WAYS WE COMMUNICATE
 
 
 
Email Blasts:  Sent to all homeowners whenever appropriate.  It is critical that all homeowners provide their email address(es) because most community news and information is disseminated via email. 
 
Flyers:  Flyers about upcoming events and important information are frequently sent to homeowners by email.  The flyers are sometimes also posted on the Clubhouse bulletin board.
 
Board Meetings – Monthly:  Our HOA Board of Directors conducts monthly meetings to which homeowners are invited.  The meeting schedule is posted on the website calendar, and meeting agendas are emailed to all homeowners in advance.  The monthly meeting minutes are approved by the Board during the following meeting, and posted on the website. 
 
Annual Meetings:  Each June, we conduct our annual meeting.  Committee Chairpersons report on the status of their committee projects and issues, and homeowners discuss items of common interest.  Prior to the meeting, all homeowners who are interested in running for the Board are asked to prepare a profile describing their experience, concerns, and expectations for the future of The Salt Pond.  These profiles are posted on the website.  Prior to the annual meetings, homeowners may cast ballots for new Board members.  During the annual meeting, new Board members are announced.   The annual meeting minutes are posted on the website.
 
Letters, Emails, Phone Calls, and Meetings:  Our Community Manager, Board members, and Committee members may communicate with individual homeowners via letters, emails, phone calls, and meetings, as appropriate.
 
Annual Assessments:  Invoices for Annual Assessments are sent to homeowners via postal mail or email.  The invoices are provided in December with payment due by January 31.
 
Contact Our Property Manager:  Homeowners may speak directly with our Property Manager during office hours by visiting the office, calling, or emailing.  Most calls, emails, and inquiries via the website are responded to within 48 hours.

Social Media – Facebook & NextDoor:  Residents have asked for a way Salt Pond homeowners can communicate among ourselves.  We have options – Facebook & the NextDoor app.  Both are private groups created for Salt Pond homeowners ONLY.  Click here for more information. Social Media & The Salt Pond   The SPHA website has also added a Homeowners Channel and a Message Board.  Please consult the Home Page for more information.
 
Homeowner Directory:  Homeowners have the ability to add their contact information to our Resident directory on www.sphamembers.org.  Why?  Your neighbors need a way to reach you in an emergency, or maybe they’d like to invite you over for a cookout.  Full-time residents often spot something about our part-time neighbors’ homes (such as forgotten packages, broken windows, fallen trees, or other damage) and would like a way to contact you about it.  Please also include your contact info and uncheck the Hide boxes to allow your information to be shared.  Note: The only people who can see your contact info are fellow Salt Pond homeowners.
