dryer vent project

On all streets except for 251, 361 and 381 (these streets are of a different design) we will be double checking how dryers are vented and if they are up to code.

Homeowners have made lots of changes over the years to the dryer vents, and some haven’t done any updates since the units were built in the mid 1970’s. We will be placing notices and Mike will be reaching out so we can gain access to the attic space. If we need to make changes to bring this up to code and make the venting safer, we will do so at that time.

To give perspective. In years past it was ok to vent into the attic or use soft flexible ducting. In 2023 the ducting for dryer must be ridged and vent outside.

The board feels very strongly to assure that dryers are venting correctly. We also highly recommend that you get your dryer ducting cleaned annually.

Community Updates

We have had to spend several thousands of your dollars as Bullrun HOA unclogging sewer pipes. When the pipes were cleaned, we found all kinds of wipes (face/cleaning/baby), washcloth, and even a beach towel. This all leads to backups and issues you really do not want to have in your unit.

Please keep your garage doors closed as well as doors into your garage and homes. We have had people crawl under partially open garage doors and then steal items within. This happens at all hours. Not just at night. We know that people leave things open in the heat. But be aware, you don’t want to be broken into when you leave things open on the day to air out.
As a reminder, the landscape bags should be put out at the end of your street any time on Mondays and before noon on Tuesdays. Our areas look nicer if they are not placed there from Wednesdays thru Sundays. They are usually placed somewhere close to or across from the mailboxes on each street. —Thanks from the Landscape Committee.
Please do not place out garbage cans early and place them back into your garage on Tuesday after they are picked up. We have issues with people going through the cans, as well as racoons and other animals getting into them.

Did you know that if the lid on your garbage can is not fully closed, and is lifted up a bit due to extra garbage beyond the capacity of the garbage can, GSS can charge you for an extra bag of garbage? So if you see Bullrun passing a charge that your unit had onto you, this might be why. If you have an issue with the bill, please contact GSS, as we simply bill out extra charges to the units that received the charge. As a side note, you could also be charged if you place non recyclables in the blue bin.
If you plan on placing out extra garbage or an extra can as you do some extra cleaning, please contact GSS and pre pay for this service as our pickup service is for one can of garbage and one recycling can.
