February, 2024. Mike Moore has resigned as President and Director of the Association. The Board wishes he and his family well in their future endeavors. The Board thanks Mike for his service as President and also as a model good neighbor.
The Board has appointed Ed Bernice President until the annual meeting in August when elections can be held
Fairwell! The past 25 years have really gone by fast. I was the first and only board member and worked with Howard homes (developer) until we the homeowners took over the association. We have done many improvements over the years, and I believe it has made this a great place to live and has kept our home values up. We didn’t have any streetlights or entrance lights; we had NO pine trees or landscaping along Owen Rd., we had a well and sprinkler system installed. The mailboxes were a disaster and required a large number of repairs yearly (purchase of the metal boxes has been great). (Mailboxes are the homeowner’s responsibility). I imagine the board will continue to have them painted, so that all matches. Being on the board has at times been challenging but things need to be done and by-laws followed. Thanks for letting me be in this position for all this time. I plan on being here for a while yet and will assist when needed. Let’s keep the place looking great!
ANNUAL MEETING 2022
At annual meeting the ideas for 2023 projects will be discussed at the Aug 2022 meeting. It appears we will again be in the need of painting the paper boxes and posts. The Owen Road entrance to the sub is showing its age and some of the pine trees are dyeing and a decision needs to be made as to what can be done to make the front look beautiful again, and the cost. Should we hire a management company??? Lots of decisions to be decided by the new board.
Annual meeting 2022
The third Tuesday in August is when the by-laws say we are to have our annual meetings. This year it be August 16th. Mike Fraser will be ending his 25 years of time on the board. We have three homeowners that have agreed to run for the board. A discussion will be had at the annual meeting to let all three become board members. The state requires we have three members on the board but can have more if desired. Hopefully with more members we can spread out the work required by each.
Annual Meeting 2020
The annual meeting for 2020 will be held on the third Tuesday in August, as required in our by-laws. The meeting will be Tuesday August 18, 2020. You will receive additional information as to time and location. We will have two board members whose two year terms will expire. If your interested in getting involved in your community and wish to run for the board, please contact a current board member.. Thank You
Mailboxes 2020
The Board of Directors has put into the 2020 budget money to repaint the mailbox posts and paper boxes. The mailboxes are the homeowners responsibility but in order to maintain a consistant color and appearance we have opted to paint, as in the past. There are a few mailbox posts that are either damaged or just old and need to be replaced. The posts can be purchased at ace hardware in Linden. If your paper box is beyond repair we have a few assembled, so that we maintain the universal appearance as directed in our by-laws. Contact a board member if you need a new paper box. Please have repairs made before we start the painting process.
Thank You
