ATTENTION Residents and Neighbors:

This message is to inform you that the owner of our management company, BWK, is retiring. While this has left us in an awkward position of finding a new management company at the inopportune time of the holiday season, our search was successful and we have chosen a replacement. Cornerstone Management Company will take over our HOA January 1st. Be on the lookout for letters being mailed in January or sooner with information regarding dues, which will be delayed to prevent any confusion with payments.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Dear Resident(s):

Republic Services will be in the neighborhood on 1/19/24 to pick up any trash bins, for residents that did not reach out to them to keep their services. If you wish to keep their services, please contact them, or another carrier of your choice. If you have chosen another carrier, please have your trash bins placed at the end of your driveway near the street on 1/19/24. Failure to return the bins to Republic will result charges and fees to the homeowner from Republic Services. Failure to obtain Trash/Waste services, or improper storage of trash on your property, will result in fines and liens from the HOA or the city of Louisville.

There have been numerous complaints regarding the Street Parking, Parking in Yards, and storage of Trash receptacles. I have sent numerous warning notices per Hudson Lake Estates, CCR’s. Violators will be turned over to our legal counsel, if the breaches are not cured. Further, the City will be notified via 311, and if your car is considered to be improperly registered i.e. expired tags and non-insured, or inoperable you could be imposed fines or your vehicle impounded.

I will be emailing a copy of the Rules and Regulations for reference for all of the residents to review. If you are in violation with any of same, please comply to avoid legal action.

Below is the Jefferson County Ordinance for Parking on the Street/Yard. As you will see, it is strictly prohibited. Code Enforcement can enforce a fine of $100.00 per day, and lien your home (complaints have also been made to their department).

Please be on the lookout for mailing for the Annual meeting which will be held in March! Thank you for your cooperation!

A concerned resident called with a complaint of several individuals roaming the neighborhood, claiming to be selling services for ATT. I have called ATT and they cannot confirm that the representatives work for them. Please be cautious of a possible scam.

Has anyone had direct contact with these individuals? I will try to post an image in the comments.

Hello everyone! The below letters was emailed to everyone via the online resident portal with the 2023 Approved Annual Budget. The notices as well as Budget will be mailed out this week.

In re: 2023 Approved Budget and
2023 Annual Homeowners Association Dues Dear Resident(s):

As we all know the pasts few years have been extremely hard for everyone. The Board has diligently tried to keep up with inflation and unexpected expenditures.

This year, the dues will increase $15.00 per year, from $350.00 (2022 dues) to $365.00,(2023 dues). This will allow the neighborhood to cover the Budget shortfalls of 2022. Payments are due on January 15, 2023, and considered late and will be assessed a late fee of $25.00 as of February 28, 2023.

Failure, by any homeowner, or any owner currently under default by non- payment, will result in your account being turned over to legal collections. Any past due homeowners, will need to contact
this office and make payment arrangements to prevent legal collection actions, and undue additional fees to your account. If you have not contacted our office, by December 31, 2022, and
are delinquent, your trash services will be suspended (Trash is a large portion of our budget and is billed per home and included in the dues above).

Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact Cindy Wilson at 502-213-3154 (office) or cindy@bwkmanagment, at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,

BWK Property Management, on behalf of Hudson Lake Estates Board of Dire

Once again reports of people getting into cars in the neighborhood. Please keep your eyes out. We can’t let this become commonplace. This last incident happened on Lake Erie, last night.
