A Summary of the February Board Meeting
• The Board has unanimously appointed a new Treasurer – Lou Ann Kelleher. There is still one open, At-Large position available on the Board.
• Meeting attendance was John Anthone – Vice President, Debbie Meienberg – Events Coordinator, Steve Barnes – Secretary, Tom Daniels – Maintenance, Chris Haller – Website and Lou Ann Kelleher – Treasurer. The December Meeting minutes were approved.
• Financial Report – The HOA 2018/2019 fiscal year began November 1. There was no Board Meeting in January, so for the report months of January and February, 66 dues payments were received bringing the total this year to 169. Of these payments, 30 were received online which is a new feature this year. Some of the payments were from homeowners who had not paid dues for several years so having this option may prove valu-able. Last year was a record year for dues payments received (228) and thus far, this year is ahead of last year’s pace.
• Architectural – There have been a large number of roof replacement requests which John has routinely approved provided the colors are comparable. A few complaints were addressed for a tarp that was left on the front of the house

for nearly 6 months (removed) and a junk vehicle in the street (moved). The condition of one home that has been an eyesore for some time is being considered.
• Maintenance – The Board is still considering the cost/benefit of installing an LED sign at the front entrance for better visibility than the small letter sign. Tom attended the Foothills Chaucer Park meeting. The report was very encouraging. Foothills (from the approved mill levy tax increase) has $300,000 budgeted for Chaucer Park. Only $80,000 of that was spent in 2018 for the new playground and general cleanup around the park. Foothills has indicated that most of the balance will be spent in 2019 and will include a new, larger shelter, additional benches, more trash cans and a complete rebuild of the 25-year old irrigation system for the park.
• Website – The Calendar of Events is all up to date. The new “Wine Club” description will be incorporated into the website and the new Board names/titles will be updated. The address for the HOA web site is (www.http://hoacanterbury.com).
• Real Estate/Welcoming – There was only one sale in the neigh-borhood in the last month – fountain home along Vista View and a blanket was delivered to the new owners.
• Old/New Business - The Board is planning on installing a sec-ond, shorter “Little Library” in Chaucer Park targeting the kids with kid’s books. The Board is also looking into providing a Shredding Service to coincide with Dumpster Day.
• Other – The newsletter is always looking for new, original, inter-esting content that might benefit the Homeowners so please let us know if you have something to share.

For more than 25 years, Thalia Peletis has been
bringing her four-legged family members, including
Bode, to Deer Creek Animal Hospital.Passionate and always pushing just where they can go for
their patients and pet owners, the Deer Creek Animal Hospital team isn’t satisfied until they’ve learned everything
they can to give each pet the best care possible.
“Without question, I know that my veterinarian and the entire care team will be there for me and my dog – from puppy-hood through to their senior days – as they help guide us
through their medical care. Most importantly, my veterinarian has never backed away from answering the question, ‘If this was your dog, what would you do?’ That partnership, that
compassion, is absolutely priceless to me.”

Lessons From a Successful Entrepreneur Mike Lindell is the inventor of MyPillow, a popular pillow brand, and CEO of a manufacturing company. He’s also a veteran entrepreneur, having run many successful businesses throughout his career. On the Small Business Trends website, he shares his tips for success: • Watch for deviations. Anything out of the ordinary can be a
sign—of problems or opportunities. Keep a close eye on what’s happening in your business so you can respond quickly.
• Learn from other people. Cultivate a wide network of col-leagues. Seek their advice—and listen to it. You can’t know everything, so outside counsel can help you keep up to speed.
• Get a lawyer. You have to have solid legal advice to avoid prob-lems. Consult with your attorney often, especially on employ-ment issues.
• Be willing to take chances. No entrepreneur succeeds by play-ing it safe 100 percent of the time. Assess your tolerance for risk and get comfortable taking (reasonable) chances.
• Listen to customers. Get feedback from the people you do busi-ness with, and use the information to strengthen your operations.
• Hire people with passion. You already have a passion for your brand. Hire employees who feel the same commitment to your industry and to helping customers.
• Communicate. Keep the lines of communication open with employees, customers, suppliers, and anyone else your business depends on.
• Treat people right. Employees want to feel valued. Customers do, too. Go out of your way to recognize good performance, and thank people for their support.
