Lot
Certification
866.589.6639 | 541.595.1529
Update:The
Lot Certification Office has mailed out information on
how to certify their lot to the standards of Senate Bill
360 to each homeowner. The State of Oregon and the BBR
Board of Directors require compliance with these
standards and certification to the Oregon Department of
Forestry that each lot meets those standards. Volunteer
BBR homeowners have been trained by the State of Oregon
to assist other homeowners in assessing their lots for
compliance. The Lot Certification Office coordinates
these volunteers. The Office has begun to receive
completed request forms from homeowners for a volunteer
assessment. The Office will begin to dispatch the
volunteer assessors on May
1.
Meanwhile,
the State of Oregon Department of Forestry is completing
the final testing of a new computerized database of lots
at BBR. They advise that the new database should be
completed and operational in
mid-May. |

2008 RESORT CUP
The
annual competition between Black Butte Ranch, Eagle
Crest, Widgi Creek and Sunriver kicks off on Tuesday,
May 13 at Big Meadow. We need 10
players with both high and low handicaps to represent
BBR. It is a shotgun start at 8:24AM.
Last year
we finished second, but had it not been for our fire
evacuation, we likely would have won the trophy. We were
forced to play short handed at Widgi Creek so we
couldn't throw out our worst score.
If you
are interested in playing on May 13, please email Bill
Carson. In the past we have had a qualifier,
but this year the plan is to reward those who want to
participate. We will select a team based on interest and
by lot if we have more than 10 sign up. Marv Hoff will
Captain the team, so let us know as soon as you decide
if you would like to participate, so we can let everyone
know who will be playing.
See You
on the
Green.......... |
