FROM THE THOA OFFICE

Guard and Gardeners Bonus We would like to thank those residents who so generously made contributions towards the guards and gardeners bonuses . The guards work difficult hours , sometimes under difficult circumstances .
Estate WhatsApp Groups The residents created two WhatsApp Groups , the EmergencyInfo- and SpotMarket group . The EmergencyInfo group is for estate related emergencies / notices regarding power and water outages , lost dogs etc . The Spot Market group is to be used for recommendations on services , e . g . handymen , contractors , garden services etc . If you wish to be added to these groups you may contact the THOA office on ( 011 ) 608-0835 or via email . These groups are only intended for those specific uses . If you have any estate related complaints or issues , you can address them to the THOA office on admin @ thoa . co . za .
Road Reserve Issues Complaints have been received from residents living along the Road Reserve with regard to dog excrement being dumped in their rubbish bins and compost heaps . In another incident a resident ’ s dog was bitten by a dog that was off the leash . Although this is permitted along a certain section of the Road Reserve , if your dog is going to bite other dogs we recommend you keep them on their leashes . The dog that was bitten was in the owner ’ s property at the time .
Plans for the new Financial Year Major work will be carried out on the watercourse . Three of the old ponds , which no longer exist , will be restored . This will assist in reducing corrosion that is taking place along the watercourse and will also enhance our section of the river . The Community Centre will also be receiving an upgrade and will be closed during April . Both the kitchen and hall area are being renovated and we are sure that those residents who make use of this venue will be pleasantly surprised when it is completed .
Shopping Centre and Road Development The THOA office has been inundated with questions as to the current development on the shopping centre and changes taking place at our entrance . There is a sub-committee from Thornhill and Lakeside , who are having meetings with both the shopping centre developers and JRA . Once we have more clarity on their exact intentions , a meeting will be arranged with our residents to bring you up to speed .
