Homeowner Updates
We are still seeking out quotes from various Insurance Companies to hopefully lower our insurance premiums, while carrying the same, if not better coverage’s.
We are also seeking quotes from new lawn care companies in the area. We are looking for more affordable lawn care. Additionally we are seeking snow removal services that have bobcats or the ability to move snow to our drainage ditch. Not just to the sides and piling it up in our already limited parking area.
Your Board of Director’s have a centralized e-mail set up in place. You may communicate with all of the Board Members at the following e-mail address: meadowcreekassoc@yahoo.com
If you prefer hard copy of minutes and updates as we understand not all have Internet access, please notify your Board Secretary.
The best time to reach a member of the board is Monday-Saturday between the hours of 10:00am and 8:00pm. On Sundays, between 11:00am and 8:00pm. If you experience an emergency that requires the Boards immediate attention after hours, please call down the call list until you reach someone

The financial report was handled out on June 18th. If anyone would like this please contact Barb Rogen between 7am-9pm. Thanks. The board is trying to not raise dues and is asking for owners help is keeping up with the grounds. Ginger and Robin have both sprayed round up around building 1960.
