The 2021 SWRA Annual Meeting was held at the Church of The Living Waters on March 6th.
Attendance was good considering the COVID 19 restrictions. Several good questions were asked
by property owners. The annual meeting report is available at the SWRA web site
www.stillwatersra.com. SWRA would like to thank the COLW Board for allowing the annual
meeting to be held at the church; this allowed more people to attend the meeting and practice
social distancing.
The quarterly General Manager Townhall Meeting will be held at the Church of The Living
Waters on Saturday, April 17 beginning at 10am. This informal meeting gives owners an
opportunity to ask the General Manager questions and have discussions concerning StillWaters
Residential Association. This meeting will include a brief presentation from Point Broadband
about their plans to bring fiber optic internet service to StillWaters. Christine Glenn with East
Alabama Health is also scheduled to present information about the new medical clinic located
adjacent to the Hwy 49 entrance gate. We hope you make every effort to attend this informative
meeting.
There is a QR code located on page of this newsletter that owners can scan with their cell phone
to complete a survey for Point Broadband. Please consider taking this brief survey. This survey
will help Point Broadband determine if it will be feasible for them to install high speed fiber optic
in StillWaters. We are asking all owners to take this survey, even if you are not sure you need high
speed fiber optic internet service.
Real estate sales continue to be very strong in StillWaters. Realtors have indicated to SWRA that
the demand is high and the inventory is low. Realtors and potential buyers frequently visit the
SWRA office in search of vacant lots to build a house. Now is the time owners who have been
holding onto vacant lots should consider selling. Contact a local realtor if you are interested in
selling your vacant lot while the market is still strong.
Most of the repair parts for the waterfall at the Hwy 49 entrance have arrived. We are still waiting
on a few parts that are on back order. As soon as all repair parts arrive and can be installed, the
waterfall will be turned back on. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we have
waited on the parts to be shipped.
2021 vehicle window decals must be displayed in the driver’s side front windshield to gain access
to StillWaters without having to stop at the entrance gate. Gate attendants will open the entrance
gate without delay to vehicles displaying the 2021 StillWaters window decal. All vehicles that do
not display the window decal will be required to stop at the entrance gate and provide the gate
attendant their name, destination, and their tag number will be recorded. Additional window
decals are available at the SWRA office to owners in good standing with SWRA.
Alabama Governor Ivey has indicated that she will remove the mask mandate for businesses after
April 9th. SWRA will continue to require a mask to enter the SWRA office until all personnel
have been vaccinated. Due to the small size of the SWRA office, the office staff will continue to
only allow one property owner at a time into the office until further notice.
Lake Martin should be at full pool by mid-April, days are getting warmer and longer, trees and
flowers are almost in full bloom. Soon our community will shake of the last signs of winter and
the new lake season will have arrived. There is no other place like StillWaters.
Kevin Eason, General Manager
