February 2024 Update

Save Our Rox continues working to keep the Homestead parcel wild and free forever. This notice will update 3 items:

  1. Board of Directors Vote (by 2/13/24)

  2. Homestead Community Forum (sometime in early Spring ’24)

  3. Neighborhood Update Meet and Greet (Between now and the Community Forum)

Board of Directors Vote: Remember to vote for 2 new members of our Roxborough Park Foundation HOA Board by next Thursday, February 15. The Board has implemented electronic voting so the process is now very easy. If you have not seen the ballot in your email, please check with the HOA office to be sure they have your email on file for your household.

Homestead Community Forum: We have mentioned before that the HOA plans to host a Town Hall meeting to educate the entire community about this issue. Due to the elections for new HOA Board members and their continuing due diligence on all things about the Homestead, this Forum is now slated to happen sometime in early Spring ‘24. Stay tuned.

Neighborhood Small Group Meet and Greet: Having spoken to many people within our community SOR has found that most residents do not have the key facts regarding the Homestead. We also know that approx. 8-10% of the homes “turnover” during a year, so we have many new residents! It is important that the entire community understands the history of the Homestead, the current situation, and how a Conservation Easement would work. Therefore, those of us on the SOR committee are offering to come to your own homestead and meet with you and neighbors to help everyone understand the issues. If you can gather up some of your neighbors for a morning, afternoon or evening we would be happy to share with you an overview we recently gave to the RPF HOA Board. Such a gathering would take 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the questions. If you would like to host and invite your neighbors, please send us a note and we will coordinate times and dates. saveourrox2@gmail.com

Thank you for your ongoing support in the Homestead Marathon we all are running.
