What an extraordinary sight! Marc Morgan captured this morning rainbow arching over the Shores community center. Perfect timing -- on the day before our community vote on community covenants revisions. Somehow, this rainbow restores within me -- if only for a precious few minutes -- the hope and promise of community peace. Covenants revision has been a divisive issue in the Shores for months. Here's hoping that tomorrow's vote will bring some resolution.There are many viewpoints being [...]

The WSPOA attorney has taken the suggestions of the Woodland Shores Covenants Committee and put them into legal verbage for our review and discussion. The proposed revisions were revealed at the WSPOA board meeting yesterday and a great discussion ensued.WSPOA President Mike Bevens read each revised paragraph aloud, and asked for input from all property owners in attendance.

Members of the committee and the WSPOA board met with an attorney to discuss the covenant [...]
February WSPOA meeting cancelled. Due to winter storm, the February meeting of the WSPOA Board of Directors scheduled for Saturday, February 5th has been cancelled. The next regularly scheduled meeting will take place at 9am on March 5th. This winter weather cancellation made me wonder if there would be any interest in making remote meeting attendance (via the internet) possible in some form or fashion. The only two methods I'm familiar with are Zoom meetings and [...]
