BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
The Board of Directors meets monthly, on the first Tuesday of each month,
at the South Woodland Hills Clubhouse, located at 2030 Shadow Rock Drive. Meetings
begin at 7:00 PM, and the meetings usually run until around 9:00 PM. There
is no meeting in December. The first item on the agenda
each month is public
comments, and we welcome yours.
The Board consists of nine (9) members elected
to three-year terms. Three directors are elected
each year at the annual meeting in October. Current
Board members are: Marcia Powell, Bob Robertson, Sander Mak, Michael Higgins, Betty Millard, Scott Wiggins,
JC Clifton, Sergiu Burca and Dominic
Gutierrez.
While the Board has the primary
fiduciary responsibility for all Community Association
matters, we contract with three separate management companies
for the day-to-day operations. One company – Sterling
ASI - is the main point of contact for all matters pertaining
to Deed Restrictions, Assessments, Architectural Control,
etc. The village manager is currently Mary Brown. The
second company - Jeff Ellis and Associates - manages
the swimming pool and they hire another company to assist
them in maintaining our pool. The third is Marshall Service
who maintains our park and entrances. We also work very
closely with our Gwendolyn Condoleo the Mayor's Assistance
Office Representative.
COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES:
The main activity conducted by the Board for the community
is the operation of the swimming pool and park, which
is located at 2159 Fir Springs. The pool is closed for
maintenance on Mondays (except Holidays), and open Tuesday-Sunday
during the summer, from 10:00 AM until 8:00 PM (open
until 9:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays). The pool is
open to all members of the Association in good standings
and their guests.
Our playground equipment is some of the newest,
biggest and best in Kingwood. It has certainly
been a hit with the kids. And while our playground
is
as safe as any other, we do urge parents to monitor their children during
play. We also have a full size basketball court at the park which also
has been a big hit not only with the kids but adults alike. We also have
a soda machine available to you everyday near the pool entrance. This machine
is maintained by Wahoo’s Swim Team.
DEED RESTRICTIONS:
Of course, it wouldn't be a letter from the Association
President if I didn't mention something about
Restrictive Covenants or Deed restrictions!
The Community has certainly improved a lot in
the last couple of years, and I commend you for
that. While the Board does provide direction
to,
and contracts with, the management company to enforce these restrictions,
final resolution of the violations comes directly from you and nowhere
else. Thank you for your efforts and your cooperation for observing the
deed restrictions.
I guess the biggest infraction we still find
nowadays is garage sales, trash cans viewable
from the street, and lawn/roof maintenance. Our
Restrictive Covenants expressly forbid any commercial
activity within
the Community;
and the courts have
interpreted sales of this type as commercial activity. The board has voting
to host two garage sales each year, one in the spring and the other in
the fall. We would appreciate your help in keeping these violations down.
We have met with our village attorney about how
to bring our Restrictive Covenants/Deed Restrictions
up to date. Over the next year the board will
be working to bring these up to current standards. Any time these are update
they will require a vote of the homeowners in good standing. We are considering
looking at what is the most critical part to fix first, bring that to you
and then have the remainder ready for the next annual meeting.
In closing, let me again say that the Board invites
your input into the operation of your Association.
We welcome your attendance at the Board
meetings and the annual meeting. Please remember there are a lot of kids
on the streets when school is in session.
