The board of the civic association is all resigning, with the exception of the treasurer. We have been the board for 2 years now but can no longer do it for various reasons. We sent out a flyer and held a general meeting in April to elect new officers. Out of 250 families only 7 families showed up; 4 of those families were the officers. 

We are not a usual civic association. We have to have one to maintain our roads and drainage systems or else we will have to pay back the original grant we received to have the roads and drains fixed in the first place.  This is really not about people wanting to live in a nice neighborhood, which is a very nice thing to do; it is about avoiding a substantial expense for each of our residents.

We need a new board to continue moving forward. 

I can no longer do the job. I have 4 small children and had to go back to work (when I took the job I was suppose to stay home, I could not). I can not run a civic association, do my job and take care of 4 very small girls - it's just too much, and the civic association is not being taken care of properly. 

We are having a meeting on May 6th at 7:00pm in the Community Center. Flyers will be mailed out shortly stating this. We need everyone to come and people to step up to the plate to run things. This is our community and we need to take care of it unless we want to just pay about 4,000 dollars per household for it, and let it return to the ugly horrible conditions it use to be.

Sincerely,

Roberta Amian, Soon to be Former Civic Association President
