Guest Parking Signs
Please note that in our continued effort to keep our Neighborhood safe and organized, we will be installing Guest Parking signs in all the common area parking spaces. As part of this effort, we will also be restriping the lines in the Guest Parking areas to make clear where the spaces are. As homeowners know, we do have parking rules and encourage all neighbors to comply with these rules. The Guest Parking is for our Guests. Homeowners have their own designated parking areas.
Please contact Steve Chinn with questions.
Thank you

Garron Grounds Owner and General Manager Passes Away
GARRON GROUNDS OWNER AND GENERAL MANAGER PASSES AWAY
Your CHOA Board is sad to inform you that Ken Bartus, owner of Garron Grounds, passed away in his sleep at home on Monday night. Ken was dedicated to serving our community as he has done for many years. That dedication was further evidenced by Ken putting into place, through his will and management documents, instructions for the continuation of his business.
CHOA’s property manager, Steve Chinn, and Landscape Chair, Karen Siegel, have met with Garron Staff. We have been assured that Garron’s general landscape and irrigation maintenance service to our Community will continue and that Garron will have staff available for any emergencies. We ask that any special requests for landscape and/or irrigation issues be directed to Steve Chinn or Karen Siegel who will work directly with Garron staff.
Thank you
CHOA LOOKING FOR NEW BOARD MEMBER
Our current Architectural Chair, Doug Parker, has recently purchased a new home that is not located in the CHOA association (but is still in Charbonneau so we aren’t losing him entirely to our larger community) so will be resigning his position effective October 1, 2020. We will miss his expertise and leadership on the board.
We are seeking a new Board member, ideally someone with some legal background. This is not a requirement. This is a great opportunity to have input on what happens in your neighborhood.
If you are interested or would like more information, please contact Barry Hendrix at 503-754-0322
New Statewide Rules on Get-togethers and Face Coverings

Reminder- Feeding of Wild birds or animals except Hummingbirds is Prohibited in CHOA
As you know, we have seen an increase in the number of wild animals in Charbonneau- there have been recent reports and sightings of Skunks, Raccoons, Rats and Mice. Also, the local Squirrel population is getting larger. They like to chew on the sprinkler heads which can destroy them and then we have to spend CHOA funds to replace the sprinkler heads.
In order to try to stem this trend, we want to help eliminate as much of their food sources as possible. Therefore, we are asking that each CHOA neighbor refrain from feeding any animals and/or birds anywhere in CHOA or around your home except for Hummingbirds. This includes inside your courtyard also.
In addition, please feed your pets indoors only and don’t leave them unsupervised outside.
Thanks in advance for your help here to make CHOA a safer neighborhood.
