The annual meeting of the Lakewood Homeowners’ Association is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Sunday, April 28 at the Lakewood Clubhouse. All homeowners are encouraged to attend. On the agenda is the election of three board members and a new policy to levy fines for violations of HOA rules. Read the agenda, policy and other materials here. Without fines, the board’s only recourse to enforce HOA rules has been to file lawsuits, which can be expensive as well as unnecessary for minor violations. The packet mailed to homeowners has a directed proxy (or absentee ballot) for voting on the board vacancies and the new fine policy if you cannot attend. The policy requires an affirmative vote of 67 percent of owners, or 299 “yes” votes. Barbecue and pastries will be served.
