FROM THE HOA PRESIDENT DECEMBER 2025
Submitted by Bill Seiler, HOA President
1. ANNUAL MEETING: Clubhouse at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday December 3, 2025. Members, please enter through front door to check in, beginning at 6:00 p.m. Election of two board members. Nomination forms have been received from Macy Torrey and Al Voelker as of November 29.Deadline for nomination forms, which then lists name on ballot, is Monday, December 1, at 5:00 p.m. The Bylaws allow nominations from the floor.
Agenda for meeting in November mailing. If you are unable to attend, please provide your proxy to a member planning to attend to help meet the quorum requirement of 40 members attending and by proxy.
2. 2026 BUDGET/DUES: At November Board Meeting, the HOA Board approved the 2026 Budget as outlined in the mailing. To fund the budget, dues were set at $400/month beginning January 1, 2026.
Since this is an increase in dues, you need to change the amount to the $400 with your financial institution or with the Centennial payment portal since it will not automatically change without your direction.
For those using the Centennial payment portal and needing assistance, you can contact Brandi at Centennial: [email protected] or [email protected] or 913-648-1500. For those mailing payments, please allow sufficient mailing time.
3. PAYMENT/LATE FEE UPDATED POLICY: The HOA Board also approved an updated Payment Policy. This replaces the prior policy and is effective January 1, 2026. The HOA Board also authorized entering an arrangement with the debt collection provider for past due accounts specifically approved by the Board for referral to the provider.
4. SPECIAL COMMITTEE TO REVIEW DECLARATION OF COVENANTS, RESTRICTIONS, ASSESSMENTS AN EASEMENTS (DCR’S): The HOA Board authorized a special committee to review the DCR’s and any accompanying policies. Brent Fogle, who is leaving the Board, has agreed to chair that committee. Its focus will be on the insurance provision as it relates to the present “as built” or “originally conveyed” requirement. As property insurance goes up and the units in the community get older, many communities are going to “bare walls” coverage. Our insurance agent has suggested considering this option.
Members interested in being a member of the committee should contact Brent, [email protected] or 913-669-9427 before January 1, 2026. It is anticipated that meetings of the committee will begin in January; materials will be provided.
5. GUTTER CLEANING. Depending on the rate of leaf loss (cold and wind helping this year), gutter cleaning will be performed in December.
As we move toward another new year, my best for the holiday season.
