4 The Ripples // October 2023
From the General Manager, Mark Reid
As we are settling into the routines of the school year and winding down on big family trips and events, it is a good time to dust off the items we may have forgotten on the shelves, so to speak. In particular, our Rules & Regulations. It may seem like there are an overabundance of them, but they have been visited and revisited by the resident Board of Directors and staff time and time again, establishing their continued relevancy and necessity over the years. When you purchased your home in the Lakewood Community, you automatically became a member of the association and you became responsible for following all its rules and regulations. These rules and regulations are not meant to be seen as a sword hanging over our heads, but as a way to uphold the standards of the neighborhood and association for everyone. Everyone should want to follow the rules due to the fact that the primary purpose of having community rules and standards is to protect your investment as a homeowner.
Everyone should want to follow the rules due to the fact that the primary purpose of having community rules and standards is to protect your investment as a homeowner.
Some of the benefits of our rules and regulations are:
– To provide protection for the community
– To retain property values
– To give guidelines that are agreed upon as a community
– To allow enforcement when there is non-compliance
Like speeding on the highways during the pandemic, whenever you see laws not being enforced, you see a rapid increase in lawlessness. Enforcement of our rules and regulations is not always popular but it is critical to maintain the harmony of our community. Again, approved rules and regulations that everyone agrees to live by is the very essence of why people choose to live in a community that is managed by a Property Owners Association. This month, lets remind ourselves to show appreciation for the staff of our Community Services Department and take a moment to refresh yourself on the Lakewood Rules & Regulations which can be found in the lpoa.com under the Community tab then select Governing Documents. Following the rules is not optional, it is what you agreed to do.

This Issue
From the Boardroom
Debbie Stalnaker, Board President
Hello neighbors, October has arrived, bringing with it cooler days and the beauty of changing leaves. It is also the time of year when LPOA Committees, Staff and the Board are hard at work on putting together the 2024 Budget. This will all culminate with our annual Public Budget Meeting on November 2nd. If you want to know more about the budget process, I encourage you to read Mark’s article in the September issue of the Ripples. It is an informative and educational piece. In keeping with the “educational” theme, I chose this month to talk about what to expect when you attend a Board meeting. During my time on the board, I’ve witnessed that residents aren’t always sure when they can speak and who they should be addressing. I hope you will find this information interesting and informative as we embrace this fall season together.
Anatomy of a Board Meeting
Your LPOA/LHC Board is comprised of nine (9) directors. Each year, officers are elected by the board – President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer. These officers make up the Executive Committee. Meetings are facilitated by the President or other Officer. LPOA board meetings are scheduled for the second Thursday of every month, 6:30 PM at the clubhouse. The purpose of the meeting is to conduct the business of the LHC and LPOA. These meetings are held in open session, with all LPOA members invited to attend.
The agenda for the meeting is set the week prior by the Executive Committee. Residents, staff, and board members may all submit topics for the agenda. All submitted topics may not make it to the actual agenda.
The agendas and supporting documents are distributed to board members the week of the board meeting for review. This allows board members to review the documents, ask questions, and come to the meeting prepared to conduct business. Being prepared allows for quicker decisions and keeping the meeting moving forward.
We utilize Roberts Rules of Order, which provides common rules and procedures for deliberation, debate and improves the efficiency of our meetings. It is

considered the “standard” for facilitating discussions and group decision making.
Since the LPOA/LHC is governed by one board, each is conducted as a separate session. We start with the LHC business, then move to the LPOA. Each entity will follow the same format listed below.
Call to Order
The President or presiding chairperson calls the meeting to order.
Roll Call
Roll call is taken by the GM to establish a quorum. A quorum (five) is the minimum number of directors present to conduct business.
Communication from Membership
This is an opportunity for a resident to address the board. Raise your hand to be recognized by the President, then step forward and state your name, address and/ or lot number. Comments are typically limited to 2-3 minutes. Once you have made your comment, you will be thanked and will return to your seat. On occasion, a board member may ask a question, however, this is not meant to be an open dialogue with the board. If you have a topic that you wish to present to the board that bears

discussion, it should be submitted as an agenda topic in advance of the meeting. During the LHC session, comments should be limited to topics related to the golf course. During the LPOA session, all other association topics are welcome.
Communication from Board Members or Staff
This is an opportunity for a director or staff member to make any comments or updates.
Approval of Agenda
A motion is made to approve the agenda.
Items to Receive and File
Items included here may include Committee and Parcel meeting minutes, the Community Services report, etc. The Board has access to the supporting documents and the GM makes acknowledgement of receipt.
Consent Agenda
The consent agenda is used to streamline the meeting by collecting routine, non-controversial items into a group to be passed with a single motion and vote. These items may include Board meeting minutes, Executive Committee meeting minutes and Parcel and/or Committee member ratifications. An item can be removed from the consent agenda and discussed separately as a new business item.
Old Business
This is business from a previous meeting that has not been completed.
New Business
New business topics for discussion.
Adjournment
Meeting is closed.
At the adjournment of the LPOA session, residents are asked to leave, and the board goes into an Executive Session.
Executive Session – simply put, an executive session is a private meeting among the board that takes place outside of an open board meeting. Executive sessions are private because confidential, legal, or privileged information is discussed.

Rules
Written by Sean Bachtel, LPOA Director of Community Relations
Lakewood has a lot of rules and architectural guidelines, evolving over 50 years of member and committee input, and ultimately Board approval. I always joke that the first set of LPOA rules published in 1973 was probably a single page that simply said, “Behave yourselves”.
architectural guidelines and property maintenance codes. Lakewood is a big place, so it stands to reason that we have dozens of open violations at any given time. If a home is becoming a blighting factor, landscaping or trees are becoming unsightly, a lake infraction is observed, or any number of violations occur, we have to begin a detailed process according to the governing documents. This process includes detailed records of the violation and written notification with deadlines for remediation. This process of notification, if ignored or no remedied according to deadlines, can result in citations and points against the members LPOA account. An accumulation of 12 points in a calendar year results in a 90 day suspension of amenity privileges. Additionally, if you are a lessee of an LPOA Boat Slip, paragraph 10 of that agreement contains a list of the violations that can result in termination.
But, the reality is that whatever the first rules were, they evolved naturally over time, in order to reflect current times. For instance, there was once a rule that stated that pickup trucks couldn’t be stored on the property. Lakewood once only allowed wood, tile or slate roofing. Not that long ago, ARB/ARC meetings lasted hours because the committee had to review every application for house paint colors, roofing, and dead trees, most of which can now be approved by our staff without waiting for an ARB/ARC review meeting.
The Community Service Department is tasked with enforcement of the rules,
My goal is to issue zero violations, and instead to ensure that everyone is educated. I urge everyone to read your governing documents, and if you are ever in doubt, please call or email me and ask. It’s a lot better to get a quick answer than to begin a violation process that can result in a less than ideal outcome for everyone.
Go Chiefs!

Lakewood’s Architectural Review Committee (ARB/ARC) is currently looking to add a member to its talented group of volunteers. You can find the Committee Interest Form at www.lpoa.com or contact Sean Bachtel at sean@lpoa.com for details.

I look forward to hearing from any interested candidates. If you’d like to attend a meeting and observe before considering taking on the obligation, you are encouraged to do so.
