  • In an effort to collect as many TEHA e-mail addresses as possible, a form will be mailed to residents whose e-mail addresses are not on file. TEHA hopes to become more paperless and more efficient for communication purposes.

  • The $3,500 TEHA has been paying for annual lawn service for easement areas has been discontinued.

  • The President will investigate/clarify the sub insurance issue; the insurance currently covers the sub’s common areas and the officers. Other subs carry insurance, but cost is an issue.

  • The Annual Ice Cream Social was supported and will be continued (September).

  • Dues collection will begin from now on in JANUARY of each year for the usual $40. Sign reminders will be posted. Dues can be sent to TEHA - 1864 Pelican Ct.

Committee members Nicole and Roland Pezold and Eva Lacki will study feasibility of watering systems and low maintenance shrubs and plants. President Carol Kohut volunteered to contact a lawn company that will maintain cutting, edging, and mulch placement (each spring) for the 2 entranceways.

  • A proposal was made to re-institute the TEHA Annual Picnic at Bemis during the summer, some time during the 1st week of June. Chris Hagey and Karen Best will chair this committee.

  • The up-coming TEHA Annual Halloween Parade will take place at 4:30 PM on October 31 at the Lark/Chatham island and end with pizza refreshments. Donations are welcome!

  • The TEHA Secretary position has been filled by Bernie Lourim, our sub’s TROY SCHOOL BOARD candidate. Bernie will assume the officer position after the Nov. 3 election.
