The Lincolnshire Homeowners Association Board is made up of unpaid volunteers. Beyond the LHA Board, it takes a village to maintain and improve our neighborhood. We encourage residents to partner up with a neighbor to take on just one task such as Facebook maintenance, website maintenance, Financial Review Committee, Board advisory, or to be a part of a park planning advisory group. Email the Board if you will help to better your neighborhood.
We believe in transparency. Bylaw Article XI: The books, records, papers of the association shall be subject to inspection by any member during ordinary business hours with 10 days’ written notice. Board meetings and records are open to homeowners. If you would like to attend, please email the Board for a place on the agenda and a meeting date and time.
