Sometimes the small things can make a big difference – like submitting your Eagle Nest proxy to update our neighborhood covenants. That’s what lot owners Annette Donegan (Lot 034) of Sandpiper Court, Aaron Lopez (Lot 207) of Tanager Lane, and Jerry Larson (Lot 319) of Shrike Court did, and each was randomly selected to win a $25 Visa gift card just for turning in their ballot. We can’t say how they voted, but we’re thankful they took two seconds to make their voice heard! As you probably know, the Board is seeking to protect our property values by banning short-term rentals, and maintaining our community aesthetics by clarifying rules on parking and garbage. The Board believes these central issues will define our community’s future. Why leave those decisions to someone else? Fill out your proxy, drop it in our secure Clubhouse mailbox at 8075 Teel Way or email it to our new Association address: MyEagleNestHOA@gmail.com . About 140 lot owners were eligible for our first drawing – a one...

Thanks to everyone who turned out for our inaugural Eagle Nest Pickleball Tournament last weekend! We had 10 players, five teams and a lot of fun on our newly resurfaced and repaired sports courts! New resident Rob McMurray and his mom took first place after four games. High fives to residents Dave Ouse, Guy Harper, Lynn Hill, Vicki Dine and Chuck Mayfield, and their guests for a competitive yet fun Saturday afternoon. And there's more Pickleball action ahead. Tournament organizer Chuck Mayfield (above, in Retirement Plan shirt) encourages interested players of all skill levels to join open play every Thursday, starting at 7 p.m., through mid-October. Don't know the rules or looking for a partner? Come on down to the courts and join our pickleball community! Questions? Email Chuck at cmayfield@comcast.net

Do you like free stuff? How about a $25 gift card? Fill out your proxy ballot for our covenant revision campaign, drop it in our Clubhouse mailbox or email it to MyEagleNestHOA@gmail.com and the Board will enter you into our weekly drawing for one of three Visa gift cards. No strings attached (other than lot owners can only enter once). To some, this might smell like we’re buying votes. Nope, not at all. It’s simply a thank you to lot owners for participating in the voting process – whether they’re in support or against the initiative – and making sure their voice is heard. If you already turned in your proxy, you’re good – you’ll be in our first drawing Wednesday, Sept. 23. After that, we’ll have gift card drawings weekly for all new proxy submissions, on Sept. 30 and Oct. 7. Don’t miss out – submit your proxy now! As a reminder, the proposed amendments seek to protect our property values by banning short-term rentals, and maintaining the aesthetics of our community by clarifying ru...

By now you may have seen postings or heard discussion about the Board’s proposed updates to our 50-year-old neighborhood Declarations, the shared guidance on rentals, parking and other concerns in Eagle Nest. In July, neighborhood volunteers distributed a packet with the information to all 419 homes in our development, and hundreds of reminder emails have gone out with the existing Declarations for comparison . (If you can’t find your packet, please contact Board President Scott Thien or Vice President John Strauss .) The new proposals have been posted multiple times on the ENPOA Facebook page and the Eagle Nest Blog , along with a detailed account of last week's well-attended Board meeting, including resident questions and remarks. We know these proposals aren't perfect for everybody. In a neighborhood of 419 homes there will be many opinions about how best to protect our property values. But we have to start somewhere. With regard to the proposed ban on short-term rentals,...

The September Board meeting was one of the most heavily attended in recent years, with residents raising detailed questions about rental restrictions, transparency, and long‑term infrastructure needs. Residents spent more than 45 minutes discussing proposed covenant updates, particularly the section aimed at limiting rentals, including Airbnbs and other short-term rentals. Several residents expressed concern that the draft language felt “too restrictive,” especially regarding: Whether land‑contract sales would be allowed Whether family members (such as aging parents or adult children with special needs) could live in a home not titled in their name How exceptions would be handled Board members emphasized that the language was drafted by a national HOA law firm and reflects “best practices,” but acknowledged that some scenarios, especially family‑care situations, require clarification. The Board confirmed it has already sent follow‑up questions to the attorneys. Residents also asked wh...
