IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN!!!

Yes it's time to trim bushes and trim your wallet.

Thompson Brothers Landscaping is on the grounds doing the fall trimming.

And, we are sending out invoices for your 4th quarter homeowners association dues.

Each Quarter we bill for the next three months HOA dues. Some of you pay the quarter in advance, $390.00. The Board appreciates that. It really cuts down on bookkeeping time. It's O.K. to pay monthly. However, remember that your bill is due on the first of the Month. You will not get another notification, only the quarterly statement.

Reminder: per the Master Deed and By-Laws Article 10 (10.1), your HOA dues are due on the first of each month, even though we only bill quarterly. If you pay $130/monthly, it must be received by the 20th of that month. Payments received after this will be charged a late fee of 10% per annum. All HOA dues past due 90 days or more will be turned over to the association’s attorney for collection.

Remember, it takes timely collection of your dues to allow the association to pay your bills.

We appreciate your cooperation.

We almost had a flood!

I didn't get around to all of our community during the recent rain storms.

I did manage to snap a few photos of our main storm water detention pond (next to my condo).

It made up my mind to renew my flood insurance. It also showed the structure was engineered correctly to slow down the run off, but not cause flooding because of its design

I don't think flooding is a consideration for most of the units here. However if we had seen continued rain, perhaps some of the units next to the detention pond would have been in danger of some flooding.

New Board Elected

With the recent resignation of Board members Vic Zodda (President), Ken Burnette (Vice President) and Nancy Bennett (chair, Architectural Committee), the Board elected new Board members to serve until the next Annual Members Meeting.

We thank the former Board Members for their dedicated service in setting up the Association.

The new Board now consists of:

Norman Miller – President
Jack Carney – Vice President
Chris Stalans – Treasurer
Ursula Jenkins – Secretary
JoAnne Maudru – Chair – Finance Committee
Jack Wallace – Chair – Architectural Committee
Ron Minton – Chair – Landscape Committee


The Architectural Committee has developed an entrance sign and it has been approved by the Board. The new sign will have a base of mountain stone and will be lit. It will replace the Developer Sign on the right side of the entrance. Below is a representation of the sign.
