Hello Lilac Park Homeowners. The pool is almost full of water. We need to start the pumps and make sure everything is in working order. If all goes well, we will open next weekend. There will be ice cream and drinks for sale this year.

Plan on stopping by and saying hi. Pool hours will be 11-5 for the next 2 weekends ( Saturday and Sunday) and Monday- Memorial Day. (Hours subject to change). We will open daily starting on Saturday, June 5th from 11AM to 5PM.

Please Note: You must be current on your dues in order to use the pool. If you have questions, please email: kathy.powell@arnoldlilacparkhoa.org.

WELCOME TO LILAC PARK!!!

Hi All,

I am Kathy Powell, the new HOA president. I was reviewing the email database we use to contact our homeowners and was very surprised that we were missing about 30 email addresses. I have entered them all in and I am sending this as kind of a test email.

I will be finishing up the Pro-forma budget for 2021 and sending information on how to obtain your own copy.

Again, Welcome to all new/updated subscribers.

Enjoy your winter and holidays.

FRIENDLY REMINDER OF POOL RULES FOR 2020 SEASON

PoolLetterToHomeowners

We have had several homeowners asking to bring in guests. Due to the increasing spread of COVID-19 we are only allowing family members this season.

We have also been asked about renting the pool after hours. Due to the extra cleaning required by the CDC to keep the pool open, we are not renting out the pool after hours this season.

Please refer to the homeowners’ letter above to refresh all that the health department has required us to do this year in order to keep the pool open.

Thank you for your understanding. If you have additional questions please contact the Board of Directors at info@arnoldlilacparkhoa.org

Log Rounds Available

During the recent lot cleanup, some feld trees were cut into into rounds of approximately 1 -2 foot lengths. These are available to any homeowner, first come, first served. Most but not all are soft wood. The trees were cut down more than a year ago so the wood is somewhat dried. The rounds are on the hillside East of the pool and in the park area South of the pool. Photos are attached.

A Reminder About Lilac Park Policies

As the summer wears on, there is an marked increase in the number of people here in Lilac Park. The increase includes seasonal and vacation homeowners, their visitors, and renters. It is important that everyone be aware of and follow the rules associated with our community. These can be found in the public documents section of the web site. A link is supplied below. The HOA has gotten a few complaints in two particular areas, which are covered in CC&Rs. The topics in question cover quiet time and lighting. Homeowners are encouraged to review the CC&Rs from time to time and make sure that they and others using the property are aware of the rules. While Lilac Park is an excellent vacation spot, it is also a residential community with people who live here full-time. Adhering to the published rules helps maintain the quality of life for both full-time residents and vacationers. Your cooperation will be  greatly appreciated.

From Article V Section 5

(b) No owner shall permit disturbances which unreasonably disturb other owners’ quiet enjoyment of their lot. Quiet shall be observed between the hours of 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM.

(c) There shall be no exterior lighting installed or operated which is directed at or shining on neighboring lots.

A Friendly Reminder

The HOA extended the period during which dues may be paid without penalty. Homeowners who have not paid their annual dues have until July 31 to pay after which there is 10% penalty, and interest is accrued monthly. If you would like to arrange a payment plan, please contact the HOA by phone at 209-795-3807 or by email to info@arnoldlilacparkhoa.org.

3 Items of Interest: Pool, Lot Clearing, Late Fees

  1. Pool-
    We are getting the pool ready for the season. We do not know when we will be able to open, but the plan is to be able to open as soon as we get the okay from Calaveras County and the State of California.
  2. Lot Clearing –
    We contacted the Sheriff’s Department and were informed that lot clearing, checking on the state of your property, etc. by non-resident homeowners are activities NOT considered to be in violation of the Sheriff’s request to shelter-in-place at your primary residence. This seemed obvious but thought it best to contact the Sheriff before making a statement.
  3. Late Fees –
    Late fees for 2020 dues will be waived provided payments are received prior to Aug 1, 2020.

County Maintenance Requests

The board has been making requests for county maintenance using the on-line system for about a year. A username was created indicating the request is from the HOA. The County response has been very good, though it not clear if the fact that it comes from the HOA makes any difference. Last year we requested all the drainage ditches in Lilac Park be cleared and within a week, the County crew began work. On HOA request, the County also cleared the overgrown vegetation on the island where Vista intersects with Ponderosa. Most of the requests have been for potholes and roadside vegetation, and these are often completed within a couple of weeks. Having the HOA submit requests for things like potholes eliminates duplicate requests and allows for the possibility of expanding the request to include other issues the the same area. If you have a request, send an email to the info@arnoldlilacparkHOA.org with the subject “County Maintenance Request”. If it seems like the HOA should make the request, we will submit it to the County. If it seems best that the request come from the homeowner personally, they will be informed by email. Homeowners are, of course always free to make requests themselves. If so, we recommend using the on-line system as it seems to have a better response record than phone calls.

Annual HOA Lot cleanup

This Saturday, April 25 there will be an effort to clean-up the approximately 2 acre HOA owned parcels that surround the pool. If you are a full-time resident or currently living in Lilac Park, your help will be appreciated. Work will start about 8AM. Bring along whatever tools you might have, e.g., rakes, lopers, etc. Please wear a facemask. Work gloves are a good idea as this is messy work. We plan to try our best to maintain social distancing guidelines. Note that we will be burning wood and pine needles on the site so if you have issues with smoke, please take this into account. This is NOT a call for people who are currently residing outside Lilac Park to come up to help. Looking forward to seeing whoever is motivated to show up at the pool.

Lot Clearing Information

Lot clearing season is upon us. The HOA has NOT received information that lot clearing requirements will be reduced or delayed this year.

The other attachment contains a list of lot clearers recently trained by Ebbets Pass Fire District (EPFD). Please note that now we are in “Open Burning” status.

Updated to include photo of the cleared drainage ditch on Lilac Drive just above the entrance to the pool.

As you may know, the HOA submitted a request to the county to clear the drainage ditches in Lilac Park. The county has changed the status to “In Progress”.

Requests for County Maintenance

Calaveras County has implemented a way to submit service requests online rather than by telephone. Your HOA has created an account on the county site to make such requests. We have submitted 4 requests, 2 of which have been completed and 2 more that are under review. If you see something that you think the county should take care of send an email to the board with the subject “County Service Request”. Include a photo if you think it will help. We will review the request and if appropriate submit it to the county from the HOA account. Michael Levay will be handling this function. He will reply to your email with a link so you can view the request or with a reason why he did not submit your request. Turn around time on request should be a week or less. The board email is “info@arnoldlilacparkhoa.org”.
