water companies owned by Home Owner Associations in California servicing from less than 1,000 property owners to as many as 10,000 property owners. The Tahoe Keys Water Company (TKWC) is a privately owned, unincumbered, non-profit mutual water company owned by the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA) members servicing about 1,528 property owners and four commercial accounts. In 2020 the TKWC produced over 340 million gallons of water for the year. 305 million gallons were produced from May through October which is our peak season. During this 6-month period the 305 million gallons we produced would equate to approximately 33,000 gallons per month, per household. If we were to average 340 million gallons produced over the entire year, this would equate to 18,000 gallons per month, per household. The water industry estimates that an average person uses 3,000 gallons CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Pain in the Patella For those who love winter, the only thing worse than bad snow, is a bad knee. Unfortunately, many winter sports put significant stress on the knee and kneecap which can lead to pain and shorter ski or snowboard days. Stress on top of the knee around the kneecap, or patella, is called patellofemoral syndrome or chondromalacia. Chondromalacia is a common condition and can be hard to live with. The kneecap can get aggravated walking up and down hills or stairs, or from sitting for long periods of time. Even certain warm up exercises with deep knee bends, such as low squats or lunges, can cause pain in the knee. Keys Breeze

How does this happen? Cartilage behind the kneecap is thick and when the knee bends, the kneecap slides along the end of the femur (thighbone). Normally the friction between the knee and femur is very low, less than two pieces of ice rubbing together. The thick cartilage and minimal friction help protect the patella against everyday stresses. But this stress adds up over time. When walking on a level surface, the pressure on the kneecap is 1.8 times your body weight. Walking upstairs is 3.5 times and downstairs is 5 times your body weight. Pressure on the knees from running or jumping can exceed 10 times your body weight. If you’re over 30 and don’t currently have any knee pain, be sure to say “thank you” to your knees! The good news is chondromalacia rarely requires surgical management. It can often be resolved with activity modification, anti-inflammatory medication as needed and physical therapy. Activity modification simply means to slow down. Anti-inflammatory medication, such as Ibuprofen or Naproxen, can be helpful for decreasing pain. Physical therapy can range from working one-on-one with a physical therapist several times a week to simply following a home exercise program on your own. Some knee exercises you can try at home to improve strength and decrease pain are available at bartonhealth.org/patellaexercises. Though you may not need surgery, the longer you aggravate your knee, the longer it will be sore, and the longer you will limit your fun. While chondromalacia is a common cause of anterior knee pain, there are other causes as well. If pain in the knee or kneecap persists or worsens, do not hesitate to consult a physician.

of water monthly, so a family of four would use 12,000 gallons for bathing, cooking, washing, recreation and watering. Water is quickly becoming a valuable commodity, in fact, Wall Street has started trading water as a commodity like gold and oil. On December 7th, 2020, the Country’s first water market was launched on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange with 1.1 billion dollars in contracts tied to water prices in California. The TKPOA property owners have enjoyed being shielded from the increasing costs of water for many years, paying possibly some of the lowest prices per volume used. While most communities pay for water by the gallon, or cubic foot, and a monthly connection or service fee, the TKPOA property owners pay a flat $183 quarterly assessment regardless of how much water used by individual households. Curiosity begs to question, “What would TKPOA property owners be paying if we were getting our water from South Tahoe Public Utility District?” Using STPUD’s published rate calculator and their current rate structure, the average quarterly bill for 18,000 gallons per month would be approximately $366.52, however during the peak spring and summer months, when the usage is much higher, the average quarterly billing during these quarters would be much higher. The TKWC like all utilities require a certain amount of investment to maintain the infrastructure, retain qualified and required personnel, and in many cases, upgrading treatment processes for changing conditions in the source water. In the past,the TKPOA property owners have enjoyed a minimal cost for owning their own utility, however the infrastructure is over 50-years old and starting to deteriorate, equipment is beginning to feel its age, and Mother Nature is releasing harmful elements Keys Breeze

such as Uranium and Arsenic into our source water. Not forgetting to mention, man-made contaminates such as Perchloroethylene (PCE) which we have been contending with for decades. The TKWC is required to have a 30-year Reserve Plan to address our aging infrastructure and it is updated and revised every year. The TKWC in our letter dated December 23rd, 2020, briefly outlined the status of the three TKPOA Wells, currently Well #2 is still completely off-line due to high Uranium levels after the Granular-Activated-Carbon (GAC) filters. Well #2 is capable of pumping in excess of 2,000 gallons-per-minute (GPM) but is restricted to less than 550 GPM due to the flow through the two GAC filters. Well #3 has tested slightly above the Maximum-Contaminate-Level (MCL) for Uranium three consecutive quarters, and in compliance with the “Compositing Rule (40 CFR 141.26(4))” if the next quarterly sample tests in excess of the 30 parts-perbillion (ppb), TKWC will be in violation of exceeding the MCL for Uranium. This explanation for Well #3’s status may sound confusing and it is, but to clarify, when testing for radionuclides (Gross Alpha, Radium, and Uranium) compliance will be determined by the “Average Analytical Results (AAR)” of four consecutive, quarterly tests in one year. If the sum of these four tests divided by four is greater than the MCL (30 ppb) the water purveyor is in violation of the MCL. Well #3 is capable of pumping slightly in excess of 2,000 GPM and is currently operating as our secondary water source if needed to keep up with demand. Well #1 has tested, in our latest sampling, slightly above 23 ppb (MCL 30ppb) for Uranium, up from the previous 17 ppb, and is operating as our primary water source. Well #1 is capable of pumping slightly over MARCH 2021

1,000 GPM which should be adequate for the winter months of 2021. It is important to note the maximum volume of water each pump is capable of pumping is not the actual volume maintained by the TKWC. To mitigate leaks caused by higher pressures used to move larger volumes of water through the aging Distribution System the TKWC maintains a system pressure of 48–53 pounds per square inch (PSI) which means we are using our pumps at slightly over half their rated capacities. An additional backup to TKWC Wells is an inter-tie with STPUD which is approved by our State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) permit to provide up to 478 GPM in case of emergency. However, this inter-tie is solely owned and operated by STPUD. The TKWC is optimistically confident we will be able to provide sufficient amounts of safe water to meet the demand through the winter months of 2021, however the summer months are a different story. If you recall last summer when we lost Well #3 for a short time and had to issue a “Boil Water” mandate because we lost pressure in the system, even with Well #1 pumping at maximum capacity and Well #2 pumping 550 GPM. If in April when we draw our 4th sample for testing on Well #3 and we are over the 30 ppb for Uranium we may find ourselves in a similar situation and we will not have Well #2 to supplement Well #1. The TKPOA Board of Directors, the TKPOA Management Staff, and the TKWC are taking aggressive actions to get in front of these circumstances. The TKWC is working with STPUD engineers to test the inter-tie and possibly increase the volume of water we can get from STPUD. STPUD engineers are working with models to determine if they can divert additional water to supplement our demands. The TKWC is in communications with Lukin Brothers Water Company to determine the feasibility of an inter-tie with their Company. The TKPOA Board of Directors and TKPOA Management put out a Request for Proposals to qualified Engineering Firms to propose a short-term plan and long-term plan to address the contamination issues. As of the publication of this article The TKPOA Board of Directors may have selected an engineering firm and they are evaluating feasible short-term solutions to get us through the summer demands. The TKWC is in regular communications with the SWRCB, working with the selected engineering firm and STPUD, and doing our best to keep the TKPOA members informed while providing Keys Breeze

safe reliable water to our customers. We will be soliciting the TKPOA property owners to help conserve water during peak demands by limiting the use of their irrigation systems. As mentioned before, last summer when we lost Well #3 for that short period of time, TKWC estimated we were dumping in excess of 1500 GPM of the water from Well #1 & #2 on the ground irrigating the common areas, the Coves, and private residences simultaneously. The TKWC would like to remind everyone, the MCL is the threshold the Federal and State experts have determined is the maximum level of a particular contaminate which can be consumed before presenting a risk to public health. So, the big question is, “Is the water safe to drink?” YES, the TKPOA Board of Directors, the TKPOA Management, and the TKWC personnel are committed to providing safe, reliable water to the TKPOA property owners. For any additional questions contact TKWC at (530) 542-6451, or for water emergencies call US 24/7 at (530) 318-4268.

the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA) has completed over three years of monthly publications with our current publisher Kathy Hess-Slocum of Just Imagine Marketing and Design. I would like to thank TKPOA staff members, TKPOA Board members, Kathy Hess-Slocum, and her team for all of their hard work, writing, and editing each issue. This effort has provided the monthly Keys Breeze magazine to the 1,528 property owners free of charge for the past three years. I have personally received very positive and insightful feedback from many TKPOA members. Many comments they now read the Keys Breeze cover to cover. If you miss an issue you can always catch up online via our TKPOA website: www.TKPOA.com, where each monthly issue of the Keys Breeze is posted in digital format. The monthly Keys Breeze publication is printed on recycled paper with soy-based ink and has been for the past 10 years. As our Publishing Disclosure Notice (that is located on the second page of each publication) states: The Keys Breeze is the official monthly publication of the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA), which is located at 356 Ala Wai Blvd, South Lake Tahoe CA 96150. Each membership parcel receives on subscription to a domestic address. Cost to produce and distribute this publication is offset by advertising revenues and budgeted funds.

Energy Conservation Tips
All of this extra time at home increases energy demands and can significantly impact your bill. But, even with an increased need for electricity, there are actions you can take to keep your usage and cost down. No-cost tips to save on your electric bill • Turn off lights and appliances when not in use, including your computer. • Use space heaters sparingly because space heaters use a lot of electricity. • Set the thermostat to 68° when home, and don’t use excess heat or cooling when not at home. • In the winter, open window coverings on the sunny side of your home to take advantage of free heat from the sun. Close the coverings on cloudy days or right after the sun sets. Conversely, in the summer,

close window coverings to reduce solar heating.
• Set your water heater to 120°. • Vacuum your refrigerator coils, underneath and in
the back. They need air space to work properly. • Close foundation vents in the winter months to keep cold air out of your crawl space. Low-cost tips to save on your electric bill • Use LED light bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs. • Caulk windows and weather-strip doors. • Install a hot water heater blanket. • Install hot water pipe insulation. • Install electrical outlet and switch plate insulation. • Clean your furnace system and check ducts for leaks. • Replace furnace and air conditioner filters monthly. • Replace normal thermostats with programmable thermostats. Additional ways to save
• Use natural light as much as possible. • Turn on the energy-saver switch on the dishwasher. • Wash only full loads in dishwasher and clothes • • • • •
washer. Wash laundry with warm or cold water. Use your lowest dryer setting. Take a shower, not a bath. Take shorter showers. Keep furniture away from heating/air conditioning vents.

Electric Vehicle Charging
The market for electric vehicles continues to expand with many new and improved models coming to market this year. The lack of electric four-wheel or all-wheel drive options has long been a challenge for the greater Lake Tahoe region. However, this is changing quickly with the advent of electric vehicles available in dual motor or all-wheel drive in 2021, all offering well over 200 miles of range on a full charge. Liberty is working hard to increase charging infrastructure all over its service territory, including supporting an award-winning project with the Tahoe Transportation District and Lake Tahoe Community College, providing infrastructure for electric bus chargers. For those looking to install a charger in their home or small business, Liberty will be opening the application process in March for rebates up to $1,500 for residential

To clarify in the last three years the Keys Breeze publication has “paid for itself” as it has done so in the past three, years and many of the previous years. Through the advertisers the Keys Breeze is published monthly to all TKPOA Property Owners free of charge. There are no line item expenses in the TKPOA Budget for the Keys Breeze production. The only cost to the TKPOA is the TKPOA staff, and Board members personal time in writing the articles and occasionally the cost for a special photograph, layout, or artwork, which is minimal. The Keys Breeze publication meets the requirements of a California Homeowners Association for a Common Interest Development “Official Communication” method to its members; especially now that we have accomplished the monthly publication of the Keys Breeze. The Davis-Stirling Act Civil Code §4040 and §4045 and §4050 indicates Association documents shall be delivered by one or more FOR ADVERTISING of the following methods: Owners Assoc 356 Ala Wai Boulevard iation South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150 Tahoe Keys

For the purposes of this section, an unrecorded provision of the governing documents providing for a particular method of delivery does not constitute agreement by a member of the association to that method of delivery. The Keys Breeze publication also meets the standards of the Corporations Code §5016. Notices and Reports Via Newsletters, that applies to California Homeowners Association for a Common Interest Development. Code §5016: A notice or report mailed or delivered as part of a newsletter, magazine or other organ regularly sent to members shall constitute written notice or report pursuant to this division when addressed and mailed or delivered to the member, or in the case of members who are residents of the same household and who have the same address on the books of the corporation, when addressed and mailed or delivered to one of such members, at the address appearing on the books of the corporation. In meeting these “Official Communication” requirements, TKPOA has utilized the Keys Breeze for Civil Code §4360. Notice and Approval of Rule Change by Board of Directors. Ideally this method would be utilized for limited rule changes of no more than a page of copy. In doing so, the TKPOA can save money on mailing and staff costs to prepare rules change mailings. Based on ongoing updating and adding to our rules, the TKPOA Board of Directors, Architectural Control Committee (ACC) and TKPOA community members are all looking to improve the Tahoe Keys for all of its members. Not only to improve safety, but to maintain costs of operating the Association as well as maintain your property values.

THE
ARE IN By Keiron McCammon, Treasurer FIRST, A BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE who took the time to complete the member survey. We
got 697 responses; that’s forty-five percent of our 1,528 homeowners, nearly three times the number that responded to our last survey back in 2014. Analyzing the responses, it seems like we got a pretty representative sampling of homeowners: • There are 1193 (78%) single-family homeowners versus 335 (22%) townhome/cove homeowners in the Keys. The survey had a 77%/23% split between single-family versus townhome/cove homeowners, pretty much bang on. • Based on our membership list, 379 (25%) homeowners have a South Lake Tahoe postal address (PO Box or otherwise) indicative of being a full-time resident. The survey had a 69%/27% split between second-home owners versus full-time residents, again, bang on. • And we had a good sampling of responses across all of the streets that comprise the Tahoe Keys. Not too surprisingly, Venice Dr. and Ala Wai Blvd. dominated with 112 and 98 responses, respectively. Still, Christie Dr., Tahoe Keys Blvd., Kokanee Way, Inverness Dr., and Aloha Dr. each had between 25 and 42 responses. Every street had at least two responses.

Now, onto the results.
People have lived here for quite some time; 50% of respondents have owned and/or lived in the Keys for fifteen or more years:
How long have you owned a property in the Tahoe Keys?
And of the 476 second-home owners that answered, 89% spend at least one month a year here, with 38% spending four or more months of the year here:
In total, how much of the year do you typically reside at your home in the Tahoe Keys?
Keys Breeze

MARCH 2021

No surprise that summer is a particularly popular time to visit for second-home owners, though most stay throughout the year:
What time of the year do you typically stay at your home?
Moving on from second-home owners, 689 respondents answered whether their property had its own dock, 601 (87%) of these said yes. Of those, the vast majority either have no boat or moor just one boat at their dock:
How many motorized boats are typically moored at your dock?
If you said you had a dock, we were interested in whether you rented out any moorings, 71 (12%) homeowners indicated that they did.
It probably comes as no surprise that being on the water and boating access to the lake are the best aspects of owning/ living in the Tahoe Keys:
What are the best aspects of owning/living in the Tahoe Keys? Our well-maintained amenities and facilities and the attractiveness of the neighborhood rounded out the top four. Over 60 respondents commented about what they love about living/owning here; location and views was a common theme, along with the activities one can do in and around Tahoe.

Also, no surprise that the invasive weeds and algae top the list of the worst aspects of owning/living in the Keys. The quarterly assessment fees, vacation home rentals, and the architectural rules and their enforcement rounded out the top four:
What are the worst aspects of owning/living in the Tahoe Keys? As an aside, some homeowners had expressed a concern that the canned options to these questions were of a “leading” nature. I’d like to think that the options were equally leading for both positive and negative aspects of living/owning in the Keys. Also, the options were randomized for each respondent to avoid any bias caused by one option always being first in the list. Just asking for free format responses to questions like these makes it very hard to analyze the responses, hence the canned options. But, don’t worry, the Board of Directors are reading all the open comments that were left as well. On that front, we got more comments (143) regarding the worst aspects of living/owning in the Keys compared to the best aspects. These comments were quite wide-ranging, but two key themes popped out. The first was related to frustrations about the association rules and/or fees. The second, interestingly, related to issues or concerns arising from homeowners that rent their docks. You’ll be able to read more about these themes when we publish the complete summary (more on that later). Looking towards our staff and services, our various departments rated between 3.0 and 3.9 on average out of 5.0. So the sentiment trended neutral to agreeing that our staff met or exceeded expectations. The front desk staff and indoor pool attendants ranked best with our Architectural Control Department and water quality weed harvesting/skimming fairing worst:
Do you feel the following services or staff meet or exceed your expectations as a homeowner? Keys Breeze

Concerning our amenities, they were rated between 3.2 and 3.9 out of 5.0; overall, respondents felt our amenities were average to above average. Our indoor pool rated the best, and no surprise, our Pavilion building placed at the bottom. Interestingly, the Lighthouse Shores access and beach ranked the worst; I’m curious to hear what people think we can improve there:
How would you rate the quality of the following amenities? And while many respondents (44%) were neutral as to whether things have improved over the last five years, nearly as many (43%) either agreed or strongly agreed that they had:
Do you feel that overall the Tahoe Keys have improved over the last five years?
That’s all for now; next month, I’ll dig into more of the survey results about what people think can be improved and how they feel about our association rules and fees. The Board of Directors takes all of your responses very seriously. Over the coming months, we will be making our conclusions and deciding upon the actions we want to take and the direction we want to set moving forward based on this feedback. Our desire is to discuss this openly during upcoming Regular Board Meetings. We plan to share a complete summary of the survey results with homeowners through the Keys Breeze publication and TKPOA website, so stay tuned; there is more to come. If you have any questions or concerns, you can email me at keiron@mccammon.me.

ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL APPLICATION SUBMITTAL PROCESS By Linda Callahan ALL EXTERIOR IMPROVEMENTS to your property must be submitted to the Architectural
Control Committee (ACC) in the form of an application for review. Work cannot commence until you have received approval for your project from the ACC. The following is an outline of the submittal process.
1. Application is submitted to the ACC for consideration. 2. TKPOA front desk staff collects all necessary review fees and compliance deposits and confirms that all necessary documents are signed by the property owner. 3. Architectural Control Department (ACD) staff conducts a field inspection and photographic records are taken to include with the submittal. 4. The proposed project is then added to the ACC meeting agenda. 5. After ACC has reviewed the submittal during a regularly scheduled meeting, staff generates an approval/denial letter. 6. A digital copy of the processed application is recorded and the original application including all related documents is then filed in the owner’s property lot file. The City of South Lake Tahoe (CSLT) Building Department requires approval from TKPOA for issuance of a building permit. ACC applications are available at the TKPOA pavilion front desk located at 356 Ala Wai Blvd., South Lake Tahoe, California, or on the TKPOA website, www.tkpoa.com . You may also call the ACD office at (530) 542-6444, ext. 240 and we will be happy to email one to you.

ACC B Y T H E N U M B E R S By Linda Callahan, Architectural Control Department Manager
I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY to thank the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) members Deborah
Sherry, Pat Disney, Kirt Willard, Tom Spencer, and Clint Schue, who served as volunteers on the ACC in 2020. The Architectural Control Department (ACD) staff performed well in 2020 by generating 371 first violation notices and achieving 288 compliances for a compliance percentage of 82.52%. Staff also conducted 11.5 hours of boat patrols, performed 238 second inspections (including carry over from previous year), 55 third inspections and generated a total of 1,668 department mailings. In closing, if you happen upon any of our ACC committee members, please thank them for contributing their time and efforts in making 2020 a successful year for all TKPOA members. All of you benefit from their time and commitment to protecting your property values.
