ANNOUNCEMENTS

(August 1, 2008)

More flexibility in paying HOA Dues

Village Association Management now has Online Assessment payment available directly to the secure Lockbox at First Bank HOA. First Bank is the bank used by Fall Creek Addition HOA, Inc. You will need your coupon payment book with your HOA identification number, account number and zip code to complete the process.
The Online payment system will allow you to make one-time payments, or to set up recurring payments semi-annually or annually on the date that you specify.
If you prefer to continue mailing checks, the coupon book mailing address is to a Lockbox (bank deposit center) in California. However, the management company is still locally owned and operated. If you do not want to mail checks to California, you may continue to them to the Garland, TX P.O. Box address.
Please remit payment by September 20th to avoid penalties.
Thank you for making Fall Creek Estates a wonderful neighborhood and a great place to live.

July 2008 Yard of the Month

Congratulations to 1502 Ravine Crossing for being July's Fall Creek Yard of the Month.

(May 03, 2008)

16 persons from 13 homes attended Tuesday's make-up Annual Meeting with proxies from 29 other homes for a total representation of 42 homes. However, 4 of the 42 homes were not eligible for voting on amendment changes due to not having their HOA dues current.

The proposed amendments to the DCCRs were not brought up for a vote due to insufficient representation from enough eligible homes (defined as homes with HOA dues current).

There was enough representation (25%) for a vote on two seats for the HOA Board. Chris Shane's and Rich Dietlin's seats were up. A motion to re-nominate Chris Shane was accepted by Chris Shane and motion was seconded. A motion to re-nominate Rich Dietlin was declined by Rich Dietlin. A motion to nominate Larry Sawyer was accepted by Larry Sawyer and motion was seconded. Voting for approval of the two nominees was passed.
