That’s a savings of almost $120/year. Despite that limitation, we’re still investing in Leisure Park’s infrastructure. We spent about $1.5M in just the past 3 years, mostly on streets & street lighting, plus another $450K this year—impressive, given that Leisure’s Surplus was “only” $325,808. By this time next year, Leisure should have great streets, street lighting that’s the envy of Santa Rosa…all for only $22.62 more than last year. You’re getting a great deal!

El Nino is coming! You have unclogged your rain gutters, haven’t you? Your downspouts are secured and pointing toward the street? The gutters in front of your house are clear? Just making sure that you are ready for whatever comes.
Is This Your Experience? Some people over-indulge on leftovers after Thanksgiving. Not me, however. This year I’m going to quit cold turkey. Have a great Thanksgiving!

As we welcome November, I wanted to take a moment to share a few community updates, upcoming events, and friendly reminders. The holiday season will be here before we know it, and this is a wonderful time to connect with our neighbors and appreciate the small things that make our community feel at home. Thanksgiving is almost here, and I would love to hear how you plan to spend the holiday. Will you gather with family or friends, or enjoy a quiet, relaxing day at home? And, of course, we cannot forget the food! Perhaps you have a special family recipe or a favorite dish you look forward to every year—your famous stuffing, a favorite casserole, a homemade pie, or something that simply makes Thanksgiving feel complete. Our community potluck is coming up on November 21, and everyone is warmly invited. Please bring a favorite dish to share, come hungry, and enjoy an evening of good food and great company with your neighbors. Be sure to sign up by November 16 so I can plan for attendance and make sure we have a nice variety of dishes. These gatherings are always special, and I truly look forward to seeing everyone come together and share a meal.
1. Parking is extremely limited throughout our community, so please be mindful and considerate of your neighbors. Our community rules and regulations state that a vehicle may not remain in the same parking space for more than 72 hours. Following these guidelines helps keep spaces available and accessible to everyone. If you have ideas to make parking fairer and more convenient for our community, please stop by the office or email me. Your suggestions are always welcome. 2. If you have not yet returned your Resident Information form, please take a moment to complete it and turn it in as soon as possible. I understand that information can change throughout the year, whether it is a new phone number, a different emergency contact, or updated vehicle information. Keeping this information current helps us reach you when necessary and ensures our records remain accurate. Thank you to everyone who has already submitted a form. I sincerely appreciate your time and cooperation. 3. After-Hours Management Contact: If you need to reach me (Kristina) outside regular office hours, including weekends and holidays, please call 707-546-3865. The answering service will take your call and, when necessary, contact me or connect you with me directly. Do not come to my home unannounced to report concerns or request assistance. My home is my family’s private space, and this boundary must be respected. My children may be home when I am away,

and they cannot assist with resident concerns or emergencies. Unexpected visitors—particularly early in the morning or late at night — can make them feel unsafe. Please do not ask them to locate me, relay messages, or handle management matters. I care about our community and want your concerns to reach me through the proper channel. All after-hours management contact must go through the office number listed above. Thank you for respecting my family’s privacy and following this contact procedure. Wishing you and your loved ones a happy Thanksgiving season and a beautiful month ahead!
