Sommer Place Subdivision

There are some exciting things going on in Sommer Place Subdivision. If you aren't familiar with it, it is a subdivision that is in the city of Peoria, the Dunlap school district and has an Edwards mailing address. Goofy, I know, but what can ya do. Anyway, it's located about a mile from the Shoppes at Grand Prairie in north Peoria, behind Weavers Farm and across from Chadwick Subdivision. It will be around 500 homes large when it is all said and done, and is almost half way there right now. They had their first home owners association meeting about a week ago, the first since taking control of the developed sections from the developers. Lots of good talk and, like all new neighborhood associations, there was some interest in maybe at some point looking into the possibility of a pool. I've been involved in a lot of neighborhoods, associations and such over the years and the discussion of a pool always comes up, then fades when costs are worked up. However, if any neighborhood can do it financially, I think it would be Sommer Place due to the lone fact that it will have the right number of homes built to support it. It won't happen now, or next year, as the association is just getting started and it takes a while to build up the funds to start a project, but long term it is about the only Peoria/Dunlap area subdivision I think that will have the manpower and funds to start such a project.
