The Lakewood HOA has a new board. Lee Rutledge was elected to another two-year term, and Lakewood homeowner Shasi Wilson was elected for the first time at the annual meeting May 12.

Board officers for the 2025-26 term are:

• President: Lee Rutledge
• Vice President: Dave Brockman
• Secretary: John Harris
• Treasurer: Shasi Wilson
• Director At-Large: Shawn Jamail

The board thanked Michelle Polasek for her six years of outstanding service to our community with a framed certificate. Michelle was also board president for the last one-and-a-half years.

The sales are at 7511 Waldon Drive, 6307 Lakewood Hollow and 6608 Robbie Creek Cove. They end about noon today.

Have you heard about Town Square yet? TownSq, as it’s known, is a web app that’s designed for easy communication between HOAs and residents. And it’s coming soon to Lakewood.

It’s easy to sign up. First, complete this consent form and type in your email address. After TownSq’s scheduled launch on May 20, download the TownSq app from the App Store on your iPhone or Google Play on your Android. Then you will receive a welcome email from TownSQ with instructions on how to create a password to access your account.

Lakewood’s TownSq will be easy to use. Look for easy access to HOA documents, simple processes for architectural requests, an event calendar and even a pet registry. Learn more here and stay tuned!

The pool is looking good. And about good as new — with a new floor, new tile, new fence for the children’s pool… and water! But it’s not quite ready. Next steps in this comprehensive renovation include power washing and patching parts of the deck this coming week. More updates coming soon.

The annual meeting of the Lakewood Homeowners Association is scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday, May 12 at the Lakewood Clubhouse. The election of two board members and an update on community projects are on the agenda.

Two board positions currently held by Lee Rutledge and Michelle Polasek are open this year, and three candidates are running. Lee Rutledge is seeking re-election, and Dustin Drawhorn and Shasi Wilson are seeking a position.

Michelle Polasek is nearing the end of her term. Rachel Upshaw recently resigned from the board due to her new work schedule, and John Harris was named to complete the year left on her term.

Learn more about the three candidates for the positions and please read the mailer that’s arriving at your home soon. It includes a directed proxy (absentee ballot) for the board election. It has been difficult to achieve a quorum to conduct business at the annual meeting, so please submit your proxy/ballot even if you plan to attend.
