2026  

• Director, Don Steffen, resigned from the board on August 1, 2025. We thank him for all the years of service on the board. 

• The board appointed Kyle Fischer to fill the position vacated by Don.

• I especially want to thank Pam Simpson for all the time she spends on everything she does to keep our HOA running smoothly. 

• And a very special thanks to Victor Alexander for all the years (almost ten years) as property manager.  The board and owners all appreciate all that he has done over the years.

We wish him the best as he “retires” from the property manager position. 
Victor will still be involved as he is still a director on the board.

 

We have accomplished a great deal in the later part of 2025 and so far in 2026.

Jason Darnell/Darnell Construction and team have continued work toward the completion of the derecho reconstruction and I am happy to report that we are nearing the end of the reconstruction work with a few projects yet to complete.

 Completed projects:

• Front entrance Concrete stoop repair.

• Front entrance railing replacement as needed for safety.

• Tree work, trimming, removal, stump grinding.

• Common Hallway Carpet Cleaning.

We still have projects to complete.

  This is pending approval from the City on the permits due to the new requirements for drives.

Insurance coverage and Loss assessment insurance
Regarding insurance, our monthly premium for our buildings will be renewed in July 2026 with Farm Bureau Financial Services.  If there were a catastrophic wind or hail event, such as the derecho in 2020, the deductible for each building would be 5% of the value of the building. A loss such as this might result in a loss assessment to each owner for a portion of the deductible and any other expenses that the insurance company would not cover.
The board of directors suggests that every owner contact their personal insurance agent to discuss the loss assessment coverage on their policy. Farm Bureau Financial Services, the HOA insurance carrier, strongly advises a minimum of $25,000 loss assessment insurance coverage. This coverage is very inexpensive to add or increase.
