The last meeting of the year for Board of Directors of the Eagle Ridge HOA

The board of directors of the Eagle Ridge Community will have their last meeting tonight, November 19th at 6:00 pm in the HOA clubhouse.  They usually meet once a month except during the holiday season.  The next meeting will be held on January 29th, 2009 at the Association clubhouse.  All homeowners are invited to attend and those who come out are always treated to cookies and drinks.  Homeowners are encourage to bring their ideas, issues and/or concerns to the attention of the board during the beginning and the end of a meeting.  Tonight's topics on the agenda are the installation of the speed humps on three locations on Club Drive to reduce the speed in the community, the landscape/maintenance report and updates, landscape installation approvals, and financial overview of the HOA.  As mentioned before the budget for next year doesn't increase the hoa dues for the majority of the association.  The speed humps were ready to be installed earlier this month but unfortunately they didn't fit in the locations.  Eagle Ridge has several committees who work hard to make this the beautiful community it is.  We have a park committee who is in charge of all the parks in the community; a family/social committee who organizes several community events throughout the year such as the Easter Egg hunt, the Fourth Of July parade and potluck and the Halloween party; the technology committee works hard to connect the homeowners through our website (http://erhoa.com/) and keep them informed on all activities and news in the community; the welcome committee welcomes all new residents with flowers and a welcome kit; the safety committee works hard to keep to community safer with a vehicle badge system and speed reduction efforts such to name a few; and finally the landscape and maintenance committee which has worked hard these last 4 years under the direction of the chairperson Ms. Graham, to improve the quality of our communities appearance.  They are responsible for the beautification of the entrance to the community, upgrades to Club Drive and Muirfield and even our community off Miller Ave.  (we fondly call it our "South Knoll" since it is located on top of a hill overlooking the valley) has bbenefited from their efforts with landscaped areas.  Shapell (http://www.shapell.com/) who developed the "South Knoll" also added a park overlook with views of the entire valley.
