Board Of Directors Updates:

BOARD VACANCY VOTE DELAYED

The Board of Directors has canceled a special session next Tuesday at which it had planned to fill a board vacancy. The delay is to allow more time for the board to consider filing the vacancy created by the resignation of Director Mark Christensen. The public will be notified when a new date is scheduled for the vote.

The deadline to apply for the vacant position is today. Those interested should email board President Glen Harris at glenharris@bent-tree.com.

Public Safety Updates:

Holiday Guest Entry – Please Read

Public Safety is committed to ensuring the security of our community by properly clearing guests. Holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas bring an influx of guests to the gate, potentially resulting in major backups affecting both entrance lanes. Public Safety needs residents’ help to prevent these backups from occurring. It is very important that residents planning on having holiday guests read the information contained in the following link to preserve efficient gate operations and prevent extended delays.
