Rose Hill Residents,

Aah, spring is right around the corner, a time for making choices and taking inspired action that will enhance your community experience. Perhaps that’s why our Annual Meetings are required to be held in March.

2023 Board Elections

In preparation for our Board elections for 2023, we held two Meet the Candidates meetings which many residents attended. Their questions to our candidates were well-thought-out. Many residents were also able to watch from home as the meetings were aired live on the Facebook announcement page. The Annual Meeting was held on Tuesday, March 28, 2023. The following candidates were chosen to serve on the Board: Michelle Layman, Marguerite Carver and Susan Tucker. Congratulations ladies!

I want to thank all candidates for their interest in serving on the board. It takes a special person to apply for the Board of Directors. They must be prepared to sit in front of the membership and answer a wide array of questions. These are people who have answered the call to lead and their willingness to throw their names in the hat should be commended. I would like to encourage candidates who were not selected to consider running again next year or serve on one of our numerous committees.

Last, I want to thank Sean Casey for his service on the Board for the past 6 years, and Cathy O’Connor and Dawn Burke for serving on the board for the last two years. Also, thank you to Dawn for assuming the role and responsibility of interim Board President for the past couple of months. You stepped up to fill a very vital role on the board and we all appreciate your willingness to lead us through the Annual Meeting. Sean, Cathy and Dawn, your presence will be missed on the board, you all have been integral to the important advances we have made.

Board service is one of the toughest volunteer roles of all, and you performed with dedication and tenacity. You distinguished yourself as a judicious steward of our organization and never flinched in the face of difficult decisions. Thank you for serving!

Transfer Fee

The Transfer Fee Referendum passed with 618 votes! The new transfer fee of 1.5 times the annual assessment and the community enhancement fee of $1,500 will go into effect immediately. Thank you to all who voted.

Long Range Planning Committee

I’d like to take this opportunity to highlight the efforts and hard work of our Long Range Planning Committee. The LRPC has had a busy first quarter. Major enhancement projects have been identified and committee members have been diligently researching and pursuing recommendations both for the community and the Board.
