Greetings Fellow Tokyo Mansions Homeowners;

I hope this Newsletter finds you and your family in the very best of health and doing well.

The first few months of our undertaking have been very challenging and yet fulfilling. With the help from our fellow Board of Directors, officers, homeowners and staff we continue to overcome the hurdles bestowed upon us.

Our community’s progresses were hindered with the undesirable past events which led us to the current situation and will now ultimately require every member’s commitment and involvement to move forward in the right direction as one.

I ask each of you to consider sharing your responsibility, as a valued member of this community, to be involved as it is a very important step of strengthening our Homeowner’s Association by making sure you are current on your HOA membership dues, accepting a role in one of our committees, and most importantly, actively participating in reaching our ever-needed “Quorun” requirements as it is essential for us to making decisions as a whole for our community’s sake, our seamless progress, and the right way to move forward.

As we continue in preparation for our Homeowner’s Association achievement of missions and objective. I look forward to continue working with the rest of the Board of Directors, the Committees and each one of you with a stated goal of listening and sharing each other’s objectives, while improving the level of services to all our members, and enhancing our community association mandated of us.

I appeal for your continuous patience, and in due time we hope to attain what every one of us desires – a world class community where everyone lives in harmony, achieving better quality of life and enhancing property values.

Thank you to my fellow board of directors and officers who tirelessly collaborated in creating policies to enhance processes, and who selflessly devoted their time and effort to explore and achieve our goals; to the previous board who rendered their services to ensure that HOA operations continue seamlessly; and to all individuals who joined with other members in helping us in all our endeavor, you know who you are.
