The Association continues to seek volunteers to fill vacancies on the Board and on all standing committees.
Treasurer’s Report
-
Financial Status: Expenses remain within budget, and income is meeting forecasts.
-
Delinquencies: Two homeowner accounts remain a concern but are being managed.
-
Capital Reserve & Projects: Reserve funding levels, coupled with lower oil prices, may allow the Board to advance the road surface treatment project to summer 2026 (originally planned for 2027). Advancing this project will help prevent further road surface deterioration.

-

Design Review Committee (DRC)
-
Lot 32: The homeowner’s request to install a net along the side of the home (to protect from golf ball damage) was provisionally approved in July, pending detailed design specifications and a project timeline. No further updates have been received.
Homeowner Input
-
Landscape Funds Concern:
A homeowner raised an allegation regarding the misuse of HOA funds for private landscape work. The Board categorically denied that any funds were used for individual homeowner projects. All HOA-funded landscape work is strictly limited to common areas. -
Parking and Property Upkeep:
Concerns were raised regarding ongoing non-compliance with parking regulations and poor exterior maintenance by some residents.
The Board acknowledged these challenges, noting:-
The growing number of rental properties with limited owner oversight
-
Absentee owners with poor property management.
-
Increasing state-imposed restrictions on HOA enforcement
-
A shortage of committee volunteers
The Board reaffirmed its commitment to enforcement efforts and encouraged all homeowners to assist by reporting violations to Property Manager Alexis Enos.

New Business
1. New Board Member
Homeowner Anne Keshishian volunteered to serve the remainder of the term vacated by Todd Berson. The motion to appoint her was unanimously approved. Her term will expire in January 2027.
2. 2026 Board Meeting Schedule
Tentative meeting dates are set for early May, October, and November 2026, pending room availability at the Oro Valley Library.
3. Naranja Wall Project
The 560-foot perimeter wall along Naranja Drive requires stucco repair and repainting.
Per HOA Resolution #1998-01 (Wall Policy), perimeter walls located on homeowners’ property lines are the sole responsibility of the homeowner. Because the Naranja wall faces a public street, any maintenance and color choices must maintain a consistent appearance along the full length of the wall. Homeowners along Naranja Drive will be responsible for associated costs, subject to Design Review Committee approval.
This item was tabled for further discussion.
4. 2026 Street Maintenance Project
The planned street surface treatment, originally scheduled for 2027, may be moved up to 2026 to minimize deterioration.
-
Key factors: Oil prices, total project costs, and available funds.
-
Next steps: The bidding process will begin in January 2026, with a go/no-go decision expected by March 2026.
5. 2026 Assessment (Dues)
A 5.7% annual increase ($20/year) was approved by the Board.
-
New Assessment: $370 per year ($92.50 per quarter)
-
Rationale: Inflationary costs and the need to strengthen Capital Reserve Fund contributions.
This increase is within the Board’s authority and does not require membership approval.
