COMMUNITY EVENTS<br />
During the 2017 annual meeting as well as several Board meetings,<br />
you (fellow residents) suggested more community events. In an<br />
effort to meet this demand, a community cook off has been added<br />
to our <strong>2018</strong> community event list.<br />
The purpose of all community events is to provide opportunities<br />
whereby neighbors can come out get to know each other and have<br />
fun. Look for email alerts, the HOA website and banners for additional<br />
information as the scheduled date approaches. To ensure<br />
each event is successful, volunteers are needed.<br />

COMMON VIOLATIONS OF DEED RESTRICTIONS<br />
<strong>Raintree</strong> <strong>Village</strong> is a deed restricted community aimed at ensuring<br />
there’s aesthetic uniformity between residential properties and<br />
that certain other activities are limited. If you intend to do anything<br />
to the exterior of your home, you must complete an application<br />
for home improvements and modifications form. This includes<br />
installing a storage shed in your backyard.<br />
There’s also an expectation that all residents will maintain their<br />
yard and general appearance of the home. Common violations<br />
include overgrown yards, mold on homes, trashcans visible from<br />
the street and disabled vehicles. Our management company, KPM,<br />
drives through our community at least once a week assessing<br />
compliance with the deed restrictions. Any violations are communicated<br />
in a letter along with a picture of the violation (date &<br />
time stamped).<br />
It’s understandable that issuing or receiving such letters can be<br />
perceived as a nuisance. Yet, it’s necessary so that all of us remain<br />
on the same page of what constitutes a well-kept community (i.e.<br />
deed restrictions). In general, the Management Company and HOA<br />
Board understand residents are busy. Therefore, you are encouraged<br />
to contact the management company (KPM) when a violation<br />
cannot be addressed within stated timeframes noted in the letter.<br />
It cannot be emphasized enough that communication is the key if<br />
you do not understand a violation. You should also contact KPM<br />
once the violation has been resolved. Again, contact KPM or attend<br />
our HOA Board meetings for additional clarification.<br />
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED<br />
You are reminded of our standing committees, which need ongoing<br />
volunteers. The committees are as follows:<br />
• Pool Committee (organizes Official Pool Opening Party<br />
& monitors activities during pool season)<br />
• Newsletter - submit articles<br />
• Yard of the Month - select section winners<br />
We also need volunteers for the listed community activities.<br />
Volunteering is an opportunity to make <strong>Raintree</strong> <strong>Village</strong> a better<br />
community for all the residents. If you’re interested in volunteering<br />
for any of the noted events or committees, contact Walonda Hollins<br />
at hollinsw@sbcglobal.net.<br />
