Pool Opening 2018

The new Pool Liner has been installed and the Pool will be Open for use no later than Friday, May 18th and we will post if it is ready earlier than the 18th. The Pool is being converted to a Salt Water Chlorination System which will create softer water and should save us on Chemical Costs Annually. Don’t worry, it is safe on your eyes and your swim suites. We do ask that you shower at the new outdoor shower by the bathrooms before swimming if you have been to the Lake or River, or been playing Basketball. We have ordered several new Chaise Lounges for the pool that should be arriving in a few weeks. We plan to have the Neighborhood Pool Party on Saturday June 16th with Inflatables, Snow Cones, Hot Dogs and Hamburgers.

Annual HOA Meeting April 17th

It’s that time of year again and residents should have received invoices for the Annual HOA Dues, as well as a letter asking for volunteers for Members of the HOA Board of Directors. We did receive any new volunteers for the HOA Board and Thankfully the existing Board Members were willing to serve again in 2018. If you wanted to volunteer or submitted a request and we did not receive it, please let us know and we will reach out to you. There is still an open position on the Board for the Resident at Large, who is a voting member of the Board and is responsible for managing the HOA committees, so if anyone is interested in that, please let us know as well.

We are currently taking bids on replacing the liner in the Pool, so if anyone can recommend a company we would be glad to get a quote from them as well to replace the liner in the community pool. The developer, Darrell Pittard, has offered to help cover the cost of the new liner since we are not getting the new pool yet, and if that works out we will be using the money budgeted for the Pool Liner for some new patio furniture for the Pool. The Pool is expected to be open in May, so let us know if you have any recommendations soon.

The Annual Meeting for this year will be on Tuesday, April 17th at 7pm. The current President will be traveling for work and will not be able to attend, but the rest of the Board should be present as well as our new representative from Neighborhood Management, DeAnn Ranzy to go over the financials and answer any questions you may have. We should be posting an Agenda for the meeting before the meeting to let everyone know what will be discussed ahead of time, and we expect to have some local political representatives there to speak at the beginning of the meeting, but more details about that will be in the Agenda.

December 2017 HOA Meeting Minutes

 

HOA Meeting Updates

We have posted the minutes from the August HOA Meeting , the Q2 Financials and made a couple of other updates to the website. We now have a standard ARC request form  that can be downloaded and emailed to the Architectural Review Committee at arc@brookhavenofmargaret.com  for ARC Requests. Rhonda Hodges has compiled a list of important local contacts that we will be sending out to all residents soon along with copies of the Covenants & Restrictions, but it can also now be found here; Local Contacts . We would like to compile a similar list of local businesses for residents, so please email your local favorite businesses to president@brookhavenofmargaret.com and we will send that out and post it on the website soon.

 

Brookhaven HOA Meeting

We will have an HOA Committee Meeting on Sunday August 6th at 7:00 pm at the clubhouse. We will discuss Committees and other open HOA business.

Committee Meeting and Recurring HOA Meetings

We are planning to have an HOA meeting soon to discuss committees and community concerns. The Board wants to conduct monthly meetings to hear concerns and keep everyone updated on our actions, we just have to coordinate it around clubhouse rentals during the summer. These meetings will be informal, but will allow everyone a chance to be heard and updated on current HOA business.

Miss Ponds, resident@brookhavenofmargaret.com, is working to get some committees off the ground and is simplifying the list of committees down to the Architectural Review Committee, Welcoming Committee, Finance Committee and a Fitness Committee. We are looking for Volunteers for all of these, so please contact Miss Ponds if you are interested and we will discuss this in further detail at the upcoming meeting.

 

Pool Updates – Please Bring Your Access Card

We have turned on the pool gate lock and so as of today it will only be accessible using an access card. By now everyone who is current should have had time to receive their access cards, if you have not received your access card, or feel there has been an error, please contact Sarah Marie Henson, shenson@nhmllc.org  O: (205) 877-9480, to get it resolved. If you would like to buy a second access card they can be purchased for $25 by contacting Sarah Marie Henson, but we are limiting it to 2 cards per household. Everyone who is a current member of the HOA should have a card by now so please do not let anyone in who doesn’t have an access card.

The Pool will be shutting down at the beginning of September to start the construction of the new Jr. Olympic Size Swimming Pool that is to be completed by next April. We will be posting designs of the pool as soon as we have them.

There has been some mix up in the Pool Rules, but our pool rules are posted below:
