Complaints are often received, but few offers of help!

 

Upon purchase, every new owner receives a “Disclosure Packet” which contains information about the community, as well as the  governance for it. The Board of Directors serve to maintain this community. The Board is comprised of volunteers from the community, your fellow neighbors. They live, work, and function in addition to serving on the Board.  The Board is made up of a President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Members-at-Large. Ideally that would be a total of 9 people to represent the needs and wants of this community, along with various committees. Optimally, the committees serve to take care of parking, landscaping, playgrounds, courts, and the pool.  Currently, we have no active committees! But the needed actions continues as added work for the current Board of Directors.

 

The following paragraph is paraphrased from that written by our lawyers, specifying what happens should the current Board members leave:

 

“In the event that the Association does not have sufficient volunteers to comprise a Board of Directors, a court of the Commonwealth of Virginia may appoint a Receiver to administer the affairs of the Association.  The Receiver would be paid an hourly fee to run the Association and would likely increase assessments to cover the shortfall and pursue aggressive collection tactics to collect unpaid assessments.  Such would negatively result in a significant increase in owner assessment fees that are substantially higher than the current assessment to cover the non-paying owners and the Receiver’s hourly fee.  The Receiver would also have absolute power over the affairs of the Association and the members’ right to vote would be taken away.  The creation of Receivership would also have a negative impact on the values of the homes in the Association and could affect resales. 

​

We encourage all members to volunteer in any way possible to support our community.”
