Annual Meeting Announcement

Meetings, Newsletters

Good day Members,

A quick note to share some information of what is happening in the HOA. As you know from the previous newsletter the Covenant Vote did not pass. Thank you to those that responded to the Survey on Voting; it gave us some good information to amend the ballot. 

The Board feels it is still necessary to update the Covenants. When you think about it, the Covenants we have are from the 20th Century and here we are 26 years into the 21st Century. Some of our members may be younger than the covenants.

The Board is planning on having the Covenants back out for a vote in September. This ballot will be different. The last ballot was an all or nothing ballot. This Ballot will have some changes made based on the survey we did and comments received. We will have several of the proposed changes voted upon individually.

Mark your calendars for September 23, 2026 at 5:00 PM for our Annual Membership Meeting. Anyone will be able to purchase drinks from the Club House and we will have some snacks provided for those attending. The first half hour will be a time to socialize a little before starting the meeting. We plan to have ballots available so you may cast your vote right there.

I also want to let you know that some of you will be getting a reminder that you might be out of compliance with the Covenants. The Board is asking that you help us out and implement a plan to bring your home into compliance. This is not something the Board wants to do but when we get complaints from members to address a problem, it is necessary that we address all problems. To be fair to all of our members we cannot ignore some and address others. All of us have a responsibility to each other to live within the HOA Rules.

I recently found some information from a study published in the Journal of Economics (2019) . This research found that a house located in a community with an active HOA command at least a 4% higher price than similar homes located outside of an HOA. The National Association of Realtors gives that number at 5-6% higher value. That means a home selling for $700,000 nets the owner $28,000 – $36,000 more than a similar home in town or another area with no HOA.

Taking care of our property helps all of us. Personally, I want to be the person that helps my neighbors in many different ways. I know that all the Board Members are serving to help our neighborhood. I believe that all of us want to be that good neighbor. It is in our blood or we wouldn’t have picked this neighborhood.

See you at the September 23 Annual meeting. The agenda is below.

2025 Annual Meeting

Meetings

Hello Dos Rios 3,

Coming up on Labor Day already, seems like we just had the 4th of July. Fall is just around the corner and that means it is time for the Dos Rios 3 HOA Annual Homeowners Meeting.  Like the past several years this will be held at Dos Rios Golf Course Club House.  The date we gave on the last newsletter has had to be changed due to a conflict at the Clubhouse.  The Dos Rios 3 Annual Meeting will be Friday September 26 beginning at 5:30 PM.  A social time will be held between 5:00 and 5:30 PM.  

The Covenant Committee  has completed their proposed changes. {Thank you covenant Committee for your efforts that included meetings, honest discussions, and compromises to get to consensus.) The Board has reviewed those changes and recently reviewed them with our legal counsel where minor changes were made  to ensure they are legally clear.  The proposed changes will be presented at the Annual Meeting with time given for open discussion.  The proposed Covenant changes will also be placed on our website, DosRios3.com, for your review prior to the annual meeting.  Beginning in October we will be sending the Covenants out for a vote to all members.  Each lot will have one vote by the owner. As an HOA that falls under Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act (CCIOA), it will take 67% of the eligible votes to be in the affirmative to pass the new covenants.  

The annual meeting is also election time. The positions of Secretary and President are up for election for a 3 year term. We also need to elect a Treasurer for a 2 year term.  In addition we have one 2 year and one 3 year term for Member at Large positions.  If you are interested please contact one of the Board members so we can introduce you at the meeting.  If you are interested in any of these positions and are unable to make the meeting, again please let a Board member know and give them a little write up as to why you are running. We will read your statement of interest at the Annual Meeting.

Included please find the Agenda. Also a Proxy to give to the person of your choice to vote for you at the Annual meeting if you can’t attend.. Hope to see all of you at the annual meeting.
