Electronic Communications
By Heather Blumenthal, Operations Manager
EACH YEAR IN OCTOBER, TKPOA conducts a mailing to each member for their copy of the Annual Disclosure. This 80+ page document includes the upcoming year’s Operating Budget, Notice of Assessment Increases, Budget and Assessment Summary, Annual Update of TKPOA’s Reserve Study, and other pertinent required information for members of the TKPOA as we prepare to go into a new year. This mailing is a requirement of Civil Code §4040 for Homeowners Associations.
Please join us in our
efforts in saving one
tree at a time and a
potential annual savings of
$10,000–$12,000 for the
Association!
In 2018, the costs for printing and mailing the 2019 Annual Disclosure to all 1,529 members of the TKPOA totaled approximately $12,000. New for 2020, updates to the Civil Code requirements allowed for Associations to provide members their Annual Disclosure via electronic delivery, such as email, as long as the member has provided the Association with a completed and signed “Consent to Receive Disclosures via Electronic Delivery” Form.
This year, TKPOA received 314 “Consent to Receive Disclosures via Electronic Delivery” forms from members in time for the mailing of the 2020 Annual Disclosure. On October 31st, 2019, these 314 members went sent an email with a link to their copy of the 2020 Annual Disclosure, resulting in an approximately $3,000 savings in printing and mailing costs after the remaining $1,215 Disclosures were mailed.
TKPOA has continued to receive “Consent to Receive Disclosures via Electronic Delivery” forms after the deadline for the 2020 Annual Disclosure mailing and is confident the Association will realize an even higher savings when it comes time for the 2021 Annual Disclosure mailing.
In order to continue to realize these cost savings, TKPOA needs more members to sign up to receive their Annual Disclosures, and other communications via electronic delivery (email) as allowed by law. Examples of other electronic communications you may receive from TKPOA include email eblasts that get you the latest and greatest information on topics such as TKPOA Board Meetings, Town Hall Forum Announcements, Weed Harvesting Schedules, current and upcoming projects, board elections, etc.
The “Consent to Receive Disclosures via Electronic Delivery” form can be found on the TKPOA website www.tkpoa.com, requested from the front desk at info@ tahoekeyspoa.org, or requested in person at the TKPOA Pavilion Office. Completed and signed forms should be returned to the TKPOA Office at 356 Ala Wai Blvd, South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150. Contact the front desk with any questions at (530) 542-6444.
