Annual Meeting Dec. 2, 2025

Country Place HOA — Sat, 01 Nov 2025 15:13:00 +0000

The annual meeting of Country Place HOA members will be held on Tuesday, December 2, 2025 at 7:00 PM at the Eastern District Police Station, 204 Pasadena Road. Please watch your mailbox for the official notice and proxy form. Country Place Homeowners should make every effort to attend. If you are unable to attend, please complete the proxy form and give the completed proxy to either a neighbor who will attend or to a board member prior to the meeting date and time.

As a non-profit organization, by law, we must have a quorum to hold the meeting and vote on issues. The CPHOA Board of Director positions of President and Treasurer expire in 2025 and are up for election. All Country Place Homeowners are invited to serve on the Board of Directors. Please consider taking a chair, especially if yourself or your household have never held a board seat. If you’re interested in either position, be sure to attend or let someone know that you are willing to volunteer.

Board positions require very little time each month. Board members get a full discount on their annual dues during the years they volunteer.

$50 Discount on HOA Dues

Country Place dues for 2026 will remain at $200.00. Country Place Homeowners who attend the annual meeting WILL RECEIVE A $50 DISCOUNT on their 2026 dues (as long as a quorum is reached). You must attend the annual meeting in-person to obtain the discount. Limit of one discount per property address.

Vice President: Ann Marie Wargo, 7951 Shady Grove Way
Treasurer: Lauryn Willey, 7933 Wooded Glen CT

Trash Cans and Recycling Bins

Country Place HOA — Mon, 02 Aug 2021 19:24:19 +0000

Please remove all Trash Cans and Recycling Bins from view the day they are emptied, either by placing behind a fence or inside your garage. Trash cans and recycling containers left in public view (ie, street, driveway, front porch, or in your front yard) detract from the appearance of our community. Article VII, Section 8 of our Covenants requires that all trash cans, storage containers, equipment, etc. MUST be obscured from view of adjacent lots and streets. Please help the community to look its best by storing your containers behind a fence or in your garage. Thank you!

Private Plantings Overgrowing Sidewalks

Country Place HOA — Fri, 02 Aug 2019 19:25:44 +0000

Some of the public sidewalks in our community have become obstructed by homeowner plantings that are well overgrown. If you have plantings adjacent to a sidewalk, the board asks that you trim them as needed to keep sidewalks clear for pedestrians.

Architectural Review Committee

Country Place HOA — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 13:00:00 +0000

All exterior architectural changes to your Country Place home and property must be submitted for approval 30 days in advance of your project start date.

According to Country Place HOA Covenants and By-Laws which each owner signed and agreed to when you purchased your home, all owners in Country Place are bound by law to submit all proposed changes to their homes and properties to the Architectural Review Committee, and must receive approval from the committee before changes are made. For select minor improvements, there is a “Pre-approved list” posted on our web site.

Note: Since our community P.O. box is only checked monthly, for faster response, please submit your plans directly to an Architectural Review committee member 30 days before you would like to begin your project by using the Contact Form.
