Rockspray Homeowner Association March 2015 Newsletter MARCH 26, 2015 VOLUME 1, NUMBER 1 RHA Covenants Renewed In Perpetuity! Many thanks to every homeowner who signed and sent their votes to renew our homeowner association in perpetuity. This means that we won’t need to have 60% of the owners resign the documents every 10 years or risk losing the log cabin and surrounding property to the city for its own use. RHA Bylaws Are Under Review Quick Facts: 133 homes 8 homes sold in 2014 14 homes are rented Please take a moment to review our BYLAWS on the www.rockspray.org website or pull them out of your file drawer. Your Board members are doing just that and will meet in May 2015 to discuss changes. We encourage you to be part of the process. Look them over and send your suggested changes to: secretary@rockspray.org. There are many past Board members out there, as well as future members who want to see some changes. Let’s hear from you. Approvals Now Needed for Construction New rules in Peachtree City require all Homeowner Associations to approve new construction as part of the permit process. We are just as “excited” about this as you are to hear it. Log Cabin is booked 21 of 31 days each month. Please email the RHA Board through the website www.Rockspray.org with your plan. Please include your address, a picture/drawing, and the color. www.Rockspray.org DUES Remain Unchanged Facebook: Rockspray,GA Your Treasurer and fellow board members are pleased to report that this year’s dues are the same as last year’s. RHA President position is still open We are building a reserve fund to lessen the need for dues increases. When RHA began, there was no reserve fund. Dues were collected just to meet the needs of maintaining the property. Dues were increased only when maintenance requirements exceeded the revenues. Log House Bookings The Rockspray Log House is available to any homeowner in the subdivision who is current on their dues or their renter. It’s a great place to have a family gathering, picnic, or birthday party! This past year we averaged 21 days of use each month!! Just email Nancy to make your reservation: loghousebookings@rockspray.org. The log house can be booked up to three months in advance of when it is needed. The checklist and rules for using the log house are on our website www.rockspray.org. We hope to see all homeowners use it at least once this year. Log House Grounds V.P. Darcy Beardsley Once the weather warms up, we’ll have another mulch-spreading day to further spread the thick mulch to other areas on the property. A temporary sign that weekend will notify everyone, but if you would like to help with such activities, please send an email to loghousegrounds@rockspray.org. Treasurer Chris Connick We have a new message board, thanks to an Eagle Scout. It is still a work in progress, but should look nice once it is competed and stained. Secretary Jill Pattiz Feel free to pick up trash on the property when you see it and deposit it in the trash cans on the side of the log house. These trash bins are rolled to the street every Monday night for garbage collection Tuesday mornings.
