Please be vigilant.  There have been reports of thefts out of garages, vehicles ransacked and trespassing within Fairfield.  For your safety, and those around you, please ensure that you are locking your vehicles, closing your garage doors and utilizing your alarm systems.  This is always of great importance, but especially now during Hurricane recovery and as we approach the Holiday season.

The theft was reported to the police.  Security camera systems have been confirmed to have recorded some of the above referenced acts.  Management has also called in to non-emergency and requested additional attention/police drive-through for Fairfield due to the above.

• PLEASE BE ALERT AND AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS.

• PLEASE SET YOUR ALARM SYSTEMS.

Thanks to the residents that have notifed the Board about these events in effort to advise to our residents and hopefully deter these unwanted activities.  Please feel free to contact the HOA Management Comapny, Mitchell M. Koop, CPA PC at 409-860-HOME (4663) or via email at ashley@koopcpa.com with any comments or questions.

Fairfield HOA Owners:

2017 is off to a quick start and the Fairfield Board of Directors (Board) hopes you and your loved ones are enjoying the mild winter months.

The Board hopes that everyone appreciated having the entrance decorated with lights over the holiday season. Expect the lights to return next year!  The entrance area flowerbed end caps are to be freshened up with seasonal flowers in the coming weeks, just in time for spring.

The included 2017 HOA Budget was approved by the Board in January.  2017 income will be generate by Homeowner Dues expected from 110 homes, of which 108 are currently on the rolls. Insurance expense increased in 2016 and remained at 2016 levels for 2017.  The premium is based on the number of homes and increases as the neighborhood expands.  The Yard Maintenance budget covers maintenance of the entrance median, as previously mentioned, and routine lawn care.

Please use this as a reminder that annual HOA dues were due on February 28, 2017.  Your timely payment allows dues to remain at current levels while maintaining the entrance area.  Our HOA Management Company will be following up with homeowners that have unpaid balances soon.

A list of the most commonly overlooked, violated HOA Restrictions is also included with this letter.  Routine lawn maintenance is a requirement of our Association.  Trash cans are to be out of sight, except for trash day, and the evening prior.  We ask that you keep this sheet for future reference.

The Board meets quarterly to review HOA finances and to discuss issues impacting the HOA and its members.  The next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, April 4th.  the meeting is open to all owners interested in attending.  Please reach out to our HOA Management Company for additional details.  Future meeting dates will be communicated on the HOA website.  The Board encourages and welcomes owner participation.

Any comments or concerns regarding these matters, or others, can be directed to our HOA Management Company, Mitchell M. Koop, CPA PC.  They are here to serve each of us and the Fairfield Homeowners Association.

Kindest Regards,

Fairfield Board of Directors

It is requested that all Property Owners review the Bylaws Draft and provide any comments you may have back to our Fairfield HOA Management Company by contacting Management via email provided above.  Your comments are requested back no later than July 31, 2016.  Although the Bylaws Draft is lengthy, it reflects a comprehensive set of administrative guidelines that the FFHOA did not previously have, in essence, every provision is new to our subdivision.  These Bylaws will help the Board of Directors serve you better and your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Your comments will be reviewed by the Fairfield HOA Board, our Fairfield HOA Management Company and our Fairfield HOA Legal Counsel.

The final version of the Bylaws, with any changes, will be placed back on the FFHOA website for final review on approximately July 15, 2016 (www.fairfieldsubdivision.com).
