2. May 2013 Charter Oak Hills Notes Continued….. • Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success. —Henry Ford • Covenants Reminders: • There are a few commonly violated covenants that we see that need to be corrected. • Please remember that you cannot park on the road for any long periods of time (ie, Over night or weekends) • There in no parking vehicles in your yard they must be parked in the drive-way. • Please keep your property in a presentable condition ( ie. Mow the Lawn, Trash picked up) • We would like to ask everyone to look over the Covenants and correct any violations that you may have. We are understanding and looking forward to working with you. • Our time has seemed short as a board and we have come a LONG way since we took control. We still have a ways to go but with community involvement we will get there. We are only in the second quarter but we are looking forward. Elections for a new board will be in September, this will give a whole quarter ( October – December) for the incoming board to sit with the existing board and learn how to conduct business and so on. The positions available will be President, Vice President, Secretary, and Committee Heads. If you want to run please turn your name into the board by 16 August 2013. • There are a few rules for running: • You can walk the community and pass out flyers but you are not allowed to leave them in Mailboxes. • You can not put yard signs up anywhere in the community. • These are non-political party positions therefore there is no Mud slinging, Debating or Campaigning. • The Committee head elections will be less formal and on a more volunteer basis. Please get involved in the committee that you would like to be involved in and learn how they conduct business. Working Pre
