Message from your HOA President
Season’s Greetings, I would like to take this opportunity to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas. I know that there are some in our neighborhood who do not share our faith, so I will wish you a happy holiday season. I hope you are enjoying the new Christmas decorations. I think that they really make our community stand out. Christmas is the season of giving. Regardless of your faith, please remember those less fortunate than yourselves. There are plenty of good charities to choose from, but as a Marine, I would be remiss if I didn’t put in a plug for Toys for Tots. Also, if you have spare change, drop some money in the Salvation Army buckets. They really do a great service to our community at large. The Board is continuing our effort to improve the neighborhood. Later in the newsletter, you will see photos of some of the recent improvements we have made. The items missing will be coming out in future newsletters as the projects are completed. We have approved a new roof to be installed over the patio at the Recreation Center. The Monuments at the entry from Skinner Road have been repositioned to improve visibility and the beds are being reworked. The letter you see in the newsletter is a sample of the number of positive comments we have received on the new playground surfacing at the Recreation Center. I have received reports that people are using the facility more than ever. In fact, we have had such overwhelming support that the Board is discussing which playground should be next. The photo can only let you see the result. You should check it out yourself if you have not already done so.
Happy Holidays! December 2012
Remember that our next HOA meeting will be January 23rd at 7:00 PM in the Recreation Center. Everyone who signs in and stays until the end of the open session is entered into a drawing for a gift card. Take Care and God Bless, Dennis R Brewer President, Cypress Mill Homeowner’s Association.
NEW HOLIDAY DECORATIONS AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD
By the time you receive this newsletter, you will probably have noticed the new decorations around the entrances and clubhouse. Thank you to the Gail Norris and Carolyn Hoffman for encouraging the HOA board to make these purchases.

HOMEOWNER LETTER
Hi Mike, Just a quick note to let you know how much I, my other Mom (and Dad) and friends LOVE the new playground!! It’s incredible! Safer, softer, more fun and just 100 times better! My one year old plays happily for over an hour there, he never plays that long with anything!! He walks better because of it, honestly! He sleeps better (expect Christmas cookies for that one), it’s wonderful and we love it! We use it at least once a day! Thank you a hundred times for this vast improvement! When will the one on the other side be done? Please thank the board; changes like these are what make this neighborhood a better place! We’ve been able to make new friends there already because so many people are enjoying our new community space. Keep improvements like these coming; it makes the families that live here even happier to be a part of this great community! :)

FINANCIAL DUTIES OF YOUR HOA
Your HOA’s board has a duty to collect monthly association dues and will take necessary steps to recover any missed payments. Your homeowners association (HOA) has bills to pay: heat, electricity, landscaping, maintenance, repairs, employees and possibly more depending on your community’s unique features. As a homeowner, you pay a portion of those fees - your HOA dues - each month. When you fall behind on your payments, it becomes harder for the HOA to maintain the community and other homeowners usually end up paying more to cover your missed payments. To help recover these funds, HOAs can take
8
a number of different avenues, depending on the association’s governing documents and state and federal laws. What to expect if you stop paying your monthly HOA dues HOA boards often take quick action after a missed payment and typically will follow steps of increasing severity to recover those payments. Generally, here’s what you can expect: 1. A letter from your HOA board stating your account is in arrears. The letter may also state steps they will take to try to collect those funds. 2. Charge you late fees and interest on missed payments. 3. Suspend your rights as a homeowner in the community. This could include your voting rights on community issues and your ability to use common areas, like a clubhouse, workout facility or pool. 4. Collect rents directly from your tenant if you rent your unit and apply them to your unpaid dues. Once you account is back in the black, any remaining funds collected from your tenant will be returned to you. 5. File a lien on your property. If you sell your property, the lien and any associated attorney or filing fees, will direct escrow companies to pay the HOA its share before you get any remaining sale proceeds. 6. Foreclose on your property. Again, state laws vary on this and HOAs use this option only when necessary, as the HOA then becomes responsible for all taxes and utilities on the property, as well as selling the property. What to do if you cannot pay your HOA dues While paying any housing-related costs first, including your monthly association dues, should be a top priority when your budget is tight, there are steps you should take if you know you won’t be able to pay your HOA dues: 1. Don’t wait until that first missed payment. As soon as you know you’ll be unable to pay, contact your board to let them know. 2. Ask your board to work with you on a solution, such as a payment plan. 3. Ask if the board will waive late fees. This is likely a possibility if you are open and honest from the beginning. 4. File for bankruptcy. This last resort option still puts you at risk for foreclosure and your unpaid dues will likely be included in your Chapter 13 repayment agreement. Talk to a bankruptcy attorney if you feel this is your only alternative. This article contains general information. Individual financial situations are unique; please, consult your financial advisor or tax attorney before utilizing any of the information contained in this article.

Cypress Mill
Though Black Friday has passed, there is still plenty of shopping left to do. As you are out shopping, be sure not to leave any presents in plain view within your vehicle. If you must take packages to your vehicle during a shopping trip, place them in your trunk and then move the vehicle to another location. If you have an SUV or truck, like I do, try to cover the packages as best you can to disguise them. Always be aware of your surroundings and if you see something suspicious, get to a safe area with other people around and call security or 911 if you feel threatened. It may be harmless, but it is better to let professionals figure that out. In your home, do not display presents under a tree where people can see them from outside. A lit up Christmas tree looks beautiful in your front window, but also invites intruders to see what is under your tree. Also, remember fire safety in the fireplace, with decorations and on your tree. Do not overload outlets and check all extension cords for wear. If you have a live tree, make sure that you are giving it water. If it starts to dry out, you could be at risk that the lights could ignite the needles.

DECORATING SAFETY TIPS
Please be especially careful while decorating your home. We love the lights and many people enjoy driving around in the evening to see the decorations. However, when hanging and removing the lights from the house, heed the warning on your ladders. It is funny to watch the movies where the guy falls from the roof hanging on a strand of lights, but it is not funny in real life. Do not risk a broken bone or worse that could happen from a fall.

NEW YEAR’S EVE FIREWORK SAFETY
Fireworks-related injuries are most common on and around holidays associated with fireworks celebrations, especially July 4th and New Year’s Eve. The following tips may help ensure your safety with regard to fireworks: • The best way to enjoy fireworks is to visit public fireworks displays put on by professionals. • If you plan to use fireworks, make sure they are legal in your area. • Never light fireworks indoors or near dry grass. • Always have a bucket of water and/or a fire extinguisher nearby. Know how to operate the fire extinguisher properly. • Do not wear loose clothing while using fireworks. • Stand several feet away from lit fireworks. • If a device does not go off, do not stand over it to investigate it. Put it out with water and dispose of it. • Always read the directions and warning labels on fireworks. If it is not marked with the contents, directions and a warning label, do not light it. • Supervise children around fireworks at all times.
Mail Boxes and Lamp Poles
These are not meant for commercial advertisements and signs, handmade or printed and are unsightly. If you see commercial advertising signs, please take a moment to remove them… your neighbors will appreciate it. Also, please remember to remove your garage sale sign as soon as your sale is over. The same applies to lost pet signs. Please do not leave these signs up longer than necessary.

How to make it: Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium-size bowl. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar, then stir in the eggs and vanilla extract. Add the flour mixture, one third at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gather the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic and chill for at least 2 hours. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Roll the dough into a 1/4-inch thickness between sheets of waxed paper. Remove the top sheet. Use a butter knife to cut out 3-1/4-inch-tall triangles.

Place the triangles on lightly greased cookie sheets 1 inch apart. Insert a craft stick three quarters of the way under each cookie. Bake for about 10 minutes or until the cookie edges turn light brown. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the pan and then transfer them to a rack to cool completely. Now your kids can decorate the tree pops with piped-on icing and candy “lights.” Makes 5 dozen.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE
In this month’s issue, we are honored to mention two residents who, over a period of several years, have worked mostly behind the scenes to make our neighborhood a better place to live. They are Carolyn Hoffman and Gail Norris. Carolyn Hoffman: For several years, Carolyn worked at administrative assistance at the recreation center. Not only did she take care of all the paperwork, but was invariably available after hours to answer questions or take care of minor emergencies that popped up from time to time. If there were any issue, Carolyn would find a solution. She made sure that contractors were there on time to do their job, carpets were cleaned, fitness room was kept clean and fresh, lost security cards were replaced and generally acted as caretaker for the recreation center. She was heavily involved in all the

Gail Norris: Those who know Gail, know that she has always been vocal about her concerns for the wellbeing of our neighborhood. A few years ago when asked to join the HOA board as a member at large, she was immediately given the task of finding a solution to the ongoing fence issue. After hours of pouring through the several different sets of bylaws dealing with fence repair/replacement, she formed a committee which, to make a long story short, led to the Cypress Rose Hill beautification project. Thank you Gail for all your efforts. Gail also worked with Carolyn on securing new decorations this December for the Cypress Mill entrances. Gail and other committee members restarted the July 4th celebrations a few years ago and although that baton has now been passed on, the format was set and it’s now a very successful family event. Gail is also a regular attendee at the monthly HOA board meetings. With a background in accounting, she keeps a close eye on budgetary items. Kudos to Carolyn and Gail for being good neighbors and truly making a difference. If you know of someone or a local organization that deserves recognition for their contributions to the wellbeing of others, please send an email to Mike Crahan with details and/or pictures.

GARDENING TIPS FOR DECEMBER
• If a long flowering period is desired, pansies should be placed in their permanent beds not later than this month. Fertilize monthly with manure, super-phosphate or a liquid high-phosphate product. Keep flowers picked for more bloom. • Take tulips out of cold storage and plant late this month. • Fertilize established trees, spring-blooming shrubs, spurias and sweet peas (after they are a foot tall) with a fertilizer such as 13-13-13; Louisiana iris with cotton seed meal and manure. • Azaleas and camellias may be moved now. Keep moist to lesson cold weather damage. May acidify again. • Last month to plant early blossoming spring bulbs, speciosum and other varieties of lilies. Mulch. • Water plants well before a freeze; dry roots are easily damaged. • Don’t forget to provide food and fresh water for birds. More birds die from lack of water than lack of food.
