After many hours of research and interviews the board has decided to move forward with bringing Travis Oaks into the future. The board has contracted with RealManage www.realmanage.com to provide property management services effective January 1, 2009. The board is very excited about this change as we believe the level of service and professionalism will be greatly enhanced. All aspects of communication, financial management and on site activities will position Travis Oaks for the future. This transition will be difficult and we ask all owners to be patient with this process.
In addition the board has voted to increase the operating and reserve budget contributions 15% over the current level for 2009. Becasue of this increase many deferred maintenance projects will be completed in 2009 along with improvements to the work order request and fullfilment system, customer service and operating procedures. Expect a mailing to include your 2009 payment coupons in the mail very soon.
Beginning November 28, 2008, and ending February 28, 2009, the City of Austin
will be conducting it’s annual Waste Water Averaging and Audit.
This survey will determine our monthly Waste Water charges.
The HOA Board of Directors is asking all residents to be EXTREMELY mindful of
their water use and do everything possible to conserve water at all times, but
particularly during this three month period.
With thoughtful cooperation, we can all do our part to save money and a
precious resource.
As of August 18, 2008, the HOA has completed the installation of new 30 year roof shingles on the following buildings: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 21, 31, 32, 33, 34 and 40, almost 1/3 of the buildings. You will notice these new shingles are of a dimensional design, thicker, to out perform standard shingles and add an architectural feature to the buildings to enhance curb appeal and subsequently value.
The board of directors is working to continue the roof installations as specail assessment funds are collected and made available. As of today 26 of 146 (17%) unit owners have not paid their special assessment creating an obstacle in continuing the much needed roof replacements.
If you have not paid please coordinate arrangements to get this assessment paid as the other property owners have done. The board is taking aggressive steps, as provided by the HOA declarations and by-laws, to enforce this assessment and collect the funds needed to continue roof replacements.
Travis Oaks gate code will be changing on July 1, 2008. After July 1, all other access codes will be invalid.
Contact Pioneer to be added to the Remote Gate Code Access System which will allow guests to contact you via a cell/home phone for access onto the property. Please provide Pioneer via a work order your contact info (name, unit # contact # etc) which will add you to the new RGCA system.
Gate clickers can be purchased from Pioneer for $25.
