind.
  • Toilet: Flushing items other than toilet paper and human waste can cause clogs in your home pipes, community sewer pipes, and water reclamation facilities.  Do NOT flush items such as baby/sanitary wipes, band-aids, dental floss, hair, feminine-care products, medications, disposable diapers, cat litter, chewing gums, cigarette butts, cosmetics, paper towels, etc. These items can lead to backups, expensive plumber services, and clogs that cost thousands of dollars to fix.

The Board met on January 27, 2025 and held an open Organizational Meeting. The following officer positions were appointed: President – Erika Aklufi;  Vice President—Diego Cardoso; Secretary – Leslie Muzio; Treasurer – Amy Yoon; Director-at-Large – Ben Gary.

SANTEE VILLAGE ANNUAL PARTY:

Santee Village’s Annual Party will be on Friday, February 28, from 7 PM until 10 PM—more details to follow. Please save the date; we hope to see you at the party!

NO SMOKING IN COMMON AREAS:

We kindly ask all residents to refrain from smoking in the common areas or disposing of cigarette butts and other trash in these spaces. These actions not only create a fire hazard but may also result in extra cleaning costs for the HOA. We greatly appreciate your cooperation in helping keep our community safe and clean. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

WINTER MAINTENANCE TIPS:

Winter can be a beautiful season but can also bring harsh weather conditions that can impact the safety and upkeep of your unit. Here are some maintenance and safety tasks to consider:

  • Inspect windows and balcony/patio doors for gaps or cracks that could let in cold air. Adding weatherstripping to these doors and caulking windows are affordable but effective heat-saving measures.
  • Have the heating system serviced and air filter replaced to ensure its efficient operation.
  • If you have ceiling fans, be sure to switch the fan blades to run clockwise to push heated air down.
  • Ensure that smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are in good working order.
  • Keep space heaters away from flammable materials and never leave them unattended.
  • Cover bare floors with decorative rugs to help retain heat and keep your feet warm.
