Spring Snail Alert

Spring is here – and so are the snails who love to dine on our leafy green plants, especially hostas.  Garron has treated with an initial application of snail and slug bait. We are recommending that homeowners continue treating their plants to defeat these pests.

Be Aware and Be Safe

Please note that a Coyote was spotted April 24th on the Golf cart path next to Red 6 coming from the direction of F&G pool.  A Coyote was found dead later that day on the road to Langdon Farms but we are not sure this was the same animal.  Please be careful with your pets.

In addition a resident of Charbonneau Village woke to find someone shinning a light into her bedroom window.   If you experience suspicious activity please respond as follows:

  1. If you feel in danger call 911

  2. If you see something that does not seem “right” but you don’t feel in danger: between the hours of 8:00 pm and 3:00 am call First Response 503-207-5300.
    c. During the day 7:00 am to 8:00 pm call Steve 503-312-0927 or 503-682-0234
Please note that we appreciate each homeowners role in keeping our neighborhood safe.

Murphy’s Green update

Murphy’s Green
At the February Board meeting, the improvement of the Murphy’s Green area were approved with a chipping and putting green as presented at the January Holiday party.

You may have noticed some preliminary work being done this past week.  While it is too cold to begin seeding the putting surface, Garron will be marking out some proposed planting areas and taking line of sight measurements to be sure the proposed plants don’t obstruct any views. Once that is done, we will prepare a planting plan for each area and hope to be able to review those with the homeowners that have a direct view of the area.

You can direct any questions to Karen Siegel or Steve Chinn.

Stay tuned for further updates.

CHOA Alarm Proposal Fails

As you know, the Board of CHOA conducted a vote of homeowners on whether you wanted to amend our Bylaws to eliminate the requirement that CHOA provide monitoring of alarm service to homeowners.  If passed, this would have resulted in each homeowner being responsible for payment of the monitoring of their own security system and your monthly HOA fees would have been reduced by $13 each month.

We have a total of 228 homesites with each home getting 1 vote.  In order to amend our Bylaws, we needed 75% approval or 171 yes votes.  We received 157 Yes votes and 38 No Votes with 33 homes not voting.  Therefore, we did not get enough votes to pass this measure.

The Board still feels like this is the right approach and may try another vote in the future.

Please let us know if you have any questions and/or need more information
