Design Review BoardNancy Hudson, ChairpersonRecently the subject of artificial pine straw was reviewed bythe Natural Resource Committee and the Design Review Board.Textraw is a synthetic pine straw made from recycledpolypropylene. During the presentation the representativesstated that Textraw should not be used where there is a wealthof natural pine straw. Tidewater is considered a natural pineforest and is naturally blessed with an abundance of pine straw.Another factor considered was how and where to recycle thesynthetic pine straw. There are products that occasionallycome to light and initially sound enticing, however, thesynthetic pine straw and rubber mulch, although made out ofrecycled materials, leave a lasting impression on our ecologicalfootprint.

After reviewing the pros and cons of Textraw and taking intoaccount the Natural Resource Committee’s recommendation, theDRB disallowed the inclusion of synthetic pine straw to ournatural landscape materials. The DRB Standard states thatlandscaping mulch must be an organic substance, natural incolor. Colored/dyed (red and black) mulch is not permitted.Substances such as rubberized mulch and synthetic pine straware not permitted. Refreshing the mulch in your yard makes abig impact on curb appeal.

Our meetings in May will be on the first and third Mondaysand all applications for tree removals, landscape changes, andhome improvements should be submitted a week prior to themeetings. The Design Review Board is always available toanswer questions via telephone 843-663-3500 or email [email protected]. Thank you for your continuedcooperation and support.

Promotion CommitteeBill Pearson and Flossie ChapmanA year ago while serving on the Nominating Committee itbecame apparent there was a growing problem facing ourcommunity. Resident after resident refused to have their nameconsidered for the three upcoming Board of Directors' openings.A majority of them cited the unfair criticism and personalattacks on current volunteers as their reason. They did not wantto be subjected to that type of behavior.

It was clear that if this trend were to continue it would have asevere impact on the Tidewater we now know. We need tostrengthen our volunteer environment not weaken it as we headtowards the conclusion of the Class B control period. Thanks tothe help of a number of resident contributors, this committeeundertook a six part series of articles to address this serioustrend and attempt to turn it around. This is the final article inthe series.

After studying the problem two things stood out. Thoseresponsible for the unfair criticism and personal attacks did notunderstand the long term damage that resulted to ourcommunity. Neither did those people understand who becamean audience for criticism and attacks or forwarded it on as ajuicy bit of gossip. We tried to paint a picture of what a futureTidewater would be like without any volunteers and our actionswould end up getting us the (community) government wedeserve.

Thoughtful, respectful criticism offered in a friendly tone is ourresponsibility when we disagree with an issue underconsideration by our Board of Directors. Making a point aftergetting all the facts, and remembering that we are all neighborsand in this together is so important. If you get what you want,great. If not, accept the fact that sometimes it just works outthat way. Don’t lose sight of the bigger picture. Tidewater willnot be the same without our volunteers, let’s always respect andsupport those who volunteer. Here is a comment from aTidewater owner:

When my wife and I were looking to buy in Tidewater, she askedif we should look anywhere else. I said, why bother, there is abeach house, pools, tennis courts, golf, clubhouse, and beautifulsurroundings - where could we find anything better than this place.It has it all!

After moving here, we found that Tidewater's biggest asset isits people. People from all across the country and all walks of life.People who are willing to share their best attributes and abilities.People who became true friends, coming together to make this agreat community to live in.

Our community is built on a strong foundation - Our Volunteers- People who give their time and effort to make this a better placefor all of us to live. Spring is coming - let's celebrate with joy, love,and compassion for each other. Be positive - be real - be a resourcefor each other; friends caring and helping each other to make thisa piece of paradise!

Our support for each other will make Tidewater better thanever!Tom Munn

Road Rejuvenation Project

In January, it was reported in the newsletter that the Boardplanned to have the roads throughout the property sealedthis year by Total Asphalt. An article has been in thenewsletter each month advising that this work would starton May 12th. The intent of this newsletter insert is to layout the specific timing for that sealing/rejuvenation project,to define the impact on you as owners, and to ask for yourassistance.

Why Rejuvenate?

The reason for proceeding with this project is to extend thelife of the Association’s streets. The product being usedwill do two things. First, it contains oils that will penetratethe surface of the street and assist in reducing the viscosityof the asphalt, making it more pliable and thus extendingits life. Second, the coal tar component of the sealer willform a surface barrier to prevent water infiltration and slowany deterioration of the road base while filling minor cracksat the same time. This work is being done with theunderstanding that some of the areas with more advanced“alligatoring” (cracking) may fail over several years but thistreatment should slow the rate of deterioration and extendthe useful life of the surface.

Impact on Owners

The first, and most significant, impact on you as ownerswill be the fact that the street leading to and in front ofyour home will be closed for 24 hours. The Boardunderstands that this is an inconvenience, more for somethan others. In evaluating the options for doing the work,it was felt that this approach would ultimately be lessinconvenient than having portions of the same streetspartially closed for several days.

During the day that your street is being treated and closed,the Association will have golf carts available to pick you upand take you home, if necessary. It is our plan to have twocarts available; we are finalizing a plan for getting to eachhome. We will be using road edges and the golf course foraccess and will have to place plywood across some streets(while the sealer is wet) to provide access from one side toanother.

Other items that will impact you on the day of the work onyour street include mail, FedEx or UPS deliveries as well astrash and yard debris pick up. With access to your streetblocked, these items will have to be delivered the following

day or, if you have a priority need, you should makearrangements to have FedEx, or UPS items left at theHOA Administration office. US Mail could be pickedup at the post office late in the day.

Please advise renters of your property of this project.

Your Assistance

There are two primary items where your assistance isneeded. The first is with your sprinkler system. Yoursprinkler system needs to be turned off on both the daybefore and the day of the date that your street isscheduled for treatment. The sealant cannot be putdown on a wet street.

The second item is simply trying to plan your activitiesso we can minimize the use of golf carts. For schedulingpurposes, you need to plan on the road section beingdone each day closing at 7:00 AM and not reopeningagain until at least 7:00 AM the following day.

Finally, during the 24 hour period following theapplication, the roads will be “tacky” and if a vehiclerides on it and then goes on a concrete curb or driveway,it will leave tracks that are virtually impossible toremove (not to mention what could splash on your carthat will also be very hard to have removed). You willalso need to avoid walking on the treated road as shoesoles can also track the product onto driveways and/orinto your home.

Scheduling

The objective of the schedule outlined on the sitecolored plan is to limit the closure of the street in frontof every home to one 24 hour period. As stated before,the sealant cannot be applied to a wet surface, so thisproject is very weather (and sprinkler) dependent. Inthe event of rain on any day during the schedule, thenext day the contractor will move on to the workalready scheduled for that date and then the day lost torain will be picked up on one of the scheduled “makeup” days, or another day as announced. This isintended to try to minimize changes to the schedule. Ifthere is rain during this period it will be particularlyimportant for owners whose work has been delayed tokeep an eye out for announcements regarding therescheduling. The Tidewater website, bulletin boards,and handouts will be used to communicate the newscheduling.


8

Parking & Golf Cart Pick Ups

During the period while the streets are being treated the prohibition of parking on the streets overnight will be lifed.This will allow many owners to park on a street and walk across a fairway or down the road edge to get home. Residentsaffected by the South Island and Harbor Loft closures can park in the Golf Course parking lot across the street from thedriving range and will be transported by golf cart to and from their home. If you need a ride on the day your street isbeing treated, please call 843-997-0289 and arrangements will be made to pick you up.

Project Updates

The Rejuvenation Project status will be updated daily on the Tidewater website under the ‘Bulletin’ section; we willalso be sending out email broadcasts as needed to assure timely dissemination of information. It is very important thatyou review the site daily for the status of the total project, especially if you currently do not receive broadcasts fromTidewater.

Thank You In Advance

As stated before, this project will inconvenience each and every owner, whether it be the result of being reroutedaround the property every day or the day on which you will not be able to drive back to your home. If this projectdid not have real potential to extend the life of the asphalt in the streets and savings for the Association (and thus eachowner) the Board would not be pursuing it. But, understanding there will be inconveniences, the Board would like tothank you in advance for your cooperation and willingness to assist in making the project go as smoothly as possible.

Information Regarding the Rejuvenation Product To Be Used

Using Gas Chromatography and Infrared Spectrometry, Paverx® was formulated to create the best match of closed-ringcompounds that ignite the rejuvenation process. Unlike any other product, Paverx's rejuvenating oils are twice refinedto remove all impurities and concentrate a very narrow range of the most active rejuvenating molecules. This uniqueconcentration of rejuvenating oils stops the oxidation process and changes the molecular composition of the asphaltbinder. This new "Super Binder" stops top-down cracking and heals hairline spider fractures.

This level of rejuvenation is possible because Paverx, unlike seal coats, is designed to penetrate the surface of asphalt.Once it has penetrated, Paverx dramatically reduces the viscosity in the top one-half inch of asphalt while significantlyincreasing ductility.

Paverx's durability is superior. During thermal cycles, it contracts and expands at the same rate as the asphalt. Incomparison, seal coats simply lie on the surface. They undergo a markedly different expansion and contraction rate fromthe asphalt. This eventually leads to cracking, pin-holing, and delamination. Paverx does not suffer from these problems;it becomes an integral part of the asphalt.

We kindly ask for your cooperation and understanding as itcomes to non-golfers using the golf cart paths. For a multitudeof reasons…with safety being the most important…we ask thatresidents and guests do not walk, run, ride bicycles,skateboards, etc. on any golf cart path. It is not only hazardousto the non-golfer…but extremely disrespectful to all golfers andstaff. There are only two Food and Beverage functions scheduledfor May as spring golf season comes to a close. The KentuckyDerby Party will be on Saturday, May 3 and the Dart LeagueAwards Dinner will be on Tuesday, May 20th. In June we willkick-off both the Nine and Dine and the Annual Membersgolf/dinner.
