The Official Communication of the TKPOA
By Kirk Wooldridge, General Manager
WITH PUBLICATION OF THIS SEPTEMBER 2021 Keys Breeze issue the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA) has completed over three years of monthly publications with our current publisher Just Imagine Marketing, Kathy HessSlocum. I would like to thank TKPOA Staff members, TKPOA Board members, Kathy Hess-Slocum, and her team for all of their hard work, writing, and editing each issue. This effort has provided the monthly Keys Breeze Magazine
to the 1,528 property owners free of charge for the past three years.
I have personally received very positive and insightful feedback from many TKPOA members. Many comments they now read the Keys Breeze cover to cover. If you miss an issue you can always catch up online via our TKPOA website: www.TKPOA.com where each monthly issue of the Keys Breeze is posted in digital format. The monthly Keys Breeze Magazine is printed on recycled paper with soy-based ink and has been for the past 10 years.
As our Publishing Disclosure Notice (that is located on the second page of each publication) states: The Keys Breeze is the official monthly publication of the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA), which is located at 356 Ala Wai Blvd, South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150. Each membership parcel receives on subscription to a domestic address. Cost to produce and distribute this publication is offset by advertising revenues and budgeted funds. The inclusion of advertising in this publication does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association or its Board of Directors of the projects, services or views contained therein.
To clarify in the last three years the Keys Breeze publication has “paid for itself” as it has done so in the past three, years and many of the previous years. Through the advertisers the Keys Breeze is published monthly to all TKPOA Property Owners free of charge. There are no line item expenses in the TKPOA Budget for the Keys Breeze production. The only cost to the TKPOA is the TKPOA staff, and Board Members personal time in writing the articles and occasionally the cost for a special photograph, layout, or artwork, which is minimal.

The Keys Breeze publication meets the requirements of a California Homeowners Association for a Common Interest Development “Official Communication” method to its members; especially now that we have accomplished the monthly publication of the Keys Breeze.
The Davis-Stirling Act Civil Code §4040 and §4045 and §4050 indicates Association documents shall be delivered by one or more of the following methods: 1. Personal delivery. 2. First-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to a member at the address last shown on the books of the association or otherwise provided by the member. Delivery is deemed to be complete on deposit into the United States mail. 3. Email, facsimile, or other electronic means if the recipient has agreed to that method of delivery.
The agreement obtained by the association shall be consistent with the conditions for obtaining consumer consent described in Section 20 of the
Corporations Code. If a document is delivered by electronic means, delivery is complete at the time of transmission. 4. By publication in a periodical that is circulated primarily to members of the association. [The Keys Breeze would qualify for this definition]. 5. If the association broadcasts television programming for the purpose of distributing information on association business to its members, by inclusion in the programming. 6. A method of delivery provided in a recorded provision of the governing documents. 7. Any other method of delivery provided that the recipient has agreed to that method of delivery.
A document may be included in or delivered with a billing statement, newsletter, or other document that is delivered by one of the methods provided in the method list above 1-7.
For the purposes of this section, an unrecorded provision of the governing documents providing for a particular method of delivery does not constitute agreement by a member of the association to that method of delivery.
The Keys Breeze publication also meets the standards of the Corporations Code §5016. Notices and Reports Via Newsletters, that applies to California Homeowners Association for a Common Interest Development. Code §5016: A notice or report mailed or delivered as part of a newsletter, magazine or other organ regularly sent to members shall constitute written notice or report pursuant to this division when addressed and mailed or delivered to the member, or in the case of members who are residents of the same household and who have the same address on the books of the corporation, when addressed and mailed or delivered to one of such members, at the address appearing on the books of the corporation.
In meeting these “Official Communication” requirements, TKPOA has utilized the Keys Breeze for Civil Code §4360. Notice and Approval of Rule Change by Board of Directors. Ideally, this method would be utilized for limited rule changes of no more than a page of copy. In doing so, the TKPOA can save money on mailing and staff costs to prepare rules change mailings.
Based on ongoing updating and adding to our rules, the TKPOA Board of Directors, Architectural Control Committee (ACC) and TKPOA Community members are all looking to improve the Tahoe Keys for all of its members. Not only to improve safety, but to maintain costs of operating the Association as well as maintain your property values. If you need a copy of the current TKPOA Association Operating Rules, Architectural Control Rules (ACR), BYLAWS, Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&R’s) and Governing Documents they can be found on the TKPOA website: www.TKPOA. com or contact the TKPOA Pavilion Office: Monday through Friday 8:30 am–4:30 pm at (530) 542-6444.
