Dear Ravenswood BOD's and Kyle,

I recently saw advertisements indicating that Lumos Internet will soon be expanding service to our subdivision. Since we are a gated community, I believe we have the right and an opportunity to negotiate with them before they begin laying cables on our property.

Given the access they’ll need to our private roads and infrastructure, we should consider requesting compensation or benefits in exchange for permitting the installation work within the community. Other gated communities have successfully done this, and it could be a potential advantage for our HOA as well.

Could you please look into this and initiate a conversation with Lumos at your earliest convenience?

Best regards,
Laxma Reddy Julakanti,

Hi Kyle,  Any further update on any request from Lumos/T Fiber? Thanks!

At this time, the provider has not contacted the HOA to initiate or coordinate any services for the community. Should they reach out in the future with a formal proposal or request, it will be reviewed in accordance with standard procedures and presented to the Board if appropriate.

 

Thank you,

Dear Kyle and Ravenswood BOD,

I support Laxma’s suggestion and urge the HOA to proactively engage with Lumos and/or TMobile Fiber. Just this week, a T-Mobile rep was knocking on doors with offers for residents to sign the contract. This shows providers are already planning or moving into our neighbourhood.

As a gated community, we have leverage and should engage proactively with providers to negotiate possible benefits before access is granted. Waiting until after they begin work will be a missed opportunity.

Please prioritize this for the advantage of Ravenswood.

Best regards,
Pankaj Patel
