Ashton Wood Homeowners Association (AWHOA) 2808 Ashton Hill Drive, Dacula, GA 30019
Memo To: All Ashton Wood Residents November 14, 2019
Subject: 2020 Membership Drive and Annual Meeting Notice
On behalf of the 2019 Board of Directors I want to thank the residents of our neighborhood for all the support they provided during the past year. In 2019, the board took on some major projects for the neighborhood. Specifically, we re-surfaced the pool, installed new pool furniture, upgraded the fencing around the pool, and added two gates that close automatically and have mechanical locks resulting in better security and easier pool access. In addition, we re-painted the signs and pressure washed the brick work at the front entry. Of course, we continue to mow and maintain all the common areas in the neighborhood.
Many of you are “basic” HOA members, and your membership dues fund maintenance of our front entry and other common property, as well as mandatory taxes and insurance. In addition, your dues supported costs associated with our website which is designed to keep everyone current on events in and around our neighborhood (www.ashtonwoodhoa.org).
As mentioned above, those neighbors who opted for the “swim/tennis” membership had access to an upgraded and very well- maintained pool and lighted tennis courts. In addition, the swim/tennis committee hosted a neighborhood-wide party at the beginning of the season to show off our new pool. This year, we had more swim/tennis members than we have had in a very long time and we appreciate the support. The swim/tennis membership fees fully maintain both the pool and tennis courts which are both beneficial to the entire neighborhood. Their availability enhances the property values of every house in Ashton Wood. Now that the pool area has been addressed, the board is turning our attention to the tennis courts, which also need an upgrade.
To continue meeting the common needs of the Ashton Wood Subdivision, we need 1) your financial support in the form of membership dues and 2) periodic support during community workdays to keep our expenses as low as possible. The 2020 AWHOA membership drive has now started, and your support is very much needed and appreciated. Attached is the invoice for 2020 membership. Annual basic membership fees for 2020 will once again remain steady at $90 ($85 if paid on or before April 1, 2020). Full membership, including swim/tennis privileges, is available for $415 ($385 if paid on or before April 1, 2020).
Our neighborhood has 142 homes and the majority support the homeowner’s association either as basic or full members. I hope we will have the support of the entire subdivision in 2020 as all of us benefit from the actions of AWHOA.
You are invited to attend the annual AWHOA Meeting which is open to all residents. This meeting will be held on Monday, January 13, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. at a location to be determined. Make sure to visit the website to get more information as the date approaches. The purpose of this meeting is to review the accomplishments of the AWHOA in 2019 and establish goals for 2020. We will also elect board members for 2020, and then they will elect the officers for the year. Our by-laws allow for a maximum of nine board members and we currently have nine homeowners who have indicated a willingness to serve as Board members in 2020.
A ballot listing the 2020 Board nominees is attached and should be returned by December 9 for final tally and approval. If any additional homeowners are interested in assisting the board as a committee member or in other positions, please notify the Board of your interest via e-mail to hoaboard@ashtonwoodhoa.com.
I sincerely ask that you thoughtfully consider joining the AWHOA in 2020. Your support will help us maintain our status as one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Dacula. Membership is our only source of income so please consider joining as a full member to help maintain the pool and tennis facilities as well as other common community property.
Respectively,
Alfie Meek,
2019 President, AWHOA
