New Deed Restriction Enforcement Policy

     New Deed Restriction Enforcement Policy
A new and improved Deed Restriction Enforcement Policy was voted on and adopted at our regular board meeting on June April 10th 2013. The new policy addresses several questions and concerns that have been raised by members during the last few years. We believe that this proposed policy builds on the best in our current enforcement policy and improves it in the following ways.
  •  A statute of limitation (6 months) added to deed restriction violation enforcement policy.
  • The new policy uses clarifying language and removes ambiguity.
  • Fines assessed on the 3rd notice instead of 2nd notice
  • New requirement for HOA to send notification prior to self correction action (eg. forced mow)
Please click below to review the new policy. New Deed Restriction Enforcement policy

The strength of our Association lies in the effective volunteer efforts of its members in the day to day operations. We are very excited about our plans for 2013 and are counting on volunteer involvement to help us succeed.

Why Volunteer ?
Whether it's to make a difference in your community or to put your talents, experience, knowledge or other skills to use for a good cause, we encourage everyone join one of our committees. What better place to volunteer than right here where we live.

Volunteering is Easy
Most volunteer roles will take up an hour or less of your time each week. Committees meet just 4 times a year (once a quarter) or more often if the committee feels that it is necessary

Volunteering is Convenient
With much of the work and deliberations being carried online or over email you have great flexibility about when to chime in and contribute to ongoing conversations.

Volunteering is Fun
Volunteering will give you an opportunity to meet and get to know many neighbors. You will also get to share in great events such as our soon to be introduced volunteer social and volunteer training events

Volunteering is Rewarding
Even though board members and committee volunteers are not compensated monetarily, participating in making our community safer and more beautiful is reward enough.

Opportunity for Further Contribution & Growth
Being on a committee means being involved in and getting to see the operation of our community up close. The knowledge and experience gained here may lead to opportunities to contribute more to the association and possibly a decision to take on a role on the board.
