Happy Summer!  I hope you are enjoying the longer days and the bluer skies.  Below are a few items of note for the week ahead. 

  • Today is the last day to sign up for the July 4th BBQ.  Please plan on joining between 4:00-7:00pm on Tuesday afternoon.
    • As this is a Federal Holiday, no work will be permitted in the building.
  • For those of you on the India side, one of the elevators is out of order.  We are working to get it back up and running as quickly as possible.  We fully grasp the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we work to address this issue.

Please take note of the following dates:

  • July 11th, 6:00pm: The next Board Meeting will be held in the Community Room, with an option to participate via Zoom.
  • July 18th, 10:00am: Scheduled HOA Maintenance walk.  If you  are interested in joining please inform me.

Community Update; June 23, 2023

Dear Watermark Community,

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the warm welcome I have received as the new General Manager. Your kind words have been greatly appreciated, and I am genuinely excited about the opportunity to work alongside each and every one of you.

In these weekly Community updates, I aim to provide you with valuable insights and information pertaining to our esteemed Watermark Community. I strongly encourage you to reach out to me with any questions or concerns you may have. If you are currently leasing out your unit, kindly ensure that all relevant information is effectively communicated to your occupant, or alternatively, provide us with their email address so that we can ensure they receive important HOA-related communications.

Without further ado, let me share some noteworthy updates & reminders with you:

  • Underlayment work in the Community Room is scheduled to commence on Monday, June 26th. This anticipated two to three-day project will temporarily render the Community Room unavailable.
  • Mark your calendars for the eagerly awaited July 4th BBQ celebration, set to take place from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 4th. To ensure ample food for all attendees, please sign up by the June 30th deadline. This event is complimentary for residents and costs $10.00 for your guests. The organizing committee kindly requests the assistance of a willing volunteer to handle the grilling duties. Rest assured, there will also be delectable vegetarian options available.
  • The 2022 Financial Review has been mailed and is also accessible on the resident portal.
  • Please take a moment to address any excess storage at your parking space(s) within the garage. Items may not be stored on the ground and will need to be moved ASAP.  If you would like an assessment of your parking area to ensure compliance with the requirements, feel free to reach out to me.
  • In the interest of maintaining a pleasant environment, I urge everyone to properly bag and tie off their garbage before disposing of it down the chute. This small action can significantly reduce unpleasant odors and minimize costs associated with unscheduled cleaning of the chutes.

Please take note of the following upcoming dates:

  • July 4th: As a Federal holiday, no work will be permitted. Please notify your contractor.
  • July 11th, 6:00 p.m.: The next Board Meeting will be held in the Community Room, with an option to participate via Zoom.
  • July 18th, 10:00 a.m.: Scheduled HOA Maintenance walk. If you are interested in joining, please inform me.

Thank you for your attention to these important matters. Let us continue to work together in building an outstanding Watermark Community.

Best regards,

Shannon Zgrzemski, CMCA

General Manager
