JANUARY 2013
Dear Fellow Bull Domingo Owners,
Attached you will find the 2013 edition of the Bull Domingo Ranch Property Owners’ Association Membership Directory. It is as current and complete as we can make it. Your Association is in a strong financial position, and enjoys a high level of membership participation. The Directory lists Members, Directors, Committee Chairmen and advertisers who support the Association. Please support these advertisers when you have the chance.
During 2012 your Board of Directors decided to change to a bi-monthly meeting schedule. For 2013 and beyond, the Board will meet on the second Sunday of January, March, May, September, and November. The Annual Meeting is held the third Friday of July, which will be the 19th this year. If required, the Board can always confer electronically or hold special meetings. We hope everyone will take the opportunity to attend the Annual meeting. Election ballots and meeting information will be mailed to all property owners well ahead of the meeting date. You can also consult the BDRPOA web site (www.bulldomingoranch.org) to obtain the time and place for any Board meeting.
In talking with property owners, we have discovered that many have eliminated their standard telephone land line in favor of a cell phone number. I would like to remind all property owners that they can sign up for a reverse 911 cell phone security call service with the Custer County Sheriff. It is best to stop by the Sheriff’s Office to fill out the form, but it can be arranged by calling the Sheriff’s Office at 719 783-2270. There is no charge for the first cell phone number.
We are looking forward to a wonderful year here on the ranch, and wish everyone a happy 2013.
Sincerely,
Robert Weisenbach, President
BDRPOA Board of Directors
ANNUAL MEETING PRESIDENT’S LETTER – 2012
Hello From Bull Domingo Ranch
Spring has arrived in the Wet Mountain Valley, and summer can’t be far behind. There are reports of record small mouth bass being caught in Lake DeWeese, and the fly fishermen say the angling in the Arkansas River has been very good as well. For hikers and ATV riders, it’s good to check at the Forest Service office before heading out. They post the conditions of all trails in both the Sangre de Cristo and Wet Mountains. Some trails in the Sangres are still blocked by trees blown down in last Novembers storm. The whole valley is still short on rain, but we’re hoping for the best. With the rain we have had, the roads committees have been hard at work on both the North and South sides. Grading and gravel are the name of the game.
Our recent change from monthly to bi-monthle Board of Directors meetings has worked out just fine. Our meetings are now the second Sunday of January, March, May, July (Annual Meeting July 20th), September and November. The Board will always be able to respond to an emergency with a meeting any time, and monthly financial statements will still be published on the web site (bulldomingoranch.org). Please be aware that you may contact any board member if you have a question. The names and contact information for board members can be found in your 2012 Directory.
We are encouraged by the sight of new homes, additions, and out buildings being built on the ranch. This is a spectacular place to live, and both old and new property owners are choosing to build homes here. With building generally slow in the valley, there are many good contractors available to work with owners who want to build.
As always, we hope all owners will have the opportunity to visit their property, and you are encouraged to join your board, and fellow association members at the Annual Meeting on July 20th at R‘s Restaurant. Information concerning the time of the meeting is contained in the attached materials, along with your ballot for election of Board members, and approval of the Proposed 2013 Budget. We look forward to seeing you at the meeting or around the ranch.
Sincerely,
Robert Weisenbach, President
Bull Domingo Ranch Property Owners Association
