of the new year on January 7th the following officers were elected
within the BOT: President, Dena Seligman; Vice President, Lisa Boyer;
Treasurer, Delbert Bassett; Secretary, Margaret Paine; Trustee, Tom

House Numbers Our fire department has made an earnest request that
homeowners in our neighborhood display easy-to-read house numbers on
all homes. Please ensure that vegetation or other materials are not
obscuring your house number. The safety of your family members may
depend on the ability of emergency personnel to locate your home quickly,
day or night.
What about a party? BOT member Lisa
Boyer has offered to be the contact person for any members who would
be interested in planning a Meet Your
Neighbor party or other social event. Email a message to Lisa via the
site webmaster. It would be
helpful if you put "Neighborhood Party" in the subject line.
Clubs and a Bartering Service Some of our members have raised the question
of whether there is any interest in GWW in establishing a bartering
service where members can publicize their professions/skills and trade
time for services. There has also been mention of starting a Garden
Club, a moms’ group, and a Bunko group. If you have an interest
in these or other ideas for our neighborhood, contact the editor. Contact
information is listed on the last page of this newsletter.Website for
Goldenwood West The BOT approved a proposal made by member Margaret
Paine to design and publish an informational website for our neighborhood
at no cost to the POA. In the interest of making this site as useful
as possible for the neighborhood, any residents who have suggestions
for content which they would like to see on the site are encouraged
to contact Margaret at gww@zpgraphic.com or 894-0903.
Please remember that all meetings of the BOT and the APC are open to
the homeowners. The dates and times are posted on the mail station
bulletin board. Attend a meeting to learn what is going on in
your neighborhood.

News from the APC
The APC is looking for a new member to fill a recently vacated position. This
neighborhood committee meets once a month to review applications for
property improvements and complaints of violations of the Goldenwood
West Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CCRs). The committee
is comprised of 3 property owners who are interested in enforcing
the CCRs and keeping up with current issues in our neighborhood.
The APC is scheduled to meet on January 20 and February 17 at
7:00 p.m. Loose Dogs The Hays County Animal Control Ordinance states: “Dogs
are to be restrained by a leash or fence, unless the owner is
on the property and is able to verbally command the animal to
stay on his/her property. If the animal is found unrestrained,
Hays County Animal Control can either issue a citation to the
owner (if the owner is known) or impound the animal at PAWS Animal Shelter
in Kyle, Texas. All dogs are required to be current on their rabies vaccinations.
All dogs are required to be licensed through Hays County.” Goldenwood
West Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions state: “No pets, animals,
livestock or poultry of any kind shall be raised, bred or kept on any
Lot, except that: (a) Domestic pets may be kept confined at all
times inside any residence on a Lot; and (b) No more than
two dogs, may be kept for non-commercial purposes for each full
Lot if fenced in a manner and location acceptable to the Committee
and if never allowed to run at large within the Subdivision. No
animal(s) may be kept which, in the sole discretion of the Committee,
shall create any noise or odor nuisance.” If
you see a loose dog, contact Hays County Animal Control at (512) 393-7896 and
request that the animal be picked up. Be sure to document the date
and time of the call. Please note the owner and owner’s
