PRESIDENT’S CORNER, Bob Blanton President The Club at WestPark

August 2020 Community Association

I’d like to start off by thanking Rob Ryerson for stepping up to the plate, and 3240 Kennerleigh Parkway,
participating in this year’s election. Regretfully, Rob had to withdraw in early July for Roseville, CA 95747
personal reasons, but was hoping that the resulting uncontested election would save www.theclubatwestparkca.com
the HOA any additional expense. Unfortunately, the new election rules established by Phone: (916) 771-7801
SB 323 require that the election proceed through the counting of the ballots. As a result, I’d like to Fax: (916) 771-7827
congratulate Pat Patterson and Dan Ketchum, who have been re-elected to the Board of Directors for www.theclubatwestparkca.com
another two-year term.

This will be my last contribution to the President’s Corner for a while. The Election of Officers, which
followed the Annual Meeting, produced the following results as Pat Patterson and I traded places: The Retreat Facility Hours

specifically tailored to reopen the pool should conditions positively change in the near future. Both plans
incorporate the requirements levied by the state, Placer County, and the HOA attorney’s Board of Directors
recommendations. The Board also included some recommendations offered by Members as well. Once Bob Blanton, President
our attorney assures us that the pool is both physically and fiscally safe to open, we will do so. So, we Pat Patterson, Vice President
