On Monday, January 17th, the pool will be closed for a planned repair and replastering project. The repairs are expected to take six weeks, should all go well and the weather cooperates. The worst-case expectation is the pool would not reopen until April.
The repairs will require drainage of the pool, chipping off the old plaster, tile, and coping, and then installation of new plaster, tile, and coping. During the repair process please do not enter the pool premises for your safety.
During the holiday break, the new Shadow Brook Phone App and Website went live (Condo Control). Welcome letters with enrollment instructions were sent out to all members and associates via email and USPS mail.
If for some reason you didn’t receive the “Welcome Letter” please send an email to splasher@nullshadowbrook.org with the following information, and a new Welcome letter will be sent to you promptly.
Please note, the ”Welcome Letter” is needed to gain access to the Condo Control website and phone application. You can make Shadow Brook’s 2022 homeowner dues payment online via the web portal, but the phone application currently does not support online payments. Here is a short brief explaining How to Make SB Member Dues Payment Online.
Some features of the Condo Control web portal and app are:
As we transition to the full capability of Condo Control over the coming months, we will see cost savings to the HOA. For example, we are hopeful that many will opt-in to having the Splasher newsletter delivered online. If half our members opt-in to online delivery, we will reduce the $6,000 annual cost of producing & delivering the Splasher by half.
PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT the associate dues. This notice is for the Shadow Brook Homeowner member yearly dues only.
The Shadow Brook Board at the November 2021 General Meeting approved a $675 annual HOA member dues assessment for 2022, due and payable as of January 1, 2022. Payments received online or with USPS postmarks after February 15, 2022, will incur a $50 late fee.
We are encouraging everyone to subscribe to Condo Control and pay online – via Bank ACH or credit card – to ease the task of collecting and processing 318 individual checks. Here is a short brief explaining How to Make SB Member Due Payment Online.
Online payments will incur fees as follows:
Payments via check should be mailed to
Please advise of any contact or rental status updates via email to president@nullshadowbrook.org.
Interest on all sums including delinquent assessments, late charges, and lien fees will accrue at an annual percentage rate of 12%, not compounding, commencing after February 15th. Any sums remaining after a partial payment are still subject to collection. This includes payment of the base assessment where any or all of the late charge lien fees and interest are still uncollected. The payment postmark will serve as the sole indication of a delinquent payment. Any Liens will be filed consistent with CC&R’s, Section 9B. Lien filing fees will be the higher of $175.00 or the actual expenses for the filing and added to the delinquent amount.
There will be a Shadow Brook Board Meeting on January 11, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. As with all our meetings during the pandemic, it will be a ‘Zoom” meeting online.
Board Meetings are meetings that are held about 10 times a year. While Homeowners Meetings, like the one held in November, are geared towards providing the Homeowners with important information, the Board Meetings are primarily for the Board to discuss activities of the various components of Shadow Brook and vote on certain expenditures and such. However, at Board Meetings, as with all non-special meetings, Homeowners are certainly welcome to attend.

To aid communication within Shadow Brook we will be using a new Shadow
Brook app by the end of the year. Some features of the app are:
To fully utilize and access the online and phone-based apps you will need your email address. If we already have your email address you will be receiving a Welcome Email in December telling you how to access the app. If you have not yet provided the Shadow Brook board with your email address, you will be getting the same instructions via a letter sent via the Postal Service.
We are looking forward to this excellent improvement in Shadow Brook communications!
