Annual RPOA meeting
Dec 10, 2024 to Dec 30, 2024, 7:00 pm at CLUB HOUSE
We had the annual meeting Tuesday December 10. It was a very good meeting. Lots of good questions. A good time was had by all. Good attendance. The budget was approved by ballot. Also after many years we did vote to increase the Rpoa fee from $400 to $500. We have many volunteers that keep all our cost way down. Especially compared to other neighborhoods. There is much to be done in the next year to bring our beautiful neighborhood back. 

News
Our city has done an amazing job arranging for cleanup. 

FROM THE PRESIDENT:
The past two months have been historical for the impacts brought on by hurricane HELENE. The damage within the Rapids ranged from very minimal to catastrophic. The change in the landscape will take generations to recover. I have noticed that this event has brought out our best as neighbors have been helping neighbors through the recovery and moving back to some normalcy. The RPOA infrastructure didn't suffer much
damage. The clubhouse, tennis court and pool did not have any damage. The guard house suffered some minor roof damage and the front sign and water feature are ok.
   
PLease see the November newsletter for a complete update. 

 
EXTRA CAUTION NEEDED
As more people clear trees from their yards the piles of debris along the roads are growing. This is happening not only in the Rapids but all over the City. The is still some debris that is encroaching into the roads and blocking lines of sight at intersections. We all need to slow down and approach every intersection and curve in the road with extreme caution. Everyone needs to drive defensively and be prepared to stop.

It’s a wonderful time of year for family !
MERRY CHRISTMAS
 
HAPPY NEW YEAR…..

Thanks to our wonderful Good Samaritans!
First a special thanks to Ken Hancock who has worked tirelessly for more than 20 years to keep cost down in the neighborhood. Ken is at Emory with by pass surgery. We pray he will recover soon and we can help him for a change. 

Our sincere thanks to the men in our neighborhood who took it upon themselves to remove the trees from our entrance after the hurricane. Your efforts were extraordinary.
 
Lastly we have a team of men on our board that bear the brunt of the upkeep for all of us. You have no idea how much they save this community. 

Many Many Thanks to…..
John Wood, Dylon Miller, Gene Luger, Damon Haley, Som Dasgupta, Steven Vincent, Richard Loflin and Kyle Smith to name only a few. Not to mention our Treasurers who save us 1000s of dollars each year.
