Property Manager’s Corner
by Mary Makitalo
Use these tips
to help save energy
around the home
during the summer
months:
Set thermostats to
78° - For every two
degrees you increase
your thermostat you
could reduce your
cooling costs by
about five percent.
Cool with fans - Electric fans use less
energy than air conditioning units and offer good air circulation and cooling. Using
a fan with air conditioning helps spread
cooled air more effectively through the
house
Use your appliances during “off-peak”
hours - Using major appliances, such as
dishwashers, clothes washers and dryers,
electric ranges and air conditioners, at offpeak hours can dramatically reduce the
demands on the state’s electrical power
reserves.
Plant trees and shrubs near your air
conditioning unit. Be careful not to block
the airflow. A shaded unit can save as
much as 10 percent less electricity.
Clean refrigerator coils at least once a
year. Make sure there is a space between
the wall and the unit so the refrigerator
gets air to cool the compressor.
Use energy efficient light bulbs. They
last longer and use less energy.
Close drapes to keep out the hot daytime sun. Sunny windows make air conditioners work two to three times harder.
Change air conditioner filters regularly.
Dirty filters cause air conditioning systems to work harder than necessary and
use more energy.
Delay laundry and dishwasher chores
until night. This will reduce demand on
your air conditioner and your local electric
system.
Prepare meals that don’t require the
oven or stove. Save energy and keep your
house cooler at the same time!

Editor’s Note:
All residents should have received notification that Liddiard Management Company is going through some changes.
RealManage, a well-capitalized venture-backed company, has invested in
LMC.
As of July 5, 2005, LMC will be operating under the name RealManage, but will
still provide the same high level of service--with the same staff and same office-our clients have come to expect.
This new arrangement will enable your property management team to provide
a higher level of service that will better meet your needs.

City Notices
Bandit Sign Crackdown
The City of Round Rock will be aggressively
enforcing the ordinance that prohibits “bandit signs” from being placed along arterial
roads in the coming weeks and months. City
law prohibits signs from being placed in the
public right of way because they make the
community unsightly, create traffic safety
problems by obstructing the field of vision
and create nuisances for nearby properties.
The public right-of-way includes the shoulders of roads, the area between the sidewalk
and the street, and light poles. Those posters on light poles and signs by the side of
the road advertising weight loss products,
babysitting, windshield repair and garage
sales are illegal! The crackdown should be
especially noticeable on weekends, as city
code enforcement officers have begun working staggered shifts, which means they’ll be
out and about on Saturdays and Sundays.
Summer Concert Series
Round Rock Parks and Recreation and La
Frontera are kicking off the fourth year of
Sendero Springs HOA Newsletter
free summer concerts at La Frontera’s Central Green (intersection Sundance Pkwy and
La Frontera Blvd). The concerts are from
7:30 to 9:30 p.m. on the third Sunday of the
month. Bring a picnic, blanket and the family and enjoy the free concert. The bands will
be available afterwards to sign CD’s and Tshirts. The next scheduled concert is on July
17. Visit the City’s web site for more information. http://ci.round-rock.tx.us/parksrec/concert_series.html
Watering calendar for summer
The City of Round Rock encourages citizens
to follow the five-day watering calendar on
the City’s web site at http://www.ci.roundrock.tx.us/public-works/wtrclndr.html.
This program helps spread out the amount
of water used daily and minimizes the demand on the water system.
5K for Clay
The Clay Madsen Recreation Center will hold
the second annual 5K for Clay fun run/walk
to benefit the Rec Center at 8 a.m. Saturday,
August 27. Cost for adults is $15 through
August 19 and $25 on race day. Children
are $10 through August 19 and $20 on race
day.
