Are you happy with your dues, value for the money? Happy with HOA responsiveness to your needs? How about transparency? Here’s your chance to understand what is happening secretly behind the scenes. It does affect you! Attend the HOA Board sponsored Zoom meeting 6 pm Wednesday November 5. This “emergency” meeting has been called with little notice to discuss the 2026 budget. It will also provide an open forum for owners to present issues and ask questions. The meeting agenda and links are at the end of this post.
In preparation, here’s some food for thought:
- The Board has fired our Community manager FirstService for no clear reason. They leave November 30 (their last knowledgeable representative left last Friday). No replacement has been identified. Need an RFID vehicle tag? Need ARC review and approval of a project? Landscaping issue? Good luck.
- We have a new gate system, implemented without any community input. Love it or hate it, what did it cost to install? What are the annual costs we’ve been obligated for? Nobody knows, but you can ask at the meeting.
- Transparency? Here’s a comment that a home owner recently posted. It could be you. “Dear HOA Board, I would like to request some clarification regarding the recent removal of six trees and several bushes along the pathway to the golf course between Parkstone Circle and Pinehurst Drive. We did not receive any written notification or explanation about this decision. The removal has significantly reduced privacy for the four homes adjacent to the pathway, as the bushes next to the iron fences previously provided natural screening. Could you please share: The reason for removing these trees and bushes; Whether there are plans to replace them with similar new landscaping? If there are broader plans to remove additional trees or bushes along other pathways throughout the Pinehurst community? Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated. We value the community’s natural beauty and would like to understand the future landscaping plans. Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards,JD”
- The list goes on.
