This is an email sent to the BOD today:
The HOA bylaws specify a July 2007 annual mtg, on the anniversary of incorporation, July 9, 1986. Written notice is to be given to members of this mtg 15 days prior, about June 23.
When is the annual mtg planned?
In the last HOA newsletter we were told the Civic Center would be ready after ''the last few days of work'' and that this work ''is to begin on Wednesday, April 4.'' It was ''sometime in June or July'' the center would be opened and the annual mtg held. The given reason for delaying the July 06 annual meeting into Sep 06 was the then imminent completion of the center. On May 24 Gil Vipraio reported still several problems continued with the center. It would appear the annual mtg needs to be held when the bylaws so mandate and the center opened when it is eventually ready.

Proposed Agenda Items for the 2007 Annual Mtg (added to from time to time):
Answer why there has been nearly no corporate communications members and what remedial action is to be undertaken.
The incomplete rptg at the Sep 06 annual mtg did not comply with board responsibilities to give in their ''annual report.''
The incomplete or non-existent newsletter content.
No announcements of any board mtg schedule or agenda or proceedings.
Little apparent resolution of the Nov 2005 scheduled opening of the center, and repeated requests for status info have gone unanswered except for the May 24 rpt.
The marquee at Cedar Park and Autumn Park remains vacant, constantly.
Answer why there has been repeated board non-compliance with the assn bylaws.
July 2006 annual mtg scheduling.
Absence of notice to members of meetings.
Improper proxy doctn.
Absent, late financial reporting.
Answer why there has been a record of non-response to member inquiries of operation of the assn (save May 24 rpt).
Answer why there has been repeated board non-compliance with the city's Unified Development Code.
Absent maint of the jogging trail area.
Absent maint of the grassed areas around the pool, pavilion, center, jogging trail areas.
Absent maint of trees away from sidewalk areas, traffic/street signs.

Tell us the truth, now, please

Need to postpone electing more directors until we find out what these directors have been doing to clean up our neighborhood!
What, oh what, are we waiting on to fix those fences, trim those trees, clean up the yards????
Can't the HOA fix these problems and make the violators pay? Maybe we should try something besides letters and more letters!
See you at the meeting!!
