Next HOA Meeting March 18th @ 6:00 3208 Sandpiper South

Board Updates

The Board will be conducting a ‘Rent vs Own’ audit. Please look for a letter to be mailed and respond accordingly.  If you rent, please provide a copy of your rental agreement.  This information will allow us accurate contact information.

The idea of planting Cat Tails in the pond has been brought up.  The Board has done research and the specifics will be discussed at the March meeting.

The discussion continues about trees.  We have confirmed that the trees on the south side of the privacy fence are owned by Sandpiper Bay.  An analysis will be done in the spring as to what needs to be removed and what can stay.  The concern is that the dead trees and limbs could harm a parked car, or worse, harm a resident or guest.  The Board will create a plan to remove the dead trees depending on the amount that needs to be removed and the cost to do so.  This may be done in stages depending on what is determined.
