The CC has four members: Carol LeBlanc, Shannon Tully, Leslie Johnson and Jim Joyce. The CC meets as/if required as most business items we can manage via electronic means.
CC manages the HOA’s web site http://www.kensingtonhomeowners.com, hosted by GoDaddy. We received 565 hits in April, 2022. Our monthly overall average is around 1500 hits. Our account is paid until March 2025.
The Groups.io HOA communication system continues to work well. We currently have 288 HOA email addresses in the system. Griops.io is being used by 187 HOA messages exchanged so far in 2022. We continue to have good support from our residents in using the system and we hope all new residents are getting the word to sign up. There was one apparent bogus attempt to sign on to the Group in April, there always seems to be at least one a month.
Our Twitter account has had 736 Tweets since it was activated in March 2013. We have 38 followers on Twitter. In addition, our Twitter account is linked to our web site, you do not have to have a Twitter account to read our Tweets, just go the web site Twitter tab.
The HOA management of the basketball court (BBC) has been assumed by Mike Cole and any further reporting on BBC issues will be provided by him.
Three Nest cameras are installed in the vicinity of the Billberry overflow lot and gazebo but as of this date two of the cameras appear to be having problems. Two Nest cameras are also installed over the BBC, but one of those appear to be off the air as well. Live video coverage of the five cameras is linked to the HOA website 24/7 using Cox Communications. The stand-alone Flock Safety video capture system continues to operate without problem. We capture about 6000 data points a month based on an average of 200 Route 50 entrances per day via Woodberry Meadows. The BOD needs to be thinking about a going-forward camera maintenance and operational plans for these six units.
We are planning a Spring-Summer community garage sale on Saturday 25 June, 2022.
