A&A Committee
COMMUNICATIONS MMI November was a busy month for us. We have welcomed 5 new Phase Representatives from Phase 3 and Phase 5. Last month we reported that Outdoor Resort welcomed over 100 new owners since February 2017. These new owners were hungry for information, so we developed a new program to introduce them to our resort. Our “Lunch and Learn” sessions held in November were a new event. It was a casual yet informative experience and was well received by our new members. The first Lunch and Learn was to meet the Board of Directors, B RIAN C ANFIELD our Board Chair introduced everyone on the Board and explained their responsibilities. C LINT A THERTON our General Manager and G ARY M ARSHALL our Activities Director gave an overview of their roles in the organization. The second Lunch and Learn was with Gary from the Activities Office, the Golf Committee, Tennis Committee and Pickleball Committee. The third was with Clint, our GM giving an overview of the Operations of the Resort. M IKE W ILSON , Community Standards Coordinator gave a great overview of what he has been doing this past summer regarding compliance issues, and how he is approaching his new role here at ORPS. T ED W ILSON , the Chair of the Architecture and Aesthetics (A&A) Committee gave his overview of the A&A process and how and when to obtain permits. We are looking for feedback on these information sessions, and if positive we will hold more of them and may open them up to a wider audience. Topic ideas are always welcome. Future activities for the Communications Committee in 2018 include: Photo Directory on-site registration: January 13-16 Organizing the Candidates Forum: January 22 Hosting the New Owners Reception: Feb 12 Picnic in the Neighborhood: Feb 18 If you are interested in being part of this very important Committee, join us at our next meeting on January 8 @ 10AM in the OL, Multipurpose R OOM , ES J UDY F ROESE , Lot 1057 Secretary, Communications Committee, Lot 1057
A&A Committee volunteers have been very busy this season reviewing over 100 lot modification permit applications. This activity is due, in part, to the large number of new owners this season and their desire to improve and customize their lots.
HEALTH & FITNESS COMMITTEE Our biggest news to share this month is the increase in our membership. After the January 15 th Board of Directors meeting we will have nine members: B OB R AYMOND , C ELESTE R EYNOLDS , C HAVALLA B ASSHAM , C HERI B OUDIN , G ABE F URTADO , M ARY E ASTWOOD , S HERRI R OBSON , T ERRY H UFF , and myself. C ELESTE and my terms will be ending March 2018 and we have decided not to renew. C HAVALLA has agreed to assume my role as chair and I am pleased to share that she has been in the fitness and health industry for some time so her knowledge and experience will really enhance this committee. C HERI B OUDIN , one of our new members also has been in the fitness and health industry so she, too, will be a great contributor to this committee. I want to thank all of our committee members for volunteering to provide advice and oversight to the Board of Directors for the operation, maintenance, and management of the Fitness Center. With adoption of the Restatement of the A&A Rules and Regulations, owners are now allowed to place a shade structure on their lot. Interest is keen and several shade structure permit applications are already in the approval process. Shade structures must not exceed 120 sq. ft., must be set back from the street property line a minimum of 20 feet, and approval of shade structure placement on a lot will take into consideration lot shape, location, proximity to common areas and the golf course, and placed to minimize impacts on neighbors. The full rule on shade structures is in the Restated A&A Rules which can be accessed on the owner’s web page. A special Application for Shade Structure is required and may be obtained at the Administration Check-In Counter. It is strongly recommended that this application be completed and approved before purchasing your shade structure. T ED W ILSON A & A C HAIR
