Vision 2026

My vision for 2026 is to continue building on the strong momentum we have created while focusing on infrastructure, safety, communication, and long-term sustainability for Braun Station West. 

Key priorities include:

1. Tezel Clubhouse roof replacement to ensure the long-term integrity of the facility.(Insurance will pay for majority of this expense)

2. Brigadoon drainage project to address ongoing water management and property protection

3. Landscape and xeriscape enhancements to improve curb appeal, conserve water, and reduce maintenance costs

4. Lighting and security upgrades, including the installation of a camera system to monitor both HOA properties

5. Replacement of the Tezel Clubhouse flooring to modernize and improve safety and usability

In addition to physical improvements, I remain committed to strong and transparent communication. We will continue publishing both hardcopy and digital newsletters every two months to keep all residents informed. I am also dedicated to improving our HOA website, expanding email alerts, and fully utilizing our Facebook page for real-time updates, photos, and increased community engagement. As always, I encourage homeowner involvement and look forward to hearing your ideas & feedback. 

I respectfully ask for your support as we look ahead to another productive and exciting year. Together, we will continue to ensure that Braun Station West remains a community we are proud to call home.
