Safety and Security
  
The EPHOA has developed the Realtime Security Alert System (RSAS) to quickly communicate potential safety and security-related issues to the residents of Eagle Point. The RSAS enables users to receive SMS text messages or emails related to street names in Eagle Point subdivision, as such notices are published on the website of the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office Dispatch Log (http://shelbyso.com/ or http://dispatchlog.shelbyal.com). The RSAS continuously monitors the ShelbySO Dispatch Log for activity involving street names in Eagle Point subdivision, and automatically sends Alerts via SMS text message to the EPHOA Safety & Security Monitors. The Monitors will immediately assess the content of the Alert and use judgment and established priority guidelines to determine whether to broadcast the Alert to the entire Network. Eagle Point residents may log in at the homepage (http://www.ephoa.org/) and click on the link at the top labeled "ALERTS RSAS" to review terms of use and subscribe to the RSAS.

Two yard sale signs went missing during the evening after last Saturday's (Sept. 28) neighborhood sale.  The large signs were commissioned and purchased by an individual homeowner to advertise "Yard Sale at The Crest" because the area is often overlooked during yard sale day.  They were posted at the intersection of Eagle Point Parkway and Eagle Point Drive (at Golf Course) and in front of Eagle Trace - Talon Lane.  If anyone knows the whereabouts of the signs, please contact Amie at [email protected] or 314.5793, or you can anonomously place them outside of YourOffice on Eagle Point Corporate Drive.  Thank you.

Waste Pro
  
Neighbors –
 
There are several trashcans out today, Monday 10/7/13, in accordance with the letter that was attached to your new trash can from WastePro. 
 
WastePro’s notice incorrectly informed you of a change in service day.  Eagle Point’s service day will CONTINUE to be on TUESDAY.  Please disregard the notice that was attached to the new can and plan for TUESDAY service each week.
  
The HOA sent a notice to all Eagle Pointer subscribers last Monday explaining the confusion and attached a note from WastePro.  That note is below for reference again. 
  
If you have a neighbor who put their can out today please make sure they get the message about TUESDAY service.
  
Again we apologize for the misinformation from WastePro and any inconvenience this may have caused.  Please remember not to put your cans out before 8:00 PM on Monday and to have them put away by 8:00 PM Tuesday.
  
"I would like to apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused during the conversion for the residential waste collection services. The service day for Eagle Point is on Tuesday. Waste Pro will begin services tomorrow, Tuesday October 1. Should you have any questions, you may contact us at (205) 605-0800 or at www.wasteprousa.com."
  
Sincerely,
  
Scott Corley

Property Development

GOOD NEIGHBORS –
  
As you have probably noticed there are several lots in Eagle Point that are actively being improved.  The board needs your help in monitoring these 14 lots in Eagle Point that have recently been purchased by Conner Farmer with Highpointe Properties.
  
Highpointe Properties is doing site prep to these lots with the hope of selling them to a builder to construct new homes.  These lots are located throughout Eagle Point.  Please be observant as you come and go from the neighborhood and let the HOA office know if you see anything that looks out of the ordinary.  Please report equipment blocking roads, run off in the street, broken curbs or signage, etc . . .
  
The HOA has talked to Mr. Farmer several times and he is aware of The Neighborhood Covenants and says he will abide by them.
  
Below are a few photos of the lots and their improvements.  Please email the HOA if you see something that does not look right or if you have any questions about the development and we will try to answer them.
  
Thanks
EPHOA

Brookwood ER on U.S. 280 has clear path after Supreme Court decision
 
NORTH SHELBY — After five years, Brookwood Medical Center has a clear path to open its long-planned freestanding emergency room on U.S. 280. On Oct. 11, the Alabama Supreme Court refused to hear arguments from Trinity Medical Center attorneys against allowing the freestanding ER to open. That Supreme Court refusal effectively exhausted the potential legal challenges against the freestanding ER, according to Brookwood spokesperson Stephen Preston. “This is something we’ve been working on for almost 10 years now,” Preston said. “We look forward to moving forward as quickly as possible on construction.”
