Covenants Amendment: Your Signature Needed

After a year long process including research, neighborhood information sessions and input survey, and a legal review, it is finally time to sign the Amendment to the Covenants!  

Our key goals of the Covenants Amendment, as originally proposed at our January 2020 Annual Meeting, are:

  • Adjust the dues cap to keep the neighborhood financially stable ($150 indexed cap based on survey majority)
  • Promote transparency by requiring budget information be shared prior to the annual meeting
  • Modernize to clearly allow for digital communication
  • Unite all 8 additions of Walnut Grove with one clear, consistent update
