Here are a few pics of the utilities being marked in the value section of the resort. There are multiple techs here doing the marking, so no need to be alarmed if you see them out and about.

Yesterday, Texas Gas Service hosted a Q&A session for the upcoming project. Residents were able to ask questions, view maps and get detailed information about the process.

Please review the Natural Gas Section of our webpage here: https://vpractivities.com/natural-gas-project/ to see what questions were asked and answered.

Friendly reminder for those who live in the Manufactured Home section of the resort…

Texas Gas will be holding and informal Q& A meeting about the project in the ballroom tomorrow at 9am. See original post here:

Texas Gas Project Update

The water and ice machine is back in service. Thank you for your patience while repairs were completed and water quality was ensured.

Attention residents in the Manufactured Home section of the resort!

On Wednesday, April 5th, at 9am in the ballroom, representatives from Texas Gas Service will be on site and will be holding a Q& A Session for the upcoming natural gas project. They will be discussing the project in detail and you will have an opportunity to ask questions.

This project is tentatively scheduled to commence on Monday, April 10th.

A new tab has been created to track all announcements/updates. You can find it here: https://vpractivities.com/natural-gas-project/ or on the top menu of the blog.

Today, Resort Manager Rocky Ramirez met with Spectrum project supervisors to discuss the commencement of the cable internet project in the resort. Preliminary steps were discussed and answers were given to some of the questions that residents submitted.

As we commence this project, here are a few important things that you should know:

• The install will be handled by Spectrum and their subcontractor, Broadband Telecom Services (BTS)
• Workers will be identified by safety vests, ID tags and sometimes hard hats.
• Work vehicles will be identified with logos for Spectrum and BTS
• Work will be conducted between 8am and 5pm, Monday through Friday and possibly some weekends
• The majority of work will be boring underground and will follow the same general path as the current cable plant.

For your safety, we ask that residents refrain from engaging workers during this project and keep a distance from work areas. Please do not occupy empty sites, as we will be providing a report of vacant sites to the work crews for them to park their vehicles and equipment. This should minimize congestion on resort streets.

This first preliminary stage will commence in the value section of the resort, beginning with Sherwood Drive. More details to follow.

Here is a brief video that reflects what the process looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fv6DHAnorU

Congratulations to Jane Auclair and Bert Bilodeau for winning the pickleball gold medal @ the Golden Age Olympics this season!

Thank you for representing Victoria Palms Resort!

We are very excited to announce the Spectrum project will begin on Monday, March 27th!  This upgrade is expected to dramatically improve our internet and high definition TV, both in speed and reliability.

Spectrum will begin preliminary work in the resort, beginning with the installation of power supplies and other major components.  You may see a combination of Spectrum workers, as well as other third-party contractors completing this work. 

Moving forward, we will release more information as it becomes available. We have created a new tab on the blog specifically for this purpose. It can be found here: https://vpractivities.com/spectrum-project/ As updates are posted, a link to this page will be included. Feel free to save it to your Favorites, and check it as often as you prefer.

If you have any questions about this project, please contact the front office or email Rocky Ramirez, Resort Manager at jesus_ramirez@equitylifestyle.com.

Thank you to all who attended and to those who submitted questions in advance. For those who were unable to attend, here is the presentation as it was discussed.

All in all it was a great meeting with lots of information!
