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.
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
As you know, we had the CHOA Holiday Party on January 20th. Approximately 100 folks attended. There was great food and conversation.
In addition, Ken from Garron Grounds laid out several options for Murphy’s Green. The reason the Board wanted to present this information during the Holiday Party was that the timing was good to figure out the Spring planting ideas for the space.
The Board wants to hear from you about what you want done with Murphy’s Green.
We had an informal survey of the folks attending and Option B (chipping and putting) got the most votes with Option A second (putting only). You can see the options below.
We are getting close to receiving a majority of the Ballots.
Return your ballot to make sure that your vote is counted.
You can deposit it at the CHOA Box on Boones Bend or use the stamped envelope included in the mailing
WINTER PRUNING AND WEEDING
You may notice the Garron crews out and about. Winter pruning of Lilies, Hydrangeas, and Sedum and trimming of Lavenders, Red Twig, Ground Covers, and Grasses are beginning soon and will continue into February.
If there are plants you don’t want pruned, be sure you have your name on the “No Prune” list. If you want to be added or are not sure you are on the list, please contact Steve Chinn at schinno@gmail.com.
Happy New Year Neighbors!
Because December was such a busy time, the CHOA Holiday Party will be this coming Saturday January 20th, 4:00 pm at the Charbonneau Country Club.
This will be a great time to get together to meet new neighbors and catch up with everyone.
In addition, Garron Grounds will be will be presenting several options for Murphy’s Green.
Please bring an Appetizer to share. Coffee and water will be provided.
Please bring your own adult beverage if you like.
We look forward to seeing you there!
