President’s Message appy New Year from your POA board! We hope you and your loved ones had a wonderful Christmas. Your board and staff worked hard to develop a budget for 2020 that maintained the current low monthly dues of $56, and with a slight increase in our amenity fees. Look for a letter from me in your mailbox this month that outlines all of our 2020 dues and our plans for the year. You can find our 2020 Budget Summary on our website at www.diamondheadms.org. You now have the option to pay your annual and monthly dues online. It’s simple to register and get started. Visit https://hwtreasury.billeriq.com/ebpp/Diamondhead/ and follow the directions. When registering, please put three 000’s before your membership number. Our ongoing collection efforts of member dues continue, and as of Dec. 13, 2019, we
H
have received 1,202 payments for past due accounts this year, resulting in more than $442,229.44 collected. In a recent meeting, the board approved sharing additional financial information with you, including a Balance Sheet, every quarter. The 3rd Quarter results have been posted to our website and may be found at www.diamondheadms.org. To maintain a superior quality of life for Diamondhead residents, the POA enforces nearly 50 different sets of covenants. As most are aware, the first set of these covenants affecting a lot of houses (known as “Phase I”) will expire in June 2020. We want to make sure the covenant expirations don’t negatively impact such a special place that we have chosen to live, work, and play. To that end, the Diamondhead Futures Committee, chaired by Gary Becker, is hard at work on plans that will be released soon.
We encourage you to stop into the Country Club, present your membership card and receive a 15% discount on your entire food and beverage bill! On Wednesday nights, gather a team, eat, drink, and tease your brain at Trivia Night in the 19th Hole. Our delicious Prime Rib special is moving to Saturday nights in January. It’s a handcut to order, 12-ounce Certified Angus Beef served with horseradish sauce and au jus and your choice of two sides for $27.50. We want to be sure that you have access to the correct information moving forward. Please make sure to visit our website at www.diamondheadms.org and sign-up for our e-blast. We also invite you to stop by our official POA Facebook page at www.facebook.com/mydiamondheadpoa for real-time updates. As always, we welcome you to attend the monthly Diamondhead POA board meetings held at 7 p.m.
on the 3rd Monday of the month, which is a great way to keep up on all the POA’s efforts. Upcoming dates and times are on our website and Facebook page.
We look forward to our continued communication as we work together to plan for the future of Diamondhead. Sincerely, Bob
