Sheds, board treasurer and more
The vote is in.  The shed amendment failed.  The final vote was 50 yes votes, 21 no votes and one ballot was returned without a yes or no vote.  At least 95 votes were needed for the measure to pass.  

The board is looking for a new neighborhood treasurer and police think they know who knocked down the Secret Wood's back entrance sign.  Read about it in the monthly minutes.

Voice your opinion on the proposed covenant changes
A draft of proposed changes to the Secret Woods Homeowners covenants is now available for review by clicking here.  A majority of homeowners in attendance at the annual meeting voted in favor of drafting an amendment to the covenants that would allow sheds in the neighborhood.  Once everyone has commented and the final draft is finished it will be mailed out to all homeowners.  In order for the amendment to pass 75 percent of all homeowners will have to vote in favor of the change.  

Please take a few minutes to read over the proposed changes and then vote in our non-binding poll.  You can also submit your own comments by clicking here.  To read what others have written click here.

Any suggested changes to the proposed amendment will be discussed at the next board meeting on July 12.
