Wow, it's amazing to know that as a board member, I have never been known to answer any questions put up on this web. And as a board member I am part of some deep dark conspiracy against the rest of the neighborhood. I'm amazed that some people think we actually have nothing better to do with our lives than to think up ways to spend your money. It's my money too. The deep dark conspiracy is very conspicuous with the addition of the junior olympic pool, wonderful pool maintenance and attendants, well kept landscaping, tennis courts that are constantly being maintained, a swim team, and an ever expanding playground. All must be being handled by some entity other than the board. As for the newsletter, no one made a peep about it or its content for years. The board takes time to focus on the newsletter to see if it can improved on and boy you would have thought we were destroying a classic. Many different people, not just board members, are working on this newsletter and from many different angles. Give them time and hopefully the changes will be worth it. All I read are complaints about what has been changed but no REAL suggestions or contributions as to what might go in. Other than the minutes. What about all the postings that the minutes were boring and wasting space. Now they're pricelss. When the printer ran out of the normal paper and we had a substitution, at no cost to Willoughby, it was once again the board's fault for wasting money. When Cathy explained the situation, there were no ''gee- I didn't realize'' or ''sorry for jumping to conclusions''. I understand people want instant satisfaction, but the newsletter only comes out once a month so you'll see change rather slowly. Remember, these volunteers working on it in their spare time are busy homeowners just like you, not paid professionals.
