Bios
This information was posted on our old blog:
Jen Dicou - President
I'm a Sales Executive and Customer Service Manager for Redstone Design in Bountiful. I have worked in the promotional products / brand marketing industry for 6 1/2 years. I also spent several years as a Client Training Coordinator for Franklin Covey. Some of the skills and training I have include Project Management, Time Management, above average computer skills, marketing, customer service and high level phone and email communication. My family consists of me, my husband, Shane, and my two children. We have lived in our home (Phase 2) for almost 2 years now, we are not the original owners. Before moving to Clinton, we lived in Bountiful for over 7 years. During that time, we were active in our community, served as the HOA Treasurer for 3 years and helped with many HOA projects while on and off the HOA board. I bring some of this experience to the board, knowing that our communities are not the same, but that we have similar goals in mind. I look forward to serving our community.
Ed Takacs - Secretary
I was born and raised in an Air Force Family (over 20 years). Plus I am retired from the Air Force (20 years). I have lived all over, (too long to list). I was a fighter aircraft mechanic (Crew Chief) in the Air Force. Now I work at Hill AFB as an aircraft fuels mechanic. I have been in many leadership and various positions thought out my military years. I am married to a beautiful woman and we have 7 children, (6-20 years of age). We bought this home from Ivory (Phase 3), and have enjoyed the neighborhood very much. We wish to help make this a great neighborhood for yours and our family.
Mike Scales - Treasurer
I am 39 yrs old and married to a wonderful woman and we have three children. I have been in the USAF for 18 ½ yrs and I am directly responsible for $3.2B worth of munitions assets being used in the Global War on Terror (Iraq/Afghanistan). I hold an AF degree in Munitions Systems and currently finishing a BS with Embry Riddle in Professional Aeronautics. The reason I raised my hand to accept this position was to help make our community a better place for ALL families that live here. We will all not have the same views at times but I am certain that we can all come to a consensus on how to move forward. I look forward to the tasks at hand and working with the rest of the HOA Team.

Letters from Froerer
A letter from Froerer Real Estate Group, our management company, has been sent to all owners. The HOA dues are listed. There are three payment options: annually $60 (which due to fiscal years became a semi-annual payment of $30), quarterly $17.50 or monthly $6. There is a $10 special assessment for the month of July, please include it with your payment. The special assessment will help with much needed start up funds, such as paying the annual water bill, insurance policy premiums, lawn care and management fees. We encourage you, if possible, to pay annually as it is more cost effective.
Payments in the form of a check or money order should be made out to Froerer Real Estate Group and sent to:
A management company is required by the CC&Rs. We chose Froerer due to their low cost and ability to facilitate a smooth running HOA. As part of their fees for management, we are charged $1 per letter to the owners. We are going to try to keep letters to a minimum hoping to keep your HOA fees at the current amount. We will post info here on the blog and only send letters as necessary. If you would like to receive an email when important info is posted, please send us an email with your name, email address and your home address. We will not send blast messages of comments, only the info posted to our blog that is pertinent from your HOA.
We will consider going through the steps required to become self-managed at a later date.
Please email questions to lexingtonhoaboard@gmail.com
NOTE ON ASSESSMENT: We were just informed that Froerer was not able to bill for the full annual assessment due to their financial year ending Dec 31. Therefore, the annual assessment is $60, but you will be given a semi-annual option of $30 for July - Dec. In January, the full $60 for the annual payment will be due.
NOTE ON MAILING ADDRESS: Froerer mistakenly put their address on the coupons, but the payments can be send to our PO Box or if you happen to send it to Froerer, they will accept it without problem and credit your account.
