Now’s the time to get your home exterior and lawn back in tip-top shape. As we all know, fencing, exterior paving, and walls get a bit moldy over time, so please pressure-wash and paint as needed. If your home or lawn hasn’t been cared for properly, you can expect a notice asking you to correct the problem. If you have any outstanding issues left unaddressed from the last mail-out of violations, please attend to those items immediately. If you’d like to make changes to the appearance of your home, or if you see a neighborhood issue, please send a message to: [email protected] Annual $25 Paddocks Dues letter in this mailing! Please return your $25 annual Paddocks HOA dues promptly to avoid penalties and interest. If you owe any back dues, please include that as well.

Meeting place: WLCA office. We need two volunteers for the Architectural Control Committee. With about ~1 hour per week, you can really help. Board position not required, just be willing to communicate within a committee of three (3) to review change requests for homes/yards in The Paddocks, and review the monthly notifications that community agent, Marlene Merrin sends out. If you haven’t helped the neighborhood in the last several years, please step up - it’s your turn. You should have received a yellow “proxy card” and pre-stamped mailer along with this packet. If you can’t attend the annual meeting, please return the card with the name of someone who you know will attend - a “proxy”.

(Save us all some trouble) Movie Night Fun We recently had our first “Movie On The Commons” event (pictured right).
