Note from the President

Well it has been another interesting month. The HOA office has re-opened for your use with a limited schedule of 9-Noon on Tuesday mornings only. The hours/days will be adjusted based on conditions and need. The email system is up and running and getting current information and announcements out to our members who are signed up. Once again, if you want to receive news from the HOA via email, send an email granting permission allowing us to send to your You can now send your suggestions to your HOA office at the following email address: DTHOASuggestionBox@ gmail.com. With the current pandemic situation and everyone not readily having access to suggestion boxes in the Starlight Ballroom and the HOA Office e mail address to dthoacomms@outlook. com. We currently have 260+ recipients.

We need a new website that allows for a much better flow of information, some security, easier uploading & more pages. The old one is difficult to work with and has significant deficiencies. We have been studying the TARA Woods website which more than fills our needs and is very functional. Visit the Tara Woods website and compare. You will know in one glance that format is superior.

One other thing—the Tower is published 10 times a year. This was decided many years ago due to the lack of news available in the summer. We have the HOA Board created the new email address to make it easy for you to send your suggestions to us! Each Suggestion MUST have your NAME, STREET ADDRESS and PHONE NUMBER on it along with your suggestion that you would like the HOA Board to address the bulletin board, All Call, and the email system to get out urgent developments. I know some have questioned this and there is your answer. The staff can use a break in the summer and there are not a lot of volunteers to fill in.

We have had lots of controversy relative to flag and yard signs in this community. The HOA is NOT responsible for any rules or regulations on these and has no authority on their display. I have queried HTA and Fred Taylor for the rules on the flags and signs and the response from Fred is is included in the Tower. Note the general rule is no political flags are allowed if visible from off the residential property. Recently, with Hometown America. Along with the suggestion you should write a brief solution to help us address your concerns more quickly. You will be notified upon receipt, when your suggestion is brought before the BOD, and what actions will be taken with it. I’ve learned an 18”x24” political sign may be placed on a resident’s property. Recommend you check with the HTA office before placing a sign to avoid any issues.

I have just been notified by HTA that they have withdrawn approval for the Viet Wall exhibit in November of 2021 due to the concern about Covid-19. The event has been postponed until there is a better outlook on Covid-19.

Sadly, the pandemic is growing worse in our area and we pray that it subsides. Protect yourself, keep an eye out for your neighbors in need, and stay well. We all look forward to getting this
