A Note from the Executive Director

Kyle Bodyfelt, Executive Director

At the April board meeting, the Board of Directors adopted the 2024 Proposed Strategic Plan Process and Recommendations.

This is a preliminary document that serves to relaunch the Strategic Planning process. It reflects early community feedback related to both tactical and strategic initiatives.

Much more work and community input is needed to develop a credible roadmap for Lincoln Hills’ future. At this point, it is difficult to anticipate all actions required over the five-year planning horizon. It is recommended that a stepwise incremental, multi-year approach be used by planning each year in succession to ensure that the fixes and improvements made are sustained going forward.

The Executive Director is responsible for the implementation of this plan. There will be two components of the plan process that will take place in parallel: 1) operational items related to staff will be managed directly by the Executive Director, who will have responsibility for staff deliverables and results, 2) the Executive Director is also responsible for delivery of a Board Approved Master Plan with the assistance and input from an ad-hoc task force/committee that is being created following the adoption of this document.

It is also recommended that major capital projects be deferred until operational improvements are in place and a market-driven Master Plan is in place. This does not deter the Association from talking about the infrastructure projects necessary for the use and enjoyment of the existing amenities. Any requested/needed spending should be the exception and evaluated using the criteria of safety, security, or accessibility. In summary, focus on the basics before adding any new capital improvements.

The Board of Directors looks forward to partnering with the Association membership and our Association staff to communicate the plan and receive valuable input.
