CHPOA Committees

This committee is responsible for helping to develop the budget for the Association, arranging for an annual review of Association financial records, and recommending financial policies and procedures to the CHPOA Board. Current members: George Higgins (chair), Diane Darlington and Al Soulier (treasurer). Also Carla Keck (not pictured).

The Communications Committee helps oversee and provide guidance to the Board regarding the Cornwallis Hills newsletter and website.

Covenants Revision Committee

The members of the Covenants Review Committee worked long and hard on helping to draft a new and updated revision of the Cornwallis Hills Covenants. The Board approved of the changes recommended by the committee in May 2008 and now the group is charged with asking all property owners to read the proposed Covenants and sign the revised version. This is a challenging task but the committee is up to it! Members include (left to right): Sandy Silverman,
Al Soulier, Derek Hales, Diane Darlington, Jo Soulier, and Kamela Godfrey.

Community Watch

An active Community Watch program is vital to a crime-free and secure neighborhood.   Here in Cornwallis Hills we have a very active program with different levels of involvement.  The first point of contact for many is with our Block Captains.  As big as Cornwallis Hills is, we tend to know one another based on our "area", or block.  Block captains help by being a point of contact, knowing the residents along that part of the street and helping to share information as needed. Our Community Watch Chair is Gayane Chambless. A list of current Block Captains and their contact information can be found in the Neighborhood Directory.

• Property Assessments ($141.00) are due by January 1st
• Payments made February 1st or later are considered late and will incur interest charges and possible oher penalties.

Proposed New Covenants

The Cornwallis Hills Property Owners' Association was established back in the 80's. Since then, times have changed, and your Board realized that we needed to bring the Covenants into the 21st century. After many, many months of careful deliberation and numerous rewrites, your neighbors on the Covenants Committee, with input from your Board, has crafted a document appropriate for our association.

We need notarized signatures from 75% of the owners in the neighborhood to be able to enact these new Covenants.

Please read them. You will be getting notices about when and where you can sign the proposed changes. In reponse to a number of requests, we have posted a before-and-after document, which shows the changes (additions and deletions) to the original document.
