*** Annual Neighborhood Meeting ***
The Oxford Place annual meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 21 at Doby’s Bridge Presbyterian Church at 7:25pm. Only 35% to 40% of the property owners have been represented at the the past three neighborhood meetings. The 2006 meeting is very important and could be a turning point for the neighborhood. We need at least 50% of the property owners to attend.
Doby’s Bridge Presbyterian Church is located 1 mile northwest of Oxford Place on Doby’s Bridge Road. We will open the doors at 7:00pm to allow time for property owners to meet their neighbors before the meeting.
Meeting Agenda
We need your input on several proposals. Residents recommended most of these proposals below. However, the board did add one or two extras to generate excitement and to further encourage all residents to attend the meeting.
Neighborhood Fee - Set the neighborhood fee to $260 per year or another agreed upon amount ($225 to $400).
Early Bird Savings - Residents who pay by a specified date would receive a $20 to $40 discount for paying early.
Entrance Lights - The lights have improved, but still need work. A proposal has been made to alter, redesign, or replace.
Entrance Landscaping - Various proposals (maintenance, flowers, protecting from trucks, etc.).
Tennis Court - Proposal to add a Tennis Court to the recreation lot.
Overgrown Lots - Proposal to revise C&Rs to require lot maintenance (67% of properties to amend C&Rs).
Gravel Driveways - Proposal to change C&Rs to allow residents to have gravel driveways. (same as above).
Bylaws Set Fines - Further redefine fines for C&R violations by type and duration. (50% of properties to amend Bylaws.)

OxfordPlace@Gmail.com if you have any other topics you wish to discuss at the meeting. Also email us if you need a copy of the C&Rs or Bylaws. To save money, we will not be providing copies at the meeting unless specifically requested.Homeowners Board Elections
We want to thank Clif Armstrong and Frank Reitz for their service to the community over the past two years. Unfortunately, due to extensive travel and out of town assignments, neither will be able to assist the board in 2006. Angie Bivens, Frank Collins, Bob Katz, and Libby Pretty have expressed a willingness to either serve on the Homeowners Board, assist the newly elected Homeowners Board, or take a well needed break. We are hoping that several new residents will step forward to serve on the Homeowners Board in 2006.
