Hawthorne 2 HOA Covenant Changes - Need Homeowners' Vote by April 25, 2025

The Hawthorne 2 HOA Board of Directors is requesting your 'Yes' or 'No' vote for proposed content to our covenants designed to better manage the renting of homes.  Over the last year multiple residents have approached the board with a concern about a property within our HOA being used as a short-term rental. We also heard from our city council ward representative about local issues with group homes residing within neighborhoods. The board researched and shared a preliminary proposal at the annual meeting in November where we received additional feedback that has been incorporated into the final version now being routed to all HOA members for a vote.  The changes are intended to help protect our homeowner's security and property values.

Two documents have been included to inform you of the proposal. There is a summary document called 'Things to Know' and the second is a snapshot of the actual content that will be inserted into the covenants. Click on the links below to view PDFs of both documents:

Please vote by April 25, 2025. You can vote 'Yes' or 'No' by:

If you have any questions, you are welcome to contact an H2HOA board member: Don Read, Jeff Biggs, Mark Clauss, Cherilyn Sytar, or Toni Wudtke
