Annual Membership Meeting

The annual OHECA Membership meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 10, 7 PM in Meeting Room 1 at Pohick Regional Library. Per OHECA bylaws, 2-year terms for President and Secretary and the annual budget must be voted on by dues-paying members. Voting will be done by those present or by online proxy form found here (must be submitted by 1200 pm, March 10). 

Candidates

Candidates for President and Secretary are Gary Koblitz and Susanne Dominick, respectively. Both are incumbents. Meet the candidates:

Gary has lived in Orange Hunt Estates with his family since 1987. He has been active in the West Springfield and OHECA communities during that time, including serving terms as OHECA VP and President.

Susanne has been an Orange Hunt Estates resident for 30 years. She, too, has been an active resident, including volunteering in the past with OHECA directory distribution and Neighborhood Watch. She has served on the OHECA Board as Secretary since 2023.

There are no other candidates as of this time. Write-in nominations may be made on the voting proxy, or nominations may be made from the floor at the meeting. 

2025 Budget

The proposed 2025 OHECA budget is included below for membership review prior to the meeting. Please note that in addition to the routine operating budget, there is once again a proposal to draw special capital projects funds from the association’s surplus to continue with upgrade of the Cherry Run Park parcel bordering Reservation Dr. This year, we would like to do more landscaping and install a message board for the benefit of residents who routinely enter and exit from the south end of the community. There remains a balance of money previously approved for median tree replacements on Huntsman Blvd and Sydenstricker Rd, so no additional funding needs to be approved to continue with that project this year.
