January 2008 Newsletter

Preston Hollow Herald Newsletter January 2008

Next Homeowners Meeting: The next HOA meeting is Tuesday, January 15th. Al & Marion Walker have offered to open their home for this meeting; their address is 86 Forest Wood Court. Meeting time is 7:00 pm.

Congratulations to Al Walker and Alan Setelius for their re-election as Vice Presidents and to Margaret Greco to the position of Treasurer. I think many of the homeowners that attended the annual meeting were surprised to find out that so many of the things we take for granted have been provided by other homeowners and not outsourced (I’ll bet you were wondering why our dues were so low!!) Thank you, to all who volunteer their time and efforts to keep Preston Hollow a place we are all proud to call home….we love the fact that we don’t pay $500.00 as some communities do.

Speaking of Volunteer Appreciation on December 15th a group of our fellow Homeowners volunteered their time and effort to beautify our front entrance…saving the rest of us $750.00!! THANK YOU, Al Walker, Henry Waller, John Cucinella, Joe & Lisa Groeneveld, Philip Goebel, Carlos Manrique, Tim & Cathy Butler, Jesse Cash, & Tom Masson who provided doughnuts and coffee for the workers.

From the ACC: At the annual association meeting in November, HEDGE height was discussed. Many homeowners have hedges of the Viburnum type. These hedges are very fast growing and require frequent trimming. Please keep in mind that the deed restrictions state that hedges shall not be over 6ft. in height Please keep Preston Hollow Beautiful. Remember all Deed Restrictions are available on line, at the Hernando County.

ASSOCIATION DUES: As many of you are aware the Association Dues have increased to $235.00 per year. The notices have been mailed out and are due and payable now, so let’s get those checks in the mail and keep the dues low for next year.
