Greetings Fellow DM3 Homeowners,

You’ll find the Unapproved Minutes of the recent August 14, 2024 Board meeting posted on our website, www.desertmeadows3.com.

The Grounds and Weeds Committee asks that you stay vigilant with weeding and trimming. The Monsoon rains bring overgrowth.

Mark your calendars: The next Wine and Cheese Social is planned for Saturday, September 21st from 5-7pm at Abrego South. More information on that will be forthcoming.

Please be thinking about running for a Board position for next year. There will be openings. They are three-year terms. Without a working Board, the business of the HOA cannot be carried out. Without an HOA, we lose our 55+ status with the State. If interested in finding out more information, please contact nominations@desertmeadows3.com.

Please remember that the Board and the Committee members are all volunteers. They devote their time and effort into trying to maintain this HOA to the best of their ability. Most of our members pay their annual dues and adhere to the CC&Rs realizing it is the best way to protect their property values. A few members, however, don’t seem to care which presents a real challenge. The Board will be developing and publishing policies to address these issues of non-compliance.

Thank you.

DM3 HOA Board of Directors

Bill, Dan, Debra, Marsha, Tom, Mike, and Randy

Greetings to our Fellow DM3 Homeowners!

The Unapproved Minutes of the May 15, 2024 Board Meeting are now posted on the website, desertmeadows3.com. Please go to the website and read the Minutes if you want to stay up to date on the happenings taking place in our community. It’s a long one, there was much to discuss.

A few of the Highlights are:

The Treasurer will be moving some funds from Checking and Savings to purchase three (3) more $5,000 CDs so we can benefit from the interest.

The Grounds & Weeds Committee will begin their inspections in the next few days. Please get your weeds and tree and shrub trimming under control to avoid a G & W Notice. We would all like to take pride in the wonderful community we have here.

The Social Committee will be sending out a reminder Eblast this weekend about the upcoming Carport Coffee Social which will be on May 23rd.

The overgrowth along the Freeway behind S. San Vincent continues to encroach creating a potential fire hazard. Since that area is really ADOTs responsibility but they do not want to maintain it, options will be discussed with GV Council about the best solution. We have TV Investigative News and GV Newspaper contact information to distribute via a future Eblast in the hope that, with enough exposure, ADOT can be held accountable. Watch for more information on that.

It is with a heavy heart that we inform you of the passing of Mike Norman, a past Board and Nominations Committee member. Rest in Peace Mike.

Much more information was covered during the meeting and is included in the Minutes posted on our website. Please take the time to read them.

Thank you.

Your Board of Directors,
Bill, Dan, Debra, Tom, Marsha, Mike, and Randy

Dear Fellow DM3 Homeowners,

The Board meeting last Wednesday, November 15th was well attended with a good discussion regarding the possibility of a Neighborhood Watch program.

The Unapproved Minutes of the meeting are posted on our website: www.desertmeadows3.com.

Reminders to Members:

Please bring along your GVR entry card when attending meetings at GVR facilities. It is the only way to gain entry into the closed door unless someone sees you or hears your knocks and lets you in. GVR does not allow us to leave the door propped open as was done in the past.

We are a 55+ community meaning one resident in the home must be at least 55 years of age and children under the age of 18 are only allowed to visit for a total of 30 days in a calendar year.

Please adhere to a speed limit of 25mph on the neighborhood side streets. Exceeding the speed limit poses a potential danger to community members.

Please do not park vehicles in the alleyways. Alleyways need to stay clear for utility and emergency vehicles.

Please keep after the weeds and trimming to tidy up your yards and your ½ of the alleyways.

Members interested in serving on the Board must send their Biographies to the Nominations Committee by November 30th to get on the January ballot. They can be emailed to nominations@desertmeadows3.com or mailed to: Desert Meadows III, Inc. HOA, PP Box 271, Green Valley, AZ 85622.

Dues Invoices ($35.00) and Ballots will be mailed out January 2, 2024.

Thank you. We look forward to seeing you at the Annual meeting on February 14, 2024!

Your DM3 Board,

Bill, Randy, Debra, Tom, Marsha, and Morris
