Hi Folks,

We are still moving servers and domains.  I'm in an accelerated IT certification program (actual college), so it's been taking up much of my time.  Hopefully, we'll get to it this weekend.

Once we move servers, we plan to introduce several new features, like a trouble ticket server (website support only for now), and additional communication features, like Facebook-style social media, video, etc. 

No HOA or community website that I have come across offers features like what we already offer, and intend to include down the line.  We are interactive, they are not. We focus on the community.  We are standing out.  Lets be a benchmark.

Depending on how you count them, this website now comprises between 90 and 130+ separate and distinct web pages.  All painstakingly hand-coded for aesthetics, legibility, and responsive scaling across devices, for a discerning Edgewood clientele.  If you have only seen a few of the pages, check for hypertext links in articles and forum posts; those often go to particular pages pertaining to the article with additional information.  Say that three times quickly.

We are now storing a substantial amount of media of various types, and I'd like to expand the multimedia functionality, streaming, and service hosting capabilities of the site, while experimenting with AI.  As such, I have some additional considerations with regards to the server array and configuration.  Full system backups are taking place with the intention to transition to the new domain property within a few days.

Down time should be minimal, but system backups can take hours.  We'll try to do most of the work overnight.

We have a new server on order.

Remember to check the Edgewood Weather Station for interactive weather maps and up to the date news and weather alerts! 

Find the Edgewood Weather Station at the bottom of the homepage.

We have registered ownership of edgewoodhoa.org for several years into the future.

We are beginning to transition the website.  During the process, we have disabled posting on chat for all users.  The current version of the chat feature will still be used for Admin updates and noteworthy news alerts.  If chat is again incorporated into the new website, it'll be completely different and much better.

Posting restrictions to the forum may follow shortly.  All forum topics and chat threads will always be available as read-only.  During this transitional period, however long that may be, I will still post updates and comments about "The Edgewood Voice" and local happenings regarding The Edgewood and Birdcage Neighborhoods, the City of Citrus Heights, and beyond.  The City Newsletters and Events Calendar will be maintained indefinitely. New features and special interest articles will continue to be added to the website.

We will continue to be a loud, bright beacon of information for prospective Citrus Heights homebuyers. This is an important role we will not shy away from, and it's the role in which we can be most effective. The website will always be a permanent archive of information about the history of this neighborhood and city. 

The Edgewood Homeowners Association Board has already led it's homeowners to the point where substantial special assessments will be required.  The association members were supposed to pay $4167 last year, which wouldn't have been anywhere near enough.  The eventual special assessments will be much larger (they are at ~12% reserves.  100% is ~$1.6M, and there are many years of deferred maintenance.)  It's not fair for an unsuspecting new homebuyer/young family to be assessed without any prior knowledge.  None of this is a new homebuyer's fault.

The values of Edgewood Association homes are low relative to other homes in the area.  They are among the cheapest in town, from what I can tell.  Those homes are priced like starter homes.  What a terrible first-time home buying experience the Edgewood Association would be.  We aim to inform.

As always, documented evidence is loaded on this website.  It starts here.

Recall Petition documents are always available here.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

For those interested in city affairs, we post the Citrus Heights City Council meeting agenda along with the previous regular city council meeting online stream on this page.

If anyone is interested, I have updated the Post Article about the Sunrise Mall Specific Plan with more information, streaming video, presentation slides, etc.
