Hate to be a Scrooge, but it's ...

Dear Neighbors,

This letter is to remind you of the upcoming HOA dues.

Semi-annual dues for the period January 1, 2011, to June 30, 2011, are $350 per household.  Dues are to be paid by December 31, 2010, but will be considered timely if received by January 15, 2011.  If your payment is not received by January 15, 2011, a late fee of $25 will be assessed.  All checks will be cashed on or after January 15, 2011.  Please be timely with your payments.

Checks should be made out to “Grapevine Meadow Park Homeowners Association, Inc.” and sent by U.S. mail or hand-delivered to the residence of Melvyn Foster, your friendly neighborhood HOA treasurer.  Alternatively, if I am unavailable, checks can be hand-delivered to the residence of Mike Bothwell.  Please do not leave your dues payment in the mailbox or at the front door.  To receive confirmation that payment was received, please provide an email address or telephone number.

If you have prepaid your dues, your payment status will be annotated on this letter with the hand-written phrase “paid up.”

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Melvyn Foster

The Results are In

Thanks to everyone who attended our special meeting as well as those who handed in their ballots ahead of time.  We collected ballots from 18 different homeowners.  All 3 measures passed with the 2/3 votes necessary.  What is next:

1.  Updated versions of the Bylaws & Declarations will be made with the approved changes.  The board will sign them and the plan is to get them officially filed by the end of January 2011 (Once filed they will be posted on this website for reference).

2.  The dues increase will not go into effect until June 2011.  The dues for December 2010 will remain at $350 (based on $700 annually).  Expect to be getting your dues notice shortly.

Thanks again to everyone in helping to get these mattered settled, and Happy Holidays to all.
