NOVEMBER NEWS FROM VANTAGE POINTE
Please note, this version of the newsletter is
the generic version and contains no pictures or animations.
BOARDWALK
BOARD MEETING REMINDER
Per our VP bylaws, any new business to
be brought up at the Home Owners Board Meetings must first be considered and
approved at the Board's workshop meeting prior to the HOA meeting --- This
is standard practice in all communities --- One of the advantages of this is
it will keep meetings from dragging on as there will be enough time consumed
at the meetings discussing the business at hand, such as the Clubhouse
expansion.

For everything Thy goodness sends.
