THE BOULDERS CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION
– MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS –
Dear Boulders Owners,
Several items of importance:
Board Election
We will have two seats open on the board this year. Please consider volunteering your time for the community. We need to have an engaged board to continue to make progress. The application form has been posted on TownSq and has been mailed to you. Deadline to apply is October 15.
Winter Reminder
Overnight temperatures are beginning to fall. Keep your thermostat at minimum 55 degrees to avoid freezing of the pipes.
Maintenance
Over the past decade or so our previous property managers struggled to find sufficient resources to adequately maintain our property. As a result, maintenance lagged, and we now have a LOT of work to be done. We’ve added a full-time maintenance person and are utilizing outside contractors, and as a result have done a lot of catch-up maintenance this summer. However, it is simply not realistic, both physically and financially, to be able to catch up on all of it in one year.
I am asking for your patience with this process. As I’ve been communicating, we have entered a multi year, multi-phase period. We have started concrete repair, roof replacement, and deck repair and refurbishment. Gutters and heat tape will be replaced in October. Our plan to do touch-up paint on buildings faltered a bit, partly because the decks were in such bad shape. Todd has started painting front-facing surfaces on entryways…landings will have to wait. Our Firewise Committee has added address labels to our bear boxes and cleared the brush on our southern side. They are working on the removal of dead trees.
We understand that there are still landings and stairs and sidings to paint, and more decks and railings and concrete to fix. Bear boxes need paint and…well, I think you get the picture. These and other maintenance activities will all continue next year, to the extent that we can afford them. We will continue to prioritize safety issues.
Please be kind to Todd (our maintenance person) and the people who work on our property. They are only there to help us.
Vandalism
We continue to have instances of vandalism at the pool and hot tub. We have fixed some of the entrance weaknesses but we still need to have owners keep an eye on it and report people damaging this area. We continue to investigate the appropriate level and type of security cameras.
Interior Changes
Please remember that if you plan to have work done on the interior of your unit it must be done by a contractor licensed in California and Insured. If you plan to make any changes to the interior of your unit, consult the CC&Rs, Article III. In many cases you must fill out an Architectural Request Form before you begin work. If you are in an upper unit you may NOT replace carpet with another material unless you receive approval from the Architectural Committee.
All of this is clearly articulated in the CC&Rs and the Rules. It is the owner’s responsibility to read and follow our CC&Rs and Rules. Both are posted on our website: truckeeboulders.com
Our Community Website
Our website includes a lot of helpful information about our community, including Board meeting minutes. Please familiarize yourself with the site. It can be reached from your browser at: Truckeeboulders.com The password is: myhoa123
Maintenance Requests
Please make requests for maintenance through our TownSq app. If you haven’t signed up, please do so…we are available to help with this.
As always, the Board members are available to take your comments and questions.
