“Listen to the people who are talking about how to fix what’s wrong, not the ones who just work people into a snit over the problems.
Listen to the people who have ideas about how to fix things, not the ones who just blame others.”
– Molly Ivans (1944-2007)
Your HFPOA board thanks our neighbors who attended the special meeting. Based on your input and your Board’s commitment to our neighborhood:
- One warning will be given for compliance violations prior to fines being issued; no warnings will be given for any pool-related or architectural violations.
- Effective date for new noncompliance fine schedule is moved to December 1, 2023, to ensure everyone is properly notified. We will still be mailing this to every resident regarding the new fine schedule as planned.
- Sections of the Bill of Assurance will be posted on the POA website and Facebook page with simple explanations of that section so it is transparent and easy to understand for everyone.
- The Bill of Assurance requires updating for legal purposes (removing the developer and his voting capability). The board intends to make the Bill of Assurance easier to understand including POA compliance violations. Parking of trailers/boats/RV’s, basketball goals, street parking, and trash cans will be addressed. Your input of these matters would be appreciated.
On a less positive note: There are several neighbors who are trying to remove the POA board (and potentially the POA) because of enforcing the Bill of Assurance. Over 100 warnings/notifications were delivered to neighbors this year. 11 neighbors received fines. Your POA board is determined to keep the Heritage Farm neighborhood as a desired place to live in Benton. Support your proactive POA board. It has positive ideas, is protecting your property values, and has your and our best interest in mind.
We are here for you, we will give you accurate information, and we want your input in our neighborhood. If you have any questions or concerns about your Board or it’s actions, email us at:
