The treasurer announces an increase in monthly dues and tram pass prices, citing rising costs as the reason. Additionally, a plea to keep the neighborhoods safe from bears is highlighted, emphasizing the importance of not leaving out attractants like garbage or bird seed to prevent bear encounters. The newsletter also includes information about the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta schedule, August calls to Sandia Heights Security Patrol, and reminders about emergency situations that do not require ACC applications. Furthermore, the CSC actively seeks volunteers to assist with covenant enforcement for the community.
Residents are advised to be cautious when selecting contractors for repairs or modifications to their residences to avoid potential issues with unlicensed or uninsured individuals.
