THE RENDEZVOUS

This is the February 2009 newsletter of the Bridgerland Meadows Homeowners Association. This blog contains the same information as the printed newsletter and allows the opportunity to make comments about any of the issues in this month’s newsletter or to view previous editions of the newsletter. This is not an official form of communication with the HOA Management. It is provided to increase community awareness, involvement, and communication. Please keep comments respectful and use appropriate language.

Communications Committee

Six to eight residents of the development have been meeting with the developers for the past several months. Issues covered include technology, parking, maintenance items, booting, fencing, signage, snow removal and other various items. This committee represents a cross section of residents and the committee will be happy to hear and discuss any issues put forth. You can add items to the agenda by email them to Sharon at sandersen@redeagledevelopment.com

Technology Update

We were hoping very much to have a agreement worked out with Comcast by the time this newsletter was sent. However, several issues are still being addressed. These issues center on Comcast's decision to spend the necessary dollars to bring services to the development. Given the conditions of the economy, their decisions are weighed very carefully. It would seem that being able to immediately hook up 130 customers would justify their spending the funds to get to the development. But, as stated before they are a large company and decisions such as this are not made locally and expansion dollars compete with projects all over the country. Having said this, we are still hopeful that they will decide to supply our subdivision and the new senior development east of Bridgerland Meadows. We will keep you appraised as negotiation continue.

Round-A-Bout

We have had several separate occasions that someone has driven over the round-a-bout. Not only does this make a mess for Mark to have to clean up, it has damaged drip lines and weed barrier will have to be replaced. We do have security cameras on that area and have contacted the authorities. If you see someone doing this please get a vehicle description and contact Sharon @ 435-755-7829.

Window Coverings

It has been brought to our attention that some residents still have window coverings that are not approved by the developments CC&R's. These coverings include blankets, cardboard, newspaper, towels etc. The CC&R's require "horizontal leveler type blinds" (section 6 b vii). If you have unapproved coverings on your windows, please get them changed as soon as possible. If you have questions about what are acceptable for window coverings please call Sharon @ 435-755-7829 or email at sandersen@redeagledevelopment.com.

Furnace Filters

Sorry to keep harping on this. But in today's economy, every $ you can save is important! It is a good idea to change you furnace filter every 30 to 60 days. We have several sizes of furnace filters available in our office for $3.00 each. This could be the best money you ever spent!
