TO ALL HOMEOWNERS/LOT OWNERS:
1. We recently issued new keys for use at the pool, boat launch, tennis court and restroom at the barn. These keys are for your use only. Anyone caught leaving the boat launch unlocked or leaving a key in the bushes so someone else can launch his or her boat will be asked to turn in his or her key. This will not be tolerated. This is not a public boat launch, but for Deerhaven Property Owners only.
THE RULES FOR ALL FACILITIES AT THE PARK ARE POSTED ON THE BULLETIN BOARD AT THE BARN AND POOL RULES ARE ALSO POSTED AT THE POOL. PLEASE ABIDE BY THEM; THEY ARE THERE FOR A REASON.
Any homeowner or lot owner who has not received their new key can obtain one by calling our new Secretary Pauline Tarver at 596-1641.
2. It has been brought to our attention that there has been a lot of mischievous activity in our neighborhood. Over the 4th of July fireworks were set off and thrown on a homeowner’s deck, others were fired and the fallout landed on two other homeowner’s roofs. Fireworks have also been set off since the 4th from along Lakeview Drive.
3. FIREWORKS OF ANY KIND ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED IN DEERHAVEN, IN ACCORDANCE WITH RESTRICTION #20. IDENTIFICATION OF THE VIOLATORS WILL BE GIVEN TO THE AUTHORITIES IF THE VIOLATIONS CONTINUE.
4. Golf carts are cutting through on private property at the lower end of Fawn Ridge and Lakeview Drive from Blue Lake at high speeds. IF THIS CONTINUES AND THE VIOLATORS ARE IDENTIFIED, THEY WILL ALSO BE TURNED OVER TO THE AUTHORITIES.
It has also been noted that young people are being allowed to drive golf carts on our roads unsupervised and late at night. They race side by side down the road and this is an accident waiting to happen since we have several areas that are “blind” and drivers would never be able to see them before they were hit. Remember the homeowner/lot owner is not only responsible for his or her actions but their guests as well.
5. It has also been noted that the fencing between Lago Escondido and Deerhaven has been taken down and gravel from our road pile has been used to gain access between both areas. The fence has been reattached, however this is another type of vandalism. This Sunday evening, the 18th, it was noted that two pickups jumped the reinstalled barrier. Our thanks to Bob Duffin for arranging with PEC to install another streetlight on Granite Ridge and for his work party for reattaching the downed fence again and putting additional rocks on either side.
6. New phone directories were delivered or given to all homeowners however if you did not receive yours, please contact Secretary Pauline Tarver.

The Annual Meeting:
The Annual Board of Director’s meeting was held the morning of June 19th and was followed by the General Meeting in the afternoon with a catered dinner that followed.
The turnout for the General Meeting was very small, only approximately 19% of our property owners attended. Chairman Becraft introduced the new Directors who were voted into office for another term. Chairman Becraft also introduced JoAnn Rosch as the new Director who has agreed to serve due to the resignation of Director Knott. Chairman Becraft also introduced the new Officers as listed above. The Chairman of the Board, Renea Latham, was nominated and approved by the Board at the July 17th meeting.
The committee in charge of the dinner did a wonderful job and saw to it that the Clubhouse was also decorated. Rita Preston & Sandi Becraft were in charge of the committee that put it all together. Our thanks to all who participated.
The Board of Directors unanimously approved an amended revision of Restriction #17 WEEDS. A copy of this amendment, minutes, etc. can be obtained on the Deerhaven Website, www.deerhavenpoa.com.
This is my final Newsletter to all of you. With your help we can keep our neighborhood “people friendly” again so everyone can enjoy it.
