Incorrect Mailing

You may have received a physical mailing of “Camino del Prado Updated Rules” but with “Parkmont Gardens” documents inside. There was a mistake in documents sent by our old management company, and you should receive a proper copy of the Camino del Prado rules soon.
In the meantime, you can always find the rules on our Forms & Documents page.

New Management Company

The Board has hired a new company to manage our community: The Masters Group. We are looking forward to a higher level of communication and attention to detail from their team.

You can continue to email help@caminodelprado.org with any questions and requests.

Rupa Pal: New Treasurer

Rupa Pal has graciously volunteered to be our new treasurer. The Board is excited to have her on board (pun intended ?). From Rupa:

Hello! My name is Rupa Pal and I have been a resident of this community for over 10 years. I am very excited to be a part of the Board and take an active participation in making this a great place for us. I look forward to your support and cooperation. Thank you.

Rules Update

A new copy of the Rules & Regulations has been posted to the Forms and Documents page. Changes:

  • Vehicles parked in the common area parking must have current registration, license plates, and be in an operable condition or they will be subject to tow.
  • Vehicles that are not moved for 30 days will be subject to tow.
  • The fee to rent the clubhouse for the first 5 hours is $75 and a full day rental will be $100, in advance.

Clubhouse Pool Tables

The pool tables in the clubhouse have gotten a quick makeover with new covers and lights. (Thanks to Mehmet who drove these updates.)

As a reminder, we don’t supply pool balls in the clubhouse because windows and walls kept getting holes punched in them. You are welcome to bring your own pool balls. (Pool balls can also be checked out when renting the clubhouse, but please check in advance to ensure availability.)

BANKING CHANGE

Cityscape Property Management in conjunction with BKLynch Associates, the HOA’s accounting firm, are working with Alliance Association Bank to make available their national banking program that works exclusively with common interest communities. Alliance Association Bank is one of the nation’s leading banking institutions for community management companies and homeowner associations and was recently rated as a top-10 bank in the country by Forbes.

Watch for a letter from BKLynch Associates, explaining the changes in detail. We are switching banks and you will need to change the method you use to pay your HOA dues.

If you have any questions about how to establish your autopayments with Alliance Association Bank, please contact BKLynch Associates at 866-289-6000 or HOAbilling@bklassociates.com.

We understand that this switch may cause confusion with regular payments and will have a grace period for at least one month where there will be no late fees. Payments made to our previous bank will be declined, so you should not see double billing.

Draft Rules Change

Based on feedback we received during the annual meeting, the Board has approved the following draft changes to the rules for 28-Day membership review.
