37. Motion passed. Invoices for 2021 dues will be mailed out and

Current
Year’s Projected Budget:
Committee
Reports:
Welcome- Committee is having difficulty
due to realtors. Jeff is reaching out to
remedy.
Social- Food trucks will continue as
long as trucks will agree. Thanks to all
that have helped in scheduling them. Nothing plans were made since Aug 2020 due
to the lack of “knowing” budget and financial standings. Now that finances are in good shape, caught
up, and a budget has been set for the upcoming year, a social committee will be
able to set up a movie night for spring and/or fall, as well as other
things. Suggestions are
appreciated. You can reach out to
Christie Kettle.
Beautification- The purpose of this
committee is to make the decisions for décor, landscaping, and review mowing
contracts regularly. Sign for No
Soliciting and HOA recognition is suggested and will be discussed among other
entrance plans, and “yard of the month”
New
Business
Landscaping- annual spring work day
suggested
Maintenance Needs- $4100 to repair and
it was cheaper to replace. Looking for
bids and quotes. Street lights- the
lights have been retrofitting them with LED.
They are no longer made. A 2nd
certified letter will be sent to homeowner/responsible party to replace
Glenraven light. To update lights will
require a lot of digging and extra lights could become the responsibility of
individual neighbors. Electricians have
been scheduled to give quotes on future work.
Major
Discussion items:
*Chickens- Home owners to speak and
address whether they have understood the CC&R requirements and will comply. A 2nd violation letter will be
sent within a week giving them 30 days to comply with restrictions. Fines will follow if not in compliance.
*Chain Link Fencing- Absolutely
prohibited by the CC&Rs. Unless homeowners voluntarily comply the board is
required under the bylaws to enforce the restrictions and would necessitate
retaining an attorney. A 2nd violation
letter will be sent within a week giving them 30 days to comply with
restrictions. Fines will follow if not
in compliance.
*Exempt properties- HOA was voluntary as
defined under state law for the homeowners at that time, but after sell the
bylaws hold that all properties are mandatory members and subject to the
CC&Rs.
*Glenraven light- THP report was
received by an outside source and the HOA has not received any communication
from the at fault party and attempts to begin the claims process with their
insurance carrier (USAA) have failed due to the incorrect policy number listed
on the accident report. Options include
a vote for the HOA members to absorb the cost of replacement (approx. $5K)
attempt to send certified letter to driver with a demand for damages, or retain
an attorney and seek damages through legal avenues.
*Dues- waived for 2019 and 2020. Any 2019-2020 payments will be applied to
2021-2022 dues. An online payment option
is being investigated for homeowners to pay 2021 dues. Invoices will be sent out after online
payment option has been put out. HOA
dues are due June 1st.
*Insurance- HOA bylaws require a general
liability policy for the neighborhood but no record of any such policy ever
existing can be found. Multiple quotes
have been received and the board has begun the coverage process. Current quotes are in the $1100-$1900 range.
Christie Kettle makes a motion to end
the meeting.
Lindsey Davis seconds the motion.
Meeting adjourned at 7:25pm

Facebook, Food Truck, and Santa
- Several new members were added to the fb page this evening. I apologize for taking so long to get to them. I honestly check each request and ensure that those requesting access to our neighborhood page actually own or rent property in South Ridge. If you know someone who is waiting for access, please encourage them to answer the membership questions, agree to the terms/rules of the page, and provide extra info for clarification on the property, if requested. I do this for the safety of the neighborhood and for the integrity of the page. We want it to be helpful, informative, and neighborly. If you are not already a member of the fb page, please visit and request to become a member for the latest updates and information. Here is a link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SouthRidgeNeighborhood
- Gray Smoke is scheduled to be in the neighborhood Friday, Dec. 11, from 4:00-7:00.
- "Santa Visits South Ridge" plans are in the works for Sunday December 20th. We're working on something a little different this year we think everyone will enjoy it. More info to follow when details are nailed down.

Trick or Treating
We want to keep everyone safe tonight during our trick or treating hours. Please read over the following and keep these in mind for the sake of all involved.
1) Trick or Treating hours are encouraged from 5:30-7:30pm. This gives a good safe time for our neighborhood kids to get around to all our neighborhood houses and houses know when to expect them.
2) Please have your front porch light on or be in the driveway if you're giving out candy. If you choose not to participate keep front light off to ensure you're not visited.
3) Please pull all parked cars off the street. This allows for clear passage of vehicles coming in/out as well as a clearer path of vision of and for all pedestrians.
4) DRIVE SLOWLY. Don't assume every child has an adult right beside them and will be looking both ways. Kids are quick and excited to get to the next house. Watch carefully, keep the phones out of you hands, and drive 15-20 mph. This is not a night that 25 mph speed limit should be the norm.
Thank you for doing all you can to keep everyone safe.

Parking/RV/Boat Covenants/Restrictions
As stated at the HOA meeting on August 3, 2020, the new HOA board is currently committed to two major goals.
1)
We want all of our neighbors to feel an added
sense of security and safety for themselves and their children.
2)
When homeowners abide by the set of covenants
that govern their homes, we sustain a standard of living that will only make
our neighborhood more desirable and increase our property values.
Each section of the neighborhood has a list of covenants/restrictions
by which each homeowner is to abide. The
original builder of South Ridge (Derek Comperry) created each set of
covenants/restrictions when each new section was established. Each section's plat, by-laws, and restrictions can be found
in labeled tabs on the blog site (southridgehoa.blogspot.com) and can be
located at the Montgomery County Register’s Office.
A couple of notices we would like to remind all our
neighbors about is in regards to our parking of cars, boats, and recreational
vehicles. Stated below is the particular
text within each section of the neighborhood covenants. We are also providing the section number,
paragraph number, and the date of the covenants.
STREET PARKING: Overnight on-street parking
shall be prohibited with the exception of periods of inclement weather where access
to the residence driveway would be hazardous or impaired due to slope or
topography of the driveway servicing said residence; however this restriction
shall not apply to guests of a residence provided that said guests do not park
on said street or drive for more than seven (7) days.
Section I & IA (amended to paragraph #11, circa 2001)
Section
II-V (paragraph #19, circa 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005 respectively)
BOATS AND RECREATIONAL VEHICLES: No boat
longer than (see individual section restrictions below), motor home,
recreational vehicle or the like shall be permitted to be upon or maintained
upon any lot, unless the same be stored inside a garage or detached structure
constructed upon the premises.
Section I & IA (20 ft, paragraph #9, 2001)
Section
II-IV (16 ft, paragraph #8, 2000, 2002, 2004)
Section
V (18 ft, paragraph #8, 2005)
UNPAVED SURFACES: No yard area or unpaved
surface of any lot shall be used for the parking or storage of any motor
vehicle, trailer, or boat.
Section I & IA (amended to paragraph #11, circa 2001)
Section
II-V V (paragraph #22, circa 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005 respectively)
We want to
thank everyone for helping to make South Ridge the best that it can be. Please help us by following the restrictions
and by-laws that you agreed to, upon moving into our neighborhood. We will have to start sending out violation
notices to those neighbors who choose to disregard these regulations, in a few
weeks. These regulations help keep our
neighborhood a safe place for all of our residents!
