Brian Mulawka

New Director

I am putting my name forward because I want to make sure homeowner rates are kept as low as possible, and that the HOA doesn't bring in unnecessary rules or get involved in areas it doesn't need to.

My dad owned a home construction company for many years (he's now retired) and I worked with him off and on for several years: I had my Realtor license for a couple years; I did some work on contracts (but I'm no expert); and I also helped on the jobsites sometimes (where I'm definitely not an expert). I don't know everything about this, and I've never been part of an HOA before, but I am willing to get involved to make sure the HOA doesn't waste everyone's money

New Director

Father of 4. As many of you were never told of an HOA, we were not either. I even asked to double check and I was told no. My goal is to have no fee’s or as little as allowed. The letter we all received with ridiculous administration fee’s is a scam. I will do everything in my power to eliminate or make the fee as small as possible
