HOA Meeting Date Change

The next HOA board of directors meeting, originally scheduled for October 15 will now happen October 27.

It was pushed back due to delays in getting our proposed community budget for next year, which we will approve at the meeting. This process should take 20-30 minutes. After that we will address other community business. As always, all owners are invited and encouraged to attend.

The board's focus is trying to hold down costs so that HOA fees don't rise. Electricity rate hikes mean that our power costs for things such as street lights will go up 15-20%. However, thanks to several calm hurricane seasons, we should see some relief on the cost of our community insurance, which is our biggest expense.

We have been soliciting bids from vendors for services such as our landscaping maintenance. We will soon have a new company mowing our lawns. I'll provide details here soon.

If you have any issues you'd like added to the meeting's agenda, send them to board(at)stcharlesplace(dot)us.
