Don't Forget : HOA Dues
Don't forget that the annual LaFayette Ridge Homeowners Association dues are now due. This year the dues are $15. 100% participation would be wonderful - even if you aren't an "active" member of the HOA.
Dues pay for our annual cookouts, the Christmas dinner, the power bill for the front entrance lights and other items that pop up during the year. Please submit your check, made payable to the LaFayette Ridge HOA, to Paul Smith.
Financial reports are available at all times for your review.

3 Mailboxes Damaged or Destroyed Saturday Night
School has only been out for one week and LaFayette Ridge has already been the target of vandals. Three mailboxes in the subdivision were either damaged or completely destroyed Saturday night/Sunday morning.
Please keep an eye out for our neighbors. Call the police if any suspicious activity is seen.
And while we are on the subject of mailboxes, it's that time of year again to spruce up your mailbox with a fresh coat of paint. Let's keep our neighborhood looking beautiful.

Burnouts in the Neighborhood
Several neighbors have complained recently about teenagers doing burnouts in the neighborhood. The latest incident occurred on Saturday afternoon on LaFayette Court. Neighbors have indicated that they will speak to the mother of the teenager involved.
Please talk to your teen drivers and remind them that our neighborhood is a place where children play freely. They should be respectful of the neighborhood, their fellow neighbors and all driving laws.
