Decorate Your Door or More Contest

Happy Holidays in Chesapeake Station

From the Chesapeake Station Social Committee

Dear Chesapeake Station Owners and Residents
This is a friendly reminder to please remember and follow the Chesapeake Beach Town Code and CSHOA Governing Documents regarding trash and recyclables.
Town Code requires that garbage, trash or debris be placed out for collection only in proper receptacles. HOA Governing documents require that receptacles for household trash and garbage must be of durable hard rubber or plastic material and watertight with tight fitting covers to control odor and prevent animal access. Trash placed in these containers must be bagged.
Yard waste (e.g. grass clippings, twigs, leafs) may be placed out for collection in sturdy bags and recyclables should be placed in blue or yellow bins.
Owners who rent out their property in our development are responsible for ensuring that their tenants follow Town and CSHOA guidelines.
Thank you for your cooperation and for maintaining the cleanliness of our community!
From the Board of Directors
Chesapeake Station

It’s that time again for the CSHOA Annual Owners Meeting. The meeting will be held on Saturday, September 12.
Because of the COVID pandemic, we don’t believe the Northeast Community Center will be open, so we have moved the meeting venue to the open air picnic area on Gordon Stinnett Ave. between the Water Park and Kellam’s Field. Although bench seating is available in the picnic area, please bring a chair so can maintain social distancing. And wear your mask! If the Community Center does open prior to the meeting date, we will try to hold the meeting in one of the upstairs meeting rooms of the Community Center instead. Activities will start at 9:30AM for registration and the business meeting will begin at 10:00AM.
All owners of record will be receiving a hard copy of the meeting materials in a few days. The package consists of:
A Cover Letter
Meeting Agenda
Proxy Form for those who will be unable to attend in person
Current List of Board Nominees
Proposed 2021 budget
Draft 2019 Meeting Minutes for owner approval
Please let us know at cshoa@comcast.net if you do not receive the hard copy mailing. We may have the wrong address for you.
A healthy HOA depends on active participation by owners so please try to attend. A quorum of owners is required at this meeting, either by proxy or physical presence, in order for us to conduct business. So, if you cannot attend, please make sure to fill out, sign, and return the Proxy Form included in the package or hand it to another owner who will be attending.
Some of our Board members will be stepping down this year and we will be particularly looking for owners who are willing to stand as candidates for the Board of Directors. Also, members are always needed for our various committees, so please consider volunteering for one or more of our Committees.
See you there!

Parking Lot & Alley Paving
May 26-28
The HOA Board of Directors has contracted to seal and restripe the townhouse parking lots on C St. and 17th St. and the alley behind the townhouses on the west side of C St. (#7730 to #7792). Contingent on weather, this work will begin on the evening of Tuesday, May 26.
It is IMPERATIVE that all vehicles be removed from the parking lots and alley not later than 3:00PM Tuesday, May 26 and remain out of these areas until Friday, May 29!
Vehicles that are not removed from the parking areas prior to the commencement of paving work will be towed at owner expense!
If the paving work is delayed due to weather, the Board will make every attempt to keep residents informed of schedule changes. For questions, please contact the Board at cshoa@comcast.net.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Spring is Springing
Spring starts on March 19 and the weather is warming. And there are a few items that we’d like to bring to everyone’s attention here at Chesapeake Station.
Please remember that dogs must be leashed at all times while outdoors. This is a courtesy to others, a County law, and a rule of our Association. There’s nothing more disconcerting than walking your dog and having an unleashed dog come bounding up to check out your pet, twisting up your leash, tripping you, and frightening everyone. All the while hearing the other owner yell “Spot, don’t do that!” As if Spot is listening. Please be considerate!
Our Townhouse parking lots are looking a little worn and tired and the Board has decided to contract with a paving company to fill cracks, seal, and re-stripe the lots. We’re waiting for the weather to warm up further and don’t have a date yet for the work. But be on the lookout. The lots will need to be vacated of all vehicles for approximately 3 days when the work is done. The Board will notify everyone when we are scheduled.
As the weather warms, some of you may be considering renewal and repair projects on your property. Remember that, per our Governing Documents, plans for any work on the outside of your home must be submitted to the HOA Architecture Committee for review and approval before you start. This includes landscaping and work on the structure. The application form can be found on our website here.

I don’t know if the fox population in the beaches is increasing but we’ve been hearing reports of more sightings than in the past. A Chesapeake Station resident recently reported seeing a fox on C St. See the video here. Foxes are opportunistic feeders and it’s important that you keep your trash containers well secured. Although cat is not their first choice, they will attack cats if hungry enough or threatened. So also keep your fur babies indoors.

Greetings Everyone
…from the Social Committee.
Decorate your door or more. Judging for the decorating contest will be on Thursday, Dec. 19th, so let’s make Chesapeake Station a Christmas Village.
Happy Holidays.

Volunteers Wanted!
Some of you may have noticed that our private beach has been looking unkempt of late. For the past several years, we have budgeted for and hired a contractor in the Spring to do a beach cleanup for us. A cleanup was done in May but the environment has been working against us and it looks like another cleanup is called for.
Unfortunately, we’ve exhausted our budget this year to hire a contractor for this, so we’re looking for volunteers to help out. We’re organizing a community cleanup of the beach this coming Saturday, November 23 starting @ 9:00AM.
So if you can, please come on out to help, save the HOA a little money, and generate some Chesapeake Station community spirit! Bring gloves and rakes.
