CAT MOUNTAIN VIEW
JANUARY 2016
VOLUME 4, NUMBER 1
Happy New Year! I hope you enjoyed the Holidays and I would like to wish you all Healthy and Happy New Year! Our Holiday party was a huge success! Thank you to all who came to help us celebrate the end of the year. A special thanks to our Social Committee Chair, Charlene Casillas and her team of elves that helped decorate the clubhouse, prepare food and clean up. If you have made a New Years resolution to meet your neighbors and get involved in the community, please check out the social committee news and events page for more information. We have lots of free neighborhood activities that are worthy of your attention and if you would like to start a group or activity that is of interest to you please let Charlene know and she will help you promote it. During the end of December we made some repairs to broken walls along the clubhouse parking lot and in Mount Bonnell Cove. We are moving forward on the repair of our wall along Twin Valley Drive that collapsed in the October storms. I don’t have a schedule for the repairs just yet but hope it will begin soon into the New Year. The Annual Meeting of the Members for the Association is scheduled for February 17th, 2016 and we will be electing 3 seats on the Board of Directors. We will likely be losing one or more directors this year. Anyone who would like to serve the community on the Board of Directors is encouraged to send in a nomination form by January 4th. The nomination form was published in last month’s issue of the newsletter or contact Jesse at the clubhouse. Please consider serving. A background in accounting and/or legal matters is a plus and would complement the talents of the

existing Board. After serving the past 4 years, I can say that I am proud of the job done by the current Board. They have managed our neighborhood and its assets with a conservative, long term approach. Nominations are due January 4th and ballots will be sent out shortly after that date. Please return your proxy immediately so we can verify we have a quorum. We are also looking for a newsletter editor to help oversee the publishing of the Cat Mountain View. You would work with the Communications Committee and publish a simple 4-8 page newsletter every month. Our publisher Peel Inc. actually does the publication work; we just have to organize the content for them. Typically it consists of the social (wine, book, yoga, tennis) information and presidents message along with information from the manager. If you have any interest in helping out please contact Jesse. Don’t forget you can stay updated on happenings in the neighborhood via our “Cat Mountain Community” FaceBook Page or by joining our neighborhood on NEXTDOOR. com. There is good local information as well as police related information available to you on the site. Lastly, I would like to thank all the board members who have worked with me all year to maintain the quality of life here in Cat Mountain Villas. It’s been a pleasure working with you all and Jesse this year! Best Regards, Bryan Harter Cat Mountain HOA | President
