President’s Post
Dear Members,
As summer turns to fall, the Natomas Park Master Association (NPMA) Board and Commit-tee members are busy addressing Association issues. Highlights include Clubhouse expan-sion planning, enforcement procedure revision, water efficient landscape guideline develop-ment, 2015 budget development, and events.
On September 3, the Board approved the Water Efficient Landscaping application. Many thanks to the Archi-tectural Control Committee (ACC) for developing this detailed tool, which includes resources and a checklist that addresses plants, irrigation, hardscape, and maintenance.
Progress continues on the Clubhouse expansion proposal! The Board approved development of three Phase II construction options for homeowners to vote on.
The full Master Plan Advisory Committee (MPAC) proposal, with an estimated cost of $9 million (based that on a 2013 cost estimate).
A modified version of the MPAC proposal, with some high cost items removed from this Phase [e.g., HOA (management) office, photovoltaic shade structure, event room expansion]. The estimated cost is just under $6 million.
Repair of remaining construction defects only. Note that one of the ‘defects’ involved the Clubhouse facili-ty being undersized for our community of 3,940 homes.
The Association has approximately $2.8 million in cash available, upon member approval. The remainder can be financed, akin to the original Clubhouse construction.
Next steps include working with MPAC to ensure all necessary adjacencies and behind-the-scenes items are included in the modified version, developing and issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for an Architect/Engineering firm, scheduling, budgeting and working with the Communications Committee.
The Board is also requesting information from industry experts to deal with the defective pool deck surface. Options include tile and a cementitious overlay.
A recent energy audit included evaluation of lighting, water handling, HVAC (heating, ventilation and air condi-tioning), appliances, and photovoltaic and solar thermal (solar installations were not recommended at this time). After reviewing the report, the Board directed Association management to evaluate whether and how to implement each recommendation.
In Executive Session, the Board reviewed and approved a Board Code of Conduct Policy. This policy address-es attendance, commitment, honesty, respect, ethics, confidentiality, conflict of interest, and compliance with laws, regulations, and corporate policies.
At September Board Meetings, the Board discussed how to proceed with re-revising the Covenants, Condi-tions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and Bylaws. At ‘press time,’ no decisions were made. The most recent revi-sions were not approved during this summer’s document restatement elections. The goal is to revise and pro-duce documents that will comply with current statutes and be acceptable to the membership.
As always, you are invited and encouraged to attend open committee and Board Meetings. See page 12 for the October meeting schedule. Note that the Finance Committee and Board Meetings are one week later than usual due to scheduling issues. These meetings will take place the fourth and fifth Wednesdays of October at 6:30 pm.
The only closed meetings are those where confidential business is discussed. The ACC meets to review home improvement applications to ensure compliance with CC&Rs and other guidelines. Three Board members meet twice a month for CC&R violation hearings. The full Board meets in Executive Session once or twice a month to discuss contract, legal, personnel, and member discipline issues.
We hope you were able to attend summer and fall social events, as well as the fourth annual Green event on September 27 to drop off e-waste, batteries, and paper for secure shredding as well as to obtain water conser-vation and water efficient landscape guidance from Master Gardner Laura Santigian. See page one for Octo-ber and November events.

Walk to and from school in October as many
mes as possible, and track your trips to earn prizes ‐ it’s that easy! Walking to school can also include riding a bike, using a scooter, or ska ng. Look for the WALKTOBER info sheet and tracking form in your weekly folder at school. The num‐ber of mes you walk will deter‐mine what prizes you earn. Walk EVERY day for a chance at winning a grand prize.
For kids that live too far to walk from home, parents may drop them off 3 blocks away from school and have the kids walk the rest of the way. Dropping them off closer than 3 blocks is not counted as a walking day. Younger students are encouraged to walk with their par‐ents, friends or with adult supervi‐sion for safety. For more informa on about
Walktober or the Walk & Bike to
School program, visit NNTMA.org
or call 419‐9955.
Do you recognize this color? This is the Sherwin Williams 3025 Cari‐bou color. It is the official paint color for all of our yard fencing.
Many homeowners are in need of mending fences and repain ng those fences with a fresh coat of SW 3025 Caribou. This is all part of maintaining the appearance of your home and landscape. Please take the me to assess the state of your yard fencing and make those needed repairs before the heavy winds and rain are upon us (wishful thinking, I know). The ACC spends a significant amount of me evalua ng requests for improvements to proper es within the purview of NPMA. We would like to remind every resident in our community the importance
of maintaining what we all agreed to when we purchased our homes. Although we have allowed for brown lawns to be an accepted norm within the HOA (during the drought), we s ll must care for the dying lawns and other plant materi‐als. Weeds must be pulled and de‐bris removed from plan ng beds,
just as we did before these extreme drought condi ons. Addi onally, the ACC
is working with the
NPMA Board of Direc‐
tors in developing
“Water Efficient Land‐
scape” op ons for our
community. We cannot stress
enough that the success of such
changes are en rely dependent
upon each homeowner, who opts
for such a change, accep ng the
addi onal responsibility of this type
of landscape.

Trick or Treat!!! It’s that me of year and Halloween is just around the corner. Management would like to take the me to remind you of friendly ps to not only be cau ous of children trick or trea ng, but also to pro‐tect your homes. Here are some safety ps to consider when partaking in the
Halloween fun.
For those who wish to trick or treat, please make sure small children are ac‐companied by an adult and possibly trav‐el in groups. Carry a flashlight, glow s cks, or somekind of reflectors so you can be seen by motorists. If at all possi‐ble, walk on the sidewalk and not in the street. Walking in between vehicles, es‐pecially at night, can make it difficult for motorists to see you. Parents, discuss safety ps with your children and find a des na on for them to meet you for any reason you are separated. Before your children begin ea ng their candy, parents please make sure you check each piece for anything out of the ordinary.
For those having Halloween par es, we ask that you be courteous to the sur‐
rounding neighbors. No fy your sur‐rounding neighbors you are having a par‐ty and exchange numbers just in case the noise level becomes too loud. Ask your guest to be respec ul and courteous to your neighbors when parking on the street. Make sure driveways are not blocked and preferably, have them u lize your driveways if there is enough space. Lastly, friends do not let friends drink and drive. Make sure there’s a designated driver that can escort your guests home in case they are unable to do so them‐selves.
As a reminder, holiday decora ons need to be taken down immediately a er the holiday. When doing so, please make sure any candy wrappers, trash or any other debris is cleaned up either on, near or around your property.
Packages and Deliveries Now is the me people begin planning for the holiday fes vi es and begin holi‐day shopping. If you are expec ng a deliv‐ery at your home, you may want to con‐sider arranging someone to be home up‐on delivery, ask a neighbor to accept your
package, or arrange to pick it up. This will hopefully reduce the risk of your items being stolen or your home being vandal‐ized or broken into. If you see suspicious ac vi es or persons, you are encouraged to contact the Sacramento police then Paladin Security.
Protect your vehicles While the Associa on’s governing docu‐ments state that garages are to be used for the sole purpose of vehicle parking, you may also park vehicles on your drive‐way. When parking on the driveway, make sure all doors and windows are locked. Remove all items from plain sight to eliminate the possibility of having your vehicle broken into.

Holiday Season is Approaching. Are You Prepared?
A hive of bees is a perfect example of a community working together in harmony and for the common good of all its mem‐bers. A er all, a bee living alone can barely survive, let alone prosper. But in a hive made up of hundreds of other bees, each taking responsibility for the various jobs necessary for the survival of the community, the lone bee not only sur‐vives, it contributes migh ly to the suc‐cess of the hive.
The secret of the bee's success in living together in a close‐knit community is that each bee not only understands the interrela onships that exist between it and the rest of the members of its com‐munity, but is willing to accept some of the responsibility for the hive's prosperi‐ty by expanding their role in the commu‐nity whenever necessary.
As homeowners, we too can choose to recognize the interrela onships that exist
between ourselves and our neighbors and how those interrela onships have a direct impact on our quality of life. We can also choose to take some of the re‐sponsibility upon ourselves to contribute to improving those rela onships and in the process improve our community. In order for our community associa on to con nue to protect, preserve and en‐hance our community assets and our property values, each member of our community has to acknowledge their role in our community and, at mes, be will‐ing to expand their role to take on some added responsibility.
For example: We all must obey our gov‐erning documents, we agreed to do that when we closed escrow. By obeying community rules and regula ons, we contribute to our community and accept the role of a rule abiding member. Each year we conduct an Annual Mee ng at which me we elect our Board of Direc‐
tors, although we don't have to par ci‐pate in the elec on process, choosing to do so contributes to the success of our community. Our role as a rule abiding member expands to include that of a vo ng member. We also have the oppor‐tunity to a end our Board of Directors mee ngs in order to be er understand the business decisions made by the Board. When we choose to a end those mee ngs, our role as a rule abiding, vo ng member now expands to include that of a par cipa ng member. And when we choose to serve on community commi ees or the Board of Directors, we accept another role and become a rule abiding, vo ng, par cipa ng and contrib-u ng member.
So, let's all work at recognizing what roles we can choose to accept in our community and, like the bee, work to‐gether at making our community the best place to live that it can be!

An Update from Paladin by Corporal W. Kenealey
Safety Tips For Trick‐or‐Treaters We hope that everyone has a great me this Halloween. To help ensure a posi ve experience, we encourage reviewing these safety ps before you and/or your
children go out to par cipate in the fes vi es.
General Tips: Stay in your neighborhood or a neighborhood with which you are familiar
Carry a flashlight or glow s ck to light your path and increase visibility to motorists
Only stop at homes with their porch lights illuminated Never, for any reason, enter a stranger's house Ensure that your or your child's costume doesn't drag or otherwise pose a tripping hazard
Make sure that any swords, knives or other props are flexible
For Parents: Feed your children before going out, so they won't eat their candy before returning home
Accompany your children while they are trick‐or‐trea ng
Map out your route ahead of me to avoid ge ng lost Take something which will allow you to communicate with your children, should you be separated
S ck to well‐lit areas; the path less traveled, in this case, is ill advised
Check all candy for evidence of tampering, and discard any with damaged or open packaging
For Everyone: Please take extra care when driving through the com‐munity, children may run out into the street without stopping to look
If se ng out Jack‐O‐Lanterns, use LED lights or glow s cks instead of candles
As always, please report any suspicious ac vity to Pala‐din as soon as possible by calling our dispatch center
Bicycle The s From Open Garages In August, Paladin officers responded to mul ple reports of bicycles being stolen from open garages, in broad daylight. Please make sure to close your garage, vehicle, or home if you are leaving it una ended for even a brief length of me. The extra minute of me you take to close that door
can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars in lost prop‐erty.
Squa ers Found in a House on Eastbrook Way ‐ 08/07/2014 Paladin officers responded to a report of a subject found
inside an unoccupied, for‐sale house on Eastbrook Way. The subject was discovered by the realtor and fled the area as the Paladin officer arrived on scene. Paladin assisted the realtor with securing the house and forwarded all infor‐ma on to Sac PD.
Residen al Burglary on Dunlay Drive ‐ 08/08/2014 A Paladin officer discovered an open side gate at a resi‐dence on Dunlay, and found that the house had recently been burglarized. The Paladin officer contacted both the homeowner, who was on vaca on, and Sac PD. The Paladin officer kept the home secure un l inves gators arrived, and were subsequently able to find excellent forensic evidence to iden fy the burglars.
Stolen Bicycle Returned to Owner ‐ 08/12/2014 A Paladin officer found a bicycle le si ng on Burberry Way. A er canvassing the area, the Paladin officer was able to successfully locate the owner and return the bicycle to their possession. The bicycle had been stolen from the resi‐dent's garage.
