The HOA will begin to use the blog to increase communication by posting important information on the boards activities along with any information or announcements that the neighborhood should be aware of.

Update for the week of 9/15/09:

1) A new board was elected at the last HOA meeting. Your new board is as following:

- President - John Schneider
- VP - Jeff Engaldo

- Leslie Malotky and Jim Strobel will remain on the board.

2) As a reminder, HOA dues in the amount of $400 are due on or before September 15, 2009. Please drop them off or mail to Mark Urbin. Any dues not paid within 10 days after the due date will be considered delinquent and the Association Member will be charged at 12% per annum on the unpaid dues. See section 6.2 of our by-laws.

3) Effective 8/29/2009 Leslie Malotky, Jeff Engaldo and Cindy Vance were nominated and approved as members of the HOA ACC. Thanks to all of them for agreeing to commit their time and expertise to this important role.

To further develop the ACC, the board as asked Leslie to put together a formal charter for this committee. This charter will include the following:

- The ACC will report all activity to the board monthly
