This is the official web site of the Barton Creek Property Owners' Association.  It was developed to provide property owners at Barton Creek Lakeside with information and documents about the association as well as the process and procedures for building new or add-on construction property within the development.  In addition, the site provides copies of previous newsletters, pages for men's and ladies' golf and events of interest to property owners and a list of contacts, including handymen and service companies with whom other members have had satisfactory experiences.  If you have questions about your association or comments about our site, don't hesitate to let us know.

Board Update - December 5, 2011

To All Barton Creek Lakeside POA Members:

I would like to thank everyone that took time to attend the POA's annual meeting yesterday either in person or by proxy. Those proxies are important if you aren't going to attend. You came through for us and a 46.5% quorum number was reached where 40% is required. Thanks to Sheri Munsch (and her great team of "checker iners") and Randy Whitehead for their efforts to acquire the necessary proxies.

For those that couldn't attend, a copy of the presentation used can be found on this main page of the website  (below).  The financial package will be available on this main page later today or tomorrow. The nutshell view of the meeting for those that don't want to download them follows. Please note the To Do Item for you in #7:

1. The POA is in great financial shape

2. Elected Tom Neslage and Harvey Cody to the board to replace the retiring Robert Morrow and David Lindsay

3. Reviewed accomplishments for 2011 (see presentation)

4. We regretfully accepted Terri Ackers' resignation as landscape committee chairman (she will stay on the committee for continuity) and recognized her 10 years of service to BC Lakeside

5. Discussed a launch ramp extension proposal for the marina area - sounded okay to more than it didn't; general agreement to not partner with Lake Cliff in any way to permit them using the ramp. It was felt that having one of the lowest water boat launch ramps on this side of the lake is something that provides BC Lakeside with a level of exclusivity, positively impacts our property values, and overall makes the neighbor more attractive to those considering the area.

6. Covered the intention to upgrade the communication capability with Blackboard Connect sometime in early 2012 (more in presentation)

7. Held a lively discussion about CC&Rs. See the chart in the presentation on page 11 for the key CC&Rs addressed. Most of the discussion focused on resident parking of their vehicles in driveways overnight. There were some that wanted a strict enforcement of all CC&Rs and others that wanted it handled with a velvet glove to keep the friendly nature of our neighborhood. It was agreed that you all should put your thoughts about enforcement in an email and send it to Sheri, reply to this email blast, or to me and we will share them all with the board. We meet on Thursday. Get your comments to us!

Again, thank you all for attending the meeting if you did and thanks to the many, many of you that have served the community on committees and projects this past year.
