Temporary Water Shut Off to Community (Wednesday - July 15, 2026 from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM)
June 30, 2026
Please be advised that on Wednesday (July 15, 2026), between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM, the entire community's water will be turned off temporarily to make necessary repairs (i.e., Replace Water Supply Valves) at multiple Units (Buildings) within the Community.
If everything goes well, the water could possibly be turned back on earlier than anticipated, but please be prepared to be without water usage during the above timeframe. Our Association Manager will inform all residents (via Email and Association Website Announcement) in the event the Unit Owner’s contracted Plumbing Company experiences any issues requiring a delay in restoring water to the community by 4:00 PM.
We recommend that you plan accordingly and store any water you may need during this time for drinking, cooking, and/or personal hygiene.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding while the Plumbing Company completes this necessary repair/maintenance work.
Regards,
Board of Directors

Stormwater Retention Pond-Forebay Dredging Project Update
June 30, 2026
Greetings Cromwell Park at Salem Residents,
Please be advised that Dragonfly Pond Works will be returning to the property during the week of July 13th to remove the Sediment Dredge Tubes on the Pedestrian Walking Path, repair (i.e., regrade, seed, stabilize, etc.) the damaged/eroded Stormwater Retention Pond banks, and repair/reestablish the Pedestrian Walking Path.
Once the work begins, “Closed” signs will be placed at both ends of the Pedestrian Walking Path within the “Active Work Zone”. The Pedestrian Walking Path section under construction/repair will remain Closed to all residents until the necessary repair work has been completed and determined to be safe for pedestrian traffic.
Thank you for your cooperation while we work to complete this important project.

Swimming Pool Update
June 28, 2026
Greetings Cromwell Park at Salem Residents,
The Association’s Swimming Pool Maintenance/Service Contractor has performed the necessary Water Quality Treatment procedures and actions to address the fecal contamination incident. All water quality tested/measured levels are within the City of Virginia Beach Department of Public Health’s required (acceptable/safe) parameters to operate the pool. The community swimming pool is officially reopened for use by all authorized Cromwell Park at Salem Residents.
As a reminder, any individual (regardless of age) who is not fully toilet-trained or who experiences incontinence must wear a designated, snug-fitting swim diaper or specialized swimwear designed specifically for pool use when entering/using Cromwell Park at Salem’s community swimming pool. Also, please be familiar with and adhere to ALL Pool Rules & Regulations; posted within the pool area and also available on the Cromwell Park at Salem Website (cromwellparkatsalem.org - FAQ’s > "What are the Pool Rules and Regulations?"). Violations of the Pool Rules & Regulations may result in a Due Process Hearing leading to potential fines and/or loss of pool privileges.
In addition to the fecal contamination incident, stones/rocks were found inside the pool (See photos at bottom of this announcement). In the past month (several occurrences), trash/open food items/unauthorized toys were left on the concrete tables and scattered on the pool deck, evidence of glass bottles in the pool area, children kicking/throwing balls which broke the clock, children bringing/parking scooters and bicycles on the pool deck, residents opening the pool gate for people (including children under 14 years old) who did not have a required Pool Pass (Proximity Card), Clubhouse/Pool Bathroom has been trashed (See photo at bottom of this announcement), and umbrellas left open when the occupant(s) left the pool. Further incidents (especially those which cause damage requiring expensive repair costs) and/or unacceptable personal behavior at the swimming pool will result in a Due Process Hearing leading to potential fines and/or loss of pool privileges for the responsible Unit Owner/Resident; and depending on the incident, it potentially may result in the Closing of the Community Pool for the remainder of the Pool Season.
The Cromwell Park at Salem Condominium Association (i.e., All 132 Unit Owners) recently spent $16,250 on necessary structural repairs to ensure the swimming pool would be safe and pass the required Department of Public Health’s Inspection to allow us to operate (open) the pool for all residents to enjoy this summer. Within the last 4 weeks, the Association spent an additional $1,760 to complete necessary replacements/repairs to some of the pool equipment (i.e., Filter valve, Diverter valves, Connectors/Piping on the system’s Suction Side, Pump Filter Basket-Melted, etc.). The Pool Rules & Regulations (e.g., no toys/small objects in the pool area) are in place for a reason.
We understand some of the Pool Rules & Regulations may seem inconvenient, but we appreciate your cooperation to ensure the pool and pool deck area are safe and enjoyable for everyone to use.
We hope all Cromwell Park at Salem Residents get the opportunity to enjoy the community swimming pool and stay safe!
Regards,
