NEWSLETTER DEADLINE: submittals to Dave Ellis ([email protected]) by the 20th of each month Williamsburg Settlement | May 2021 3 2021 POOL SEASON In anticipation of an improving Corona virus situation and consistent with Governor Abbot’s rescinding of capacity limitations, when the pool opens on May 1st the pool operating procedures will be more relaxed than they were last year. The 50 person maximum capacity in the pool area will be removed and the pool furniture will be out on the pool deck again. However, everyone entering the pool area must still have signed a liability waiver, which will be a prerequisite for obtaining pool tags. Social distancing between everyone who is not in the same household should be respected and masks are recommended for those on the pool deck. Residents will have the responsibility for sanitizing all items of furniture they use both before and after their use using sanitizing supplies that will be provided. Please read and familiarize yourselves with information posted on the Swimming Pool page of our website. In addition to listing all the dates that the pool will be open it provides details of how to sign a waiver and obtain pool tags as well as the handling of guests and pool parties. The revised pool party rules are also included later in this newsletter. Again this year our pool will be managed by A-Beautiful. We are looking forward to another great season and we invite all our residents to take advantage of our beautiful pool and looking forward to seeing you poolside!

His company worked on the 2021 Inauguration for President Biden. Matthew 24 lives in Hockley and works for Reynolds and Reynolds as a marketing analyst. Chris retired from Conoco Phillips in 2018.
