Neighbors, there is a meeting on Aug 17th at 7:00 regarding the Village Planning Committees interest in adding three new lots across from the health club. From what I understand this may also mean the removal of the playground area that so many children love.
As a resident of Loch Lloyd for 14 years and a father of three, this plan is a great concern. The street along the health club and playground as well as the field across the street are perhaps the only place in the neighborhood where families and children can feel they can play in a safe environment. To keep our Village a vibrant community in the future it is in all of our best interests to promote Loch Lloyd as THE BEST place to live for families with children. Taking the only playground, green space, and "park like" environment we have for the children away would send the wrong message about the direction of our community. Families are the future of Loch Lloyd and we need to be doing more, not less to make (and market) Loch Lloyd as a safe and fun place to live.
In short, we can't let short-term profit be the motivation for removal of such a great (and green) space for our families. This area next to the Health Club and Clock tower has become a central gathering place for all residents. Please support our cause on Aug 17th and let the Planning Committee know that we don't approve of this decision.
If you believe this area should remain as green space and playground, please sign our petition. We can't thank you enough for helping the cause!

The feedback from neighbors has been heavy lately because so many of you share the same fear about losing our playground. I am spending my evenings gathering documentation to challenge the committee on their narrow view of our neighborhood future. This fight is draining but I am not turning back.

The momentum behind this effort has grown beyond what I originally imagined. It is exhausting to fight for this space while balancing everything else but your steady support gives me the grit to keep pushing.

The Planning Committee would be better served on this particular issue if they emphasized quality of life for children in our community rather than being only pecuniarily driven . Indeed, it would be better if they created more green areas, sporting areas and maybe resident gardening plot areas to use to improve the community and marketing vision.
Changing the landscape in this specific area would alterthe essence of Loch Lloyd's "resort" atmosphere as this area lies at the center of our community. I can speak for my entire family that this would not be a welcome change.
Not a resident but golf member. The playground has been part of our children's golf development as they hit balls for some time and then run and play then return to hit more balls. It makes the range experience complete for the whole family. Please keep the playground intact in its current location.
We just took our grandson who was visiting from Austin this week to the playground and he loved it! I cannot imagine a family and lifestyle community such as Loch Lloyd without a playground! Really?! Surely should not even be a consideration. Please do not take it down... :(
This is one of the amenities listed as a draw to loch Lloyd. Removing the playground is not even an option. It's one of the reasons we all pay so much to live here. More energy needs to go toward improving the quality and value of our neighborhood, not toward reducing it. Outraged...
We agree that development needs to be more closely scrutinized and there definitely needs to be more transparency between HOA, Tiehan Group, developers, and Loch Lloyd Residents. How about posting notices of this nature at the front gate so all who may be impacted can be made aware? The north gate remains open despite the agreement at the time the initial development was contemplated and there have been no community meetings as previously promised by the board regarding the push for joint security, infrastructure, etc. w/the north development. If all of these changes are so great for the community, why are there so many unsold homes in the original part of the subdivision? Security, amenities , and property values will continue to be eroded if the residents don't get involved. We would also support a shorter term for HOA positions to encourage others to participate on the board.
See everyone at the meeting on the 17th!

My wife Kelly was the one that worked through all the details and contractors with the HOA & Developer to get the playground put in close to 10 years ago when far fewer children lived in the community.
