New Business
?• The Board discussed the possible use of Small Claims Court, Credit Bureau reporting, or a Collection Agency to collect delinquent dues. It is not fair to the homeowners that religiously pay their dues each year that there are so many people that choose not to pay, yet reap the rewards. Remember that dues pay for amenities such as street lights, landscaping, grass cutting, stonework, and snow removal. This subject is to be addressed at the Annual Meeting in September.
