2010 Voting Ballot Results - The Oak Grove HOA annual meeting was held on Thursday, March 4, 2010 in the Denham Oaks Elem. School cafeteria. 37 resident owners out of 875 residential lots attended the annual meeting to meet the board, obtain updates about approved pond & maintenance projects, and ask questions to the Board and committee chairpersons. The Board and residents thank the St. Pete Times for the delicious refreshments as part of Oak Grove's partnership through a Community Development Program. During the meeting, several residents volunteered to count the number of ballot received since January 1, 2010. A disappointing count totaled 417 ballots (out of 875 potential ballots). This total remains well below the number of ballots required (588 ballots) to permit an amendment change. The board welcomes your ideas and communication about how the residents and Board can motivate all residents to voice their vote to make a difference in OUR community! Please email the President with your thoughts! (posted 3/5/10)

residents of our community. Not only are resident volunteers
welcomed for needed improvements and repair throughout the
community, the HOA is seeking licensed and insured contractors for
various HOA repairs needed. These repairs include: repairs to stucco
walls and columns, pressure washing and painting of walls, and
electrical repairs and improvements. If you specialize in any of
these areas, please contact us via email to
president@oakgrovehoa.com.
Change of Address Form Requirement – Unless otherwise notified, all HOA information will be mailed to your Oak Grove Address or address the HOA has on file.

Volunteers Needed – Our community consists of 875 homes which are monitored on a monthly basis for violations of the deed restrictions and Architectural approvals required. Subcommittee members are needed on the Violations Committee to determine the applicable action necessary for noncompliance residents to our deed restrictions. Architectural members are needed to review and approve the monthly requests of resident intentions to modify/improve their property’s exterior as allotted by the HOA documents. Maintenance members are needed to continuously monitor the 265 acres of HOA related property, including 79.51 acres of ponds/storm water system (constituting 36% of Oak Grove in total). Currently, a very small group of community members are working tirelessly to make a difference in our community. We need your help! Please join your community by becoming a member of a committee (which does not require being a board member). Help your community by providing your knowledge, experience, expertise, and/or assistance to our current hard-working volunteers! Please email April at president@oakgrovehoa.com to volunteer or get more information on the committees. (posted 1/1/08)
