Deer Run Community Library
Summer is the perfect time to catch up on some reading, and we now have a Community Library box at the Clubhouse to make that just a little easier! Once we have some books available to share, our very own Cindy Beck has agreed to monitor our library. Please feel free to take advantage of this opportunity, as the more people who participate, the more variety our library will have!

Towne Properties Contact Forms
Email from Town Properties, 5/22/23
Good Afternoon, Residents!
Due to our Managers consistently working with moving time frames—in addition to working outside the office with property inspections and meetings—we at Towne Properties have come up with a solution to better serve you. Please see the enclosed attachment for a copy of our new Appointment Form!
If you have an issue you feel cannot be resolved via email or a phone call*, you’ll just want to complete the enclosed attachment and return it to our office via the lockbox to the left of the main door—or, by fax, email, or regular mail. Your Manager and/or Admin will then reach out to you to determine a time for you to stop by our office to discuss your inquiry(ies), if we are incapable of helping you via email or the phone.
When completing your form, please make sure to provide as much information as possible, so that we can help you in the most efficient and effective way. We hope by utilizing this system we are able to save you not only time—but the frustration of potentially arriving at our office when no one from your community is available.
Thank you in advance for adhering to this procedure, in order to allow us to better serve you!
(As always, you will not need an appointment to pick up any kind of key you may need, provided you have previously reached out to your Manager and/or Admin to ensure a key is readily available for you at the front desk.)
*Please keep in mind we have up to 24 business hours to respond to non-emergency inquiries—typically, we run on a much tighter time frame, but there may be times in which we are not able to respond until closer to the 24-hour marker. As a friendly reminder, emergencies consist of issues that either will immediately cause someone harm—or, issues that will immediately economically impact the Association.
If we are able to resolve your issue via a phone call and/or email, we will follow up accordingly to resolve your issue as quickly as possible.

Waste Management Update – New Recycling Procedures
As we are all aware, inflation is affecting everyone, including the Deer Run budget. Due to WM increasing their fees in 2022 and 2023, we decided to do a deep analysis into the costs. Their fees have increased from $32,220 in 2021/2022 to $64,060 in 2023. We have been happy with their services, but this increase has caused some concern. We have checked into other vendors and we still feel WM is best for our community. Also, other communities are doing the same thing to stay within their budgets. Below is the breakdown of the cost:
$39,319.08 Trash Pick-up annually
$24,740.52 Recycling pick-up annually
$64,059.60 for 2023
We were going to send out a survey, but we have discussed with a variety of owners and monitored the weekly recycling. As a result, the Board voted to remove the recycling from your home as of June 1, 2023. You will have one trash container for each home.
In addition, we will be placing a large (8YD) recycling bin at the end of Deer Run cul-de-sac where they store the snow equipment and salt. WM will be picking up the recyclables once a week unless we determine more often is required.
The cost for this recycle container is nominal… $1000/ year for once a week pick up vs $24,740/year! In addition, if an individual owner wants to recycle, they can make arrangements with WM directly for pick up at their house and be billed directly.
John Bertsche will be the point person working with WM and Towne to make this an easy transition. Some people may need to change out their trash bins currently being used. The board is dedicated to reviewing all costs to maintain our community and be good stewards of our financial position. Thank you for your understanding.
More details to follow regarding the transition.
