September 2023 President’s Message:

Recently I sent out a notice regarding the current Tennessee Special Legislative Session, encouraging everyone to be aware of what our legislators are up to and submit your comments to them. If you missed this it can be found on the HOA web site:  Important Message from HOA President, Mark Pantley: – Tellico Village HomeOwners Association (hoatellicovillage.com)

Similarly, there are also important things happening at our local level in Tellico Village. Our POA acts very much like a town government, and it depends on us as residents to help guide its actions. After all, Tellico Village is resident run!

POA Board elections are coming up in November. There are 2 open seats this year. HOA has a Candidates Forum planned for October 12, 4-6pm, at the Tellico Village Community Church. Candidates will be responding to standard questions, and you’ll have an opportunity to ask your own questions as well.

The ACC has proposed several changes to our Blue Book. It was discussed at the last POA Board meeting (you can review this at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=813Z4FgEFfw). The Board asked the ACC to review several of the proposed changes, so it’s not too late for you to have input on this important governance process.

During Chet’s update to the Board on POA operations he mentioned that bidding for a restaurant contract is ongoing. 6 bid requests were sent out and 3 were received back. While we can’t see the details of the bid responses, there is still time to send your views in on our restaurants and what you would like in the future. This will help them as the bids are evaluated. The new contract is to start in 2024. It covers all 4 of our restaurants:  Toqua, Tanasi, Yacht Club, and Kahite. You can send comments in through the Help Spot:  Tellico Village Help Spot.

The Tanasi Rebuild project continues to move forward. All of the updates and a place to make comments are found on the POA web site:  Tanasi Updates – Tellico Village Property Owners Association (tellicovillagepoa.org)

The 2024 budget process has started. The budget calendar is available on the Finance page of the POA web site:  Finance – Tellico Village Property Owners Association (tellicovillagepoa.org)

Be aware, be involved, make a difference. It’s your village.

Mark Pantley
