Dear Community Members,

We would like to thank everyone who braved the wind and rain to attend the Homeowner Association meeting last Tuesday. As a Board, we are happy to see the interest and level of involvement in making Wyngate Commons a great community. Since there were many who were not able to attend, this letter will outline the major announcements that were made at the meeting:

Street Representatives

  • We introduced the Street Representatives, who will be the primary contact person for all of your community related concerns. The included map will help you determine who your Street Rep is and how to contact them. They will be your resource in case of: landscaping issues, exterior lighting, community disturbances, etc. If they are unable to resolve your concern, they will elevate it to the HOA Board members. Please see included map and Street Rep Guide. These will also be indicated on the Wyngate Community Directory (coming soon).
  • Please use the Submission Form (copies are included in this packet) to notify your Street Rep of any concerns. This is critical to use in resolving any issues, concerns, suggestions, etc. especially for a brand new community. There will be no issues considered for resolution unless properly documented via these forms. Please be as complete in your remarks as possible. These are to be submitted to your Street Rep directly.
  • Submission Forms are also to be used for requests, suggestions, comments, etc.
  • To better help and promote our new community, we will be providing Community Maps and a Community Directory with Street Rep, Board and all Homeowners info that live within our community.
  • This community info is for Homeowners of the Wyngate Commons ONLY. In order to preserve the privacy of our community members, the Community Directory is not to be distributed outside of the Community for ANY reason.
  • We have most of your information, but we have some gaps. Please get a hold of your Street Reps and provide that information so that we know who everyone is.
  • If you would like to receive the HOA Monthly Newsletter (coming in the next few months) via email, please also include your email address.
  • On the Community maps, we have labeled each Cluster or Block of homes by the letters “A” through “M”. Please note which Block you belong to and get to know you Street Reps well so we can handle any issues or concerns as quickly as possible.
  • We will be instituting a Neighborhood Watch program in 2008 and would like everyone to participate and give feedback on how to carry this out. Please submit any suggestions or interest in being involved.

Landscaping Update

  • The replacement of damaged fencing, concrete, grass, and trees is continuing. If you are aware of any issues that you think have escaped the attention of the Board members, please notify them by using a Submission Form, to be submitted to the Street Rep.
  • Winterization of the sprinkler system is underway and will be completed soon.
  • Your backyard has been designated as Limited Common space. This means that while you are entitled to use of the space, it remains the property of the community. As such,

- Your back yard must remain unlocked to allow access to the sprinkler control valves in case of emergencies. A broken pipe in your neighbor’s yard may be controlled from the box in your yard. If you have restricted access to the control box, you may become liable for the damage that is caused.

- Gates must remain unlocked so that landscaping maintenance can be performed. Exceptions to this rule must be approved by the Board.

  • Pet waste must be cleaned from all areas of the community, including back yards. Failure to do so will result in a fine.
  • Garbage cans should be returned to your garage promptly once they have been emptied. Also, please tightly bag all garbage that goes into your can. Doing so will minimize the amount of trash that gets spilled in the community.

Parking Policy / Enforcement

  • This is a two-car community and all cars should be parked in a garage. If you have vehicles that do not fit in your garage, a storage solution outside of the community should be arranged.
  • The CC&Rs and Draper City require that no street parking is allowed as it can impede emergency response crews and snow plowing efforts.
  • Enforcement of the existing parking restrictions will begin in earnest, effective November 15th.
  • Vehicles parked on the street or in the driveways will be towed or booted.
  • Visitor parking is available in specific locations throughout the community and should not be regularly used by homeowners. Any car that remains in visitor parking, without being moved, for more than 48 hours will be booted or towed.
  • Towing will initially occur between midnight and 6am until the effectiveness of the policy can be assessed.

Financial Overview and HOA Dues

  • HOA accounts are adequate and appropriate for the community’s needs.
  • HOA Dues are payable on the 1st of each month; as of the 10th of each month, a late fee is incurred.
  • A delinquent notice is mailed on the 10th of each month for all delinquent accounts.
  • We do not currently anticipate any changes to the accountant for our community. There will be no change in the address to which payments are sent. New coupon books will be mailed to all homeowners closer to the end of the year.

We appreciate the efforts that each of you have made to make this community a better place to live. We feel that it is a great community and we hope you feel the same way too. If you have any concerns or problems that we can address, please bring them to the attention of your Street Rep and we will all work to find a solution.

Sincerely,

Wyngate Commons HOA Board
