A Special Evening with Zinc Details Founder<br />

Vas Kiniris Marked 50 th Anniversary Eichler<br />

Speaker Series<br />

By Coralie Wickens<br />

Design, tacos and sangria proved to be perfect matches at the recent Upper<br />

<strong>Lucas</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> 50 th anniversary Eichler event last month. Visitors as far afield as<br />

San Francisco, Healdsburg and Berkeley attended the evening with special guest<br />

presenters Zinc Details Founder Vas Kiniris and Design Writer Jordan Kushins.<br />

Visitors were treated to gourmet tacos from The Taco Guys, who parked their truck<br />

in front of the <strong>Lucas</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Homeowners</strong> <strong>Association</strong> building, where the event<br />

took place. The Taco Guys were a popular addition to the evening, organized by<br />

the Architectural Review Committee.<br />

The second in the Eichler Speaker Event series, Kiniris discussed Eichlers and<br />

the life works of Alexander Girard, Charles and Ray Eames and Eero Saarinen.<br />

Jordan Kushins conducted an engaging Q&A discussion following Kiniris’s talk.<br />

Kushins, who contributes to Fast Co. Design Daily, and Surface magazine, was a<br />

former editor at Dwell Magazine<br />

About Vas Kiniris:<br />

<strong>Lucas</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />

Chamber Orchestra<br />

Return Engagement<br />

Put Friday evening December 14 on<br />

your calendar! That is when the <strong>Lucas</strong><br />

<strong>Valley</strong> Chamber Orchestra will present<br />

its second public performance. To take<br />

place at the LVHA Community Center, it<br />

will be free and open to the community.<br />

It is intended to be an informal, family<br />

event so children are welcome.<br />

In November 2011, a group of musicians<br />

from the surrounding community,<br />

along with <strong>Lucas</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> residents Ruth<br />

Koenig, Mark Yanover and Frank Lahorgue,<br />

gathered to form the LVCO and<br />

have been meeting regularly since. A<br />

distinguishing feature of the 21-piece<br />

ensemble is that it is a self-directed<br />

chamber orchestra - no conductor.<br />

Leadership responsibilities are passed<br />

among the individual musicians and<br />

various sections, with one violinist<br />

generally acting as concert master.<br />

On the program for Dec. 14 will<br />

be W. A. Mozart’s Symphony No. 12<br />

and Franz Haydn’s popular Symphony<br />

No. 83 nicknamed “The Hen.” The too<br />

seldom heard Mozart work was composed<br />

when young Amadeus was only<br />

15 years old. Violinist Alice Chen will<br />

act as Concert Master for the Haydn<br />

with violinist Bert Thunstrom leading<br />

the Mozart as Concert Master.<br />

The performance will begin at 7:30<br />

PM at the <strong>Lucas</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Community<br />

Center. Admission is free of charge and<br />

there is no reserved seating.

LVHA Community<br />

Center Area and<br />

Tennis Courts Design<br />

and Renovation<br />

November 13, 2012<br />

Studio Green Landscape<br />

Architecture gave a presentation<br />

of their concept drawings for the<br />

community center area encompassing<br />

the pool and toddler playground area,<br />

and both the upper and lower courts.<br />

The drawings had slight variations but<br />

mainly focused on ADA accessibility,<br />

improved use of the space available<br />

and making the wading pool cohesive<br />

with the main pool and deck area.<br />

Members of the community<br />

had an opportunity to voice their<br />

desires and opinions of the project.<br />

Several residents were concerned with<br />

the landscaping of the upper courts<br />

and possible removal of trees. The<br />

trees that are marked were marked<br />

by the surveyors for topographical<br />

survey maps. Others asked about the<br />

location of the wading pool and its<br />

access to the main pool, the need for<br />

storage facilities and access to the<br />

toddler playground when the pool is<br />

closed. Many expressed concern about<br />

the cost of the project and asked what<br />

the estimates were but the discussion<br />

was not to be about the cost at this<br />

time. Some felt that the kitchen in the<br />

community hall should be renovated<br />

before doing outside work. Many<br />

members expressed approval of<br />

the proposed BBQ area with more<br />

seating.<br />

This was the first in a series<br />

of presentation/workshops to the<br />

community in order to be sure that<br />

everyone has a chance to weigh in on<br />

the plans. The PIC will be making the<br />

designs available to post online in the<br />

near future.<br />

Elderly Help List<br />

Ted and Betty Von Glahn have offered<br />

to help any elderly resident with<br />

small chores at no charge. They have<br />

suggested a list in the <strong>Valley</strong> Vibration<br />

of those willing to help. The task could<br />

be as simple as changing a light bulb for<br />

someone who cannot get up on a ladder<br />

to change it.<br />

Please e-mail the office at lvha@<br />

lvha.net or call 472-3202 to be added to<br />

the list.<br />

Doggy Poop Bags on<br />

Our Trails<br />

Thanks for picking up after your<br />

dogs. If you take the time to bag it,<br />

please remove it! Natural poop will<br />

decompose, but bags do not.<br />

We understand some people get the<br />

Dead Grass – Part II<br />

“Hurray,” you say. Now it’s raining and<br />

my dead grass is green again. But –<br />

please realize that it will look very dead<br />

once the rains stop and Mother Nature<br />

no longer provides irrigation. So, the<br />

ARC, once again, asks that you direct<br />

your attention to this problem. Please<br />

either make a New Year’s resolution<br />

to water your grass once spring rolls<br />

around, or replace it with water tolerant<br />

landscaping. The ARC is here to help.<br />

Remember: The front of your house<br />

makes a first impression, is a welcoming<br />

expression of who you are, is also<br />

enjoyed by all your neighbors and the<br />

entire community, and it affects property<br />

values as well.<br />

The ARC thanks you.<br />

bags on “the way back” …but lately<br />

much of this trash remains on the trails.<br />

Coming upon bright plastic bags in our<br />

path is unsightly.<br />

Please be responsible for properly<br />

disposing of your own bags if there is<br />

no trash can at the trail entrance. Keep<br />

our trails clean!<br />

what they cannot use with a Bay Area<br />

metals refinery.<br />

MCRC will also take small kitchen<br />

Drainage Reminder<br />

<strong>Homeowners</strong> whose yards abut the<br />

hills, are reminded that it is their responsibility<br />

to clean their concrete V-shaped<br />

drainage ditches at the periphery of their<br />

property. Serious damage and flooding<br />

can occur from accumulated debris<br />

and one could be liable for damage to a<br />

neighbors property.

Protect Our Creeks<br />

LVHA has been reminded by the County that homeowners whose property abuts a creek<br />

should be aware of many Marin County Ordinances.<br />

Property owners must keep the creek free of obstructions or potential obstructions and<br />

may not enlarge their property because you may be in violation of one of the following ordinances:<br />

Chapter 23.08.025(5), Grading Ordinance; Chapter 11.08 Creek Ordinance, and<br />

Chapter 23.18, Storm Water Management & Discharge Control Ordinance. You may also<br />

be in violation of California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG), and/or State Regional<br />

Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) regulations.<br />

Please be aware that one may be held liable for any damages to property or from a pollution<br />

discharge if fill/debris falls into the creek. In addition one may be subject to civil<br />

liability. Property owners must maintain a minimum 2:1 bank-slope.<br />

A permit is required for any fill and grading done within fifty feet of the creek.<br />

Please do not put any debris onto the creek banks. During high rains this can flow into the<br />

creek and cause a blockage downstream thereby causing damage to homes or property.
