Multi-Lot Owners:

For owners that own multiple lots only, your return envelope will have your multiple lot numbers noted on the bottom.   We will multiply your vote on each ballot measure by the number of lots noted.   This allows you to provide only one ballot and we will ensure that the votes are cast for each of your lots.

Link to Updated CCR’s

If approved by vote, the ballot measures will become part of our updated CCR’s.  For your convenience, we have included a link on our official website that will allow you to see how these ballot measures are reflected in the updated CCR’s.  In addition, there are other changes included in the DRAFT that include the correction of typo’s, addition or correction of titles for clarification, definitions added, a table of contents added and other CCIOA required changes, which do not require a vote of the Owners. 

For any questions, please contact Carol Smith, POA Secretary at @email
