CountrySide Bulletin

Community Update

To All CountrySide Residents,

The CountrySide Board of Directors along with PMP are monitoring recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as well as those of federal, state, and local officials regarding the global Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. It is the goal of the CDC to slow the transmission of the virus in our Community and region. We are taking the following actions to prepare for and mitigate Community transmission of COVID-19:

Residents Services and Association Administration

• The Management Office door is closed to walk-in traffic but will remain open to remotely conduct business. This policy is currently in place until further notice.

• Most services available at the Management Office are also available online for more information at www.Countryside-va.org. Contact information for individual staff members can be found on the website or by calling 703-430-0715

• Design Review Application assistance – Submit applications to lisamm.cside@pmpbiz.com  

• Parkway Pool Meeting Room is closed until further notice to all meetings and activities.

• Trash/recycling services – Continues

• Resale packet ordering – website www.countryside-va.org

Lifestyles

• Community events have been canceled through April 30, 2020.
• Due to the existing National Covid – 19 Emergency, concerns about the safety of CountrySide residents/volunteers, and the requirement to limit public gatherings to fewer than 10 people, the BoD has decided to cancel all Committee meetings for the months of April.

• Tot lots, playgrounds, and the basketball court will remain open as the HOA has no way of closing them.  Please be aware that viruses have been found on surfaces 3 days or more after contact. The HOA cannot disinfect these outdoor surfaces, so residents use these amenities at their own risk. Social distancing must be observed.

• Every individual needs to do their part to slow the spread of COVID-19. These are just some of the recommended actions you should take:

• • Wash your hands often for 20 seconds every time. Use sanitizing gel when soap and water are not readily available.

• • Avoid close contact with others, especially people who are sick. Keep a 6-foot zone of space around you. Avoid small and large group settings.

• • Cover your cough. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

• • Clean and disinfect frequently touched items.

• • Know the signs and symptoms of COVID-19. If you are showing symptoms, call your doctor before seeking testing and treatment. Stay home and self-quarantine if mildly ill.

• • Create a household plan in case of illness.

• • Educate yourself and your family. Conditions are changing daily. Stay informed.

Going Forward

• Conditions, concerns, and actions related to COVID-19 are changing daily. The CountrySide Board of Directors along with PMP will continue to monitor and update its actions accordingly and will provide any further updates via community mass email and on the CountrySide website.

We know this is a challenging situation and we will continue to provide the Community with relevant updates as they become available.

Stay safe, take care of yourself and your family.

Sincerely,

The CountrySide Board of Directors
