Spring updates

As spring has arrived, wanted to update neighbors on a few points:

1. HOA meeting held on March 20. About 40-50 attended. Main topic was election of our HOA board of directors. While Matt Ballain and Will Carroll were chosen in September to lead us through the turnover process, this regular election was needed to take us through HOA stuff in the next year. One person was nominated, but he chose not to run as both Matt and Will seem to be doing a good job in their first three months since taking over Jan. 1. So, they are once again our elected members, two of five on the board - which also entails three developer represents. Numerous topics such as covenants and compliance issues were brought up, also, and Main Street Management addressed those as needed. Remember, contact Randy Truitt if you have any questions/concerns/reports/etc.

2. Landscaping time is here. Our HOA members and Main Street Management hopes everyone remembers to take a look at your covenants to make sure you're in compliance. Landscaping needs to be done once the weather permits, including certain numbers of shrubs and at least one tree. Seeding backyards is also required. Don't forget - should be fun seeing everyone outside doing yardwork with the warmer weather!

3. A spring cleanup may be coming in mid-April. Main Street Management will update us on that, and word will be posted here as soon as possible.

4. Warmer weather also brings us a chance to see neighbors again and get more residents connected with what's happening. Neighborhood Watch is a big part of that, and we'll be journeying door-to-door before long to meet neighbors and let them know what safety efforts we have here. We want everyone to know about our NW window stickers, as well as our Pet Awareness Program where we keep a list of community pets in hopes of helping families reunite with any lost pets. Contact your Block Captain about all this, or NW Coordinator Mike Hoskins.

That's all for now. Hope everyone is well and has survived the winter. Look forward to seeing everyone around the neighborhood.

Mike Hoskins
