Hello neighbors,
Here is a brief compilation of events in your Berkshire-Yorkshire HOA for the period of April 1-June 30.
Repairs/maintenance- Minor repair to the moveable picnic table @ the common area of Falling Water/Trevino.
The fence section in this common area will be replaced this summer, expenses to be shared equally between your HOA and the homeowner fronting on Echo Hawk.
A request has been submitted by a homeowner for someone to clean the sprinkler water stains off of our HOA brick marquee. Our landscape company is not equipped to do this maintenance, and couldn't refer us to anyone, so if any homeowner knows of a company that can perform this cleaning without damaging the structure, please let your board of directors know.
HOA website- In case you missed the prior email, the HOA has a NEW email address. It is berkshire.yorkshire.hoa@gmail.com You can also contact me direct at my personal email (eng11firechaser@yahoo.com) if you need immediate assistance.
CCR's- One violation was addressed, which was quickly corrected.
Property improvements- A home on Trevino was freshly painted this past month. It looks great!! A new mailbox was installed on Falling Water Way.
Several other backyard improvements are also on-going in our neighborhood. THANK YOU to those making improvements to first contact their HOA/ACC committee, so that all work is conducted "by the book" and neighbors stay happy with each other.
Bank statement- Our checking account (4/1/20-6/30/20)
BEGIN BALANCE 04/01/2020 $23,125.87
DEPOSITS $ 1,350.00
DEBITS $ 7,469.15
END BALANCE 06/30/2020 $17,006.72
HOA assessment- Your treasurer indicates that there are 7 (seven) property owners whom have still NOT PAID their 2020 HOA assessments. Please check your financial records, and if you are one of these, please act to correct this situation as soon as possible. As indicated in your CCR's,(article 6.7) there is a late fee of 1% per month (12% per annum) assessed for outstanding accounts. If you have experienced financial hardship as a result of this pandemic, please contact your treasurer for a payment plan to be arranged.
Eagle Water Company- No updated info available regarding Eagle Water Company vs City of Eagle vs Suez Water. I think a court date for arguments for August is in the works.
As for Eagle Water Company, they sent us an astronomical water bill last month for sprinklers on our four common areas in the 'hood. We are appealing this billing, as the amount of water use claimed by EWC would have turned us into "Lake Berkshire-Yorkshire". Hopefully, this issue will be resolved within the next month.
New neighbors- One property has sold on N SevenOaks Place, and another is actively listed...….. please welcome our new neighbors to the 'hood as they arrive.
Coronavirus- I know that you're tired of hearing "coronavirus" everyday, but I urge you to continue due diligence in your close contacts with others, because the studies done by our local health authorities indicate this isn't over yet. Stay safe out there!
That's all for now..... enjoy the summer season, and thank you for keeping your yards/properties looking nice..... we are proud of our little community here.
Regards,
Ben House
