PRESIDENT’S PEN Greetings! As we enter our second month of 2023, I want to thank the board members for electing me as the 2023 board president. The guidance and direction Bobbie provided by Michele Mays, Board Compton, the former President president, Rebecca Zazueta, the general manager, and other board members over the past years have moved our community into significant steps in securing a viable future for all. Our focus has been keeping the community safe, healthy and at an economical level that will continue to benefit us now and those who walk after us. My goal is to continue to keep you aware of and involved in the operations of our campus. We provide a vast amount of information, including committee and board meeting schedules, agendas and minutes, on the association website, in Windsor Life and on the association’s Facebook page. Residents are encouraged to attend committee meetings. While these communication avenues have served our community very well over many years, some have stated they feel that the board and management are not transparent or accountable. My hope is that those who have a concern will take time to review the available information and seek the answers to questions that are commonly shared. If PRESIDENT'S PEN continued on page 4
