Announcing My Candidacy
I’ve just now FAXed my resume to the Riverbend Nominating Committee announcing my candidacy for the Board up for election at this year’s Annual Meeting. So I guess it’s official: I’m running again.
Some may recall my late announcement last year. (You can refresh your memory here, here and here.) When I learned that only one had announced candidacy I went into full reactionary mode and announced myself – after the deadline. Due to lateness my resume was not distributed. That is, until the election stalled for lack of homeowner participation!
Mark your calendar and attend the meeting Wednesday, November 4. Hear for yourself what’s going on around Riverbend, meet the Board and your neighbors, speak up and take a more active role in your community.
Look for my resume – along with those of any other candidates – in your mail in the coming weeks.
I hope that you’ll consider supporting me with your vote!
Our Contracted Landscaper – Growing Concern
A letter was recently mailed to all homeowners from Growing Concern, our contracted landscaper. Our Board authorized them to make use of the mailing list of homeowners back at the July meeting.
On of the things that the Board has been talking about repeatedly over the years is the condition of some of the non-common, private property. (See the bottom of their recent notice about the entrance project for just one example.)
So here’s your chance to get some of that work done on your private property.
Tonight’s Board Meeting
Lately I’ve been attending the Board meetings. I’ve not got the time to make a more comprehensive report right now but I do have some news to share.
It was mentioned by the Board that the monthly Homeowners’ Fee will remain unchanged through the next fiscal year.
I find it kind of astounding that while the cost of nearly everything else has risen dramatically, our fees have remained flat for this long. You may recall that the last increase was announced way back in November 2006.
