We give our thanks once again this year to Carolyn for all her hard work. The major portion of the evening was spent discussing the question of mandatory assessments. Many questions were asked and much debate went on through the evening. Items in the bylaws were brought up and changes discussed. By the end of the evening the membership unanimously voted to begin mandatory assessments with fifteen voting for and one against the proposal. The Board was instructed by the membership to make needed changes to the articles in the bylaws, file the changes in the Articles of Incorporation and the bylaws. The effective date of mandatory assessments for all lot owners is July 1. A letter will be sent to all lot owners from the President about the changes and all information about the Mandatory Common Area Maintenance Assessments. The Annual Meeting was adjourned at 9:10 PM.

HCCHA - Who We Are

The Highland Cove Community Homeowners Association was formed in November, 1999. The bylaws were voted upon and accepted and our first official year was 2000. The Association is responsible for collecting dues from from association members for the upkeep and maintenance of the common areas. By keeping the common areas clean and presentable, the subdivision property values will be maintained. Protective Covenants were established during development of the community, and are in place in order to protect current and future homeowners. All homeowners are eligible and encouraged to become members in the Association. This web site is free to all homeowners. The site has ads in it due to the fact that it, too, is free.
