****COUNCILMAN TO VISIT AUTUMN WIND****

Hello Neighbors,

Based on concerns that have been brought up in recent months, and due to the Parish's general lack of response to some of those issues, I requested a meeting with Councilman Arthur Laughlin, who represents District 11, which is where Autumn Wind is located.
In response, Councilman Laughlin has scheduled a meeting with Autumn Wind residents on Saturday, April 26, 2025, at 12pm noon. The meeting will take place at the gazebo located in the green space in the center of our subdivision. Please bring a chair if you wish to sit down.

I've asked the Councilman to address general issues impacting our subdivision such as maintenance of the retention pond on Robert Rd., needed repairs to our streets, drainage concerns, and traffic congestion especially with the new subdivision being built on Hoffman. If there are any other specific topics or issues you wish the Councilman to address, please include them in your comments below. If you cannot attend but wish to have the Councilman address a specific topic or matter of concern, please let us know in the comments as well and I'll be sure to bring it up to him at the meeting.

If you plan to attend the meeting, please let me know below so I can provide the Councilman with a general headcount. Also, if you have a personal concern or matter (meaning something that affects only you or your household and not the subdivision as a whole) please do not use this forum or this meeting to try and have that issue addressed. I would advise that you contact the Councilman directly on such personal concerns and meet with him privately. If you wish to contact the Councilman, here is his information:

Autumn Wind Residents,

Our neighborhood is included in this water service disruption and boil advisory on Tuesday, October 15, 2024.

Oct. 15 Update: GOOD NEWS: tonight’s scheduled water service interruption and related boil water advisory have been cancelled, as our team completed the repairs without impacting our citizens.

*Original Post Follows*

On Tuesday, October 15, 2024 beginning at 9 p.m., the Department of Utilities will shut off water service to customers along LA 59 between I-12 and Hoffman Rd. for a water main repair. Please prepare to be without water service for several hours over the night of October 15.

Once water service is restored, out of an abundance of caution and in accordance with Department of Health and Hospital regulations, a precautionary BOIL ADVISORY will be issued for the affected customers.

If you have any questions, please call the Department of Utilities at (985) 276-6400.

Good morning all!

When you have a chance, olease take a look at the information provided in this link. This is St Tammany Parish’s plan for future transportation (e.g., roads) projects. Once you review the plans you have the ability to submit comments.

Some of these projects have the potential to dramatically alter the current roadways in STP especially in the surrounding areas, so take a look and submit comments.

Hello ,

As you may have noticed, the Parish finally came and removed all the water Lillie’s and other excess vegetation from the pond. I know that in addition to me submitting online requests, a few residents have been calling them as well for a few months now, so glad to see they got it done! WST was also going around and changing out burned-out street lights, so that’s good!

We are also trying to get the lights for the sign on the Robert Rd entrance fixed. We are responsible for the lights so we’re in the process of getting a quote from an electrician. Hopefully we can have it fixed soon.

Things have been relatively quiet in AW which is a good thing. The lights and signs we installed at the gazebo seem to be doing to job. Ever since these were installed, the number of non-residents that were loitering there has been reduced to virtually zero, and there have been no late-night incidents.

Thank you to all who are dues paying members and continue to make it possible to keep our neighborhood clean. Also, thank you to our neighbors that lend their own personal time and effort at no charge to pitch in.

If you’re not a dues paying member we urge you to join to make sure Autumn Wind remains a beautiful neighborhood and safe for years to come. Dues are only $20 per month and they pay for street lights, the power to the entrances, for landscaping the pond and other green areas, and for other expenses like signs at the gazebo.

Don’t forget that you can pay your dues via PayPal. If you prefer to write a check, no problem, just send it to the PO Box. For those of you who prefer to pay annually, I’m asking that you send in your dues in January. This makes it easier to keep track of who’s paid for the year.

Don’t forget to check out our website at www.autumnwind.org

You can sign up for PayPal and you can also review financial reports. Thank you and hope everyone has Merry Christmas!!

On behalf of AWCA,

Ben Banchs

We were asked to share this by one of our residents, Debbie Popoff, who lives at 131 Autumn Wind:

I just wanted to let you know…someone stole my no parking in the grass sign from my yard. The sign was double faced. Two signs on one post. My yard was mowed Thursday, June 15th and it was in place at that time. Friday morning it and the entire post was on was stolen.
