<p style="color: #222222; margin-bottom: 0px;">I&rsquo;m just writing with a neighborly request. <br />
<br />
While I&rsquo;m grateful for neighbors picking up their dog poop in bags while walking their dogs, and I&rsquo;m fine with them throwing the bags in my trash bin <strong>BEFORE</strong> garbage pickup, throwing dog poop bags into an <strong>EMPTY</strong> trash bin means it will sit in there for a week. &nbsp;It has happened at least three times. <br />
<br />
I'm grateful for the efforts to pick it up! &nbsp;Just not a fan of old poop sitting in the soon-to-be heat for a week.<br />
<br />
---------<br />
<br />
Also, several residents have contacted me about the buildup of dog poop <strong>NOT</strong> being picked up on roads throughout Paa-Ko. Please be considerate of your neighbors: &nbsp;bag your dogs' poop and take it home to put in your own trash bin.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Thanks!!</p>

<p style="color: #222222;"><strong>Attention Amenities Members: &nbsp;Amenities Access Check</strong></p>
<p style="color: #222222;">Please take a moment to confirm that your Amenities security card is still working.</p>
<p style="color: #222222;">We implemented a new security system a few months ago, and we&nbsp;<strong>know</strong>&nbsp;that some cards may no longer be active. These will need to be updated before pool season. Since the sales office is not open every day,&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">access may not be restored immediately if there&rsquo;s an issue</span>. To help avoid delays and a rush when the pool opens, we ask that you check your card in advance.</p>
<p style="color: #222222;"><strong>Test your card:</strong>&nbsp;Stop by the Amenities at any time and use your card to access the restrooms outside the pool. If your card works, no further action is needed.</p>
<p style="color: #222222;"><strong>If your card does not work:</strong>&nbsp;Please contact&nbsp;<strong><a href="mailto:paakoamenities@gmail.com" target="_blank" style="color: #1155cc;">paakoamenities@gmail.com</a></strong>&nbsp;with your name and the card number printed on the back. <br />
I can quickly get your access restored.</p>
<p style="color: #222222;"><strong>Prefer to stop by in person?</strong>&nbsp;Charlotte can also assist you in the office.</p>
<p style="color: #222222;">Thank you for helping us ensure a smooth start to pool season!</p>

</span><span style="color: #c00000;">Note from Michael Boice - President of PCSA Board of Directors (This is important and exciting!)</span></strong></span></p>
<p>As you may already know, last year we received funding from NMED to&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">begin the process of obtaining continued grant/loan funding for needed&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">repairs and upgrades to our fifteen (15) year old Wastewater Treatment&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">Plant and Sewage Collection System.</span></p>
<p>This included funding for the engineering firm of Molzen Corbin &amp; Assoc.&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">to produce a Preliminary Engineering Report to identify the projected&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">needs over the next ten to fifteen years.</span></p>
<p>The report was completed last fall which included direction to complete&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">paperwork required to submit our request to the legislature (through the&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">NM legislative capital outlay process) for the 2026 legislative session.</span></p>
<p>Last week we received the amazing news of not only one, but two award&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">notices: one from the State of New Mexico, and the second from NMED&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">(New Mexico Environmental Department), who funded the PER&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">(professional engineering report). The legislature awarded a Grant of&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">$461,000 and NMED/DFA offered a loan of $576,000 and a grant of&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">$144,000. The loan is at 1% for 20 years.</span></p>
<p>I am tremendously grateful for the effort made by our board members,&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">our consulting engineer, and especially our district legislative&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">representatives who all worked diligently and tirelessly toward this&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">momentous achievement for the Paa-Ko Sewer Association membership.</span></p>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 12 Apr 2026 10:20:00 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://paako.org/NewsEvents/TabId/238/ArtMID/879/ArticleID/3289/Great-News-from-Board-of-Directors-of-Paa-Ko-Communities-Sewer-Association.aspx</guid></item><item><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mary Clark]]></dc:creator><title><![CDATA[Special Meeting of the BOD of the Paa-Ko Sewer Association]]></title><link>http://paako.org/NewsEvents/TabId/238/ArtMID/879/ArticleID/3287/Special-Meeting-of-the-BOD-of-the-Paa-Ko-Sewer-Association.aspx</link><description><![CDATA[<p>A special meeting of the Board of Directors of the Paa-Ko Communities Sewer Association will be held on Tuesday, April 7th at 3:30 pm in the Paa-Ko Event Center.<br />

<span style="color: #080809;">The National Weather Service published a weather briefing this past Thursday that all of us need to be aware of and prepared for. This next week is going to be a turbulent set of days, maybe not every day, but certainly this could be a time we all need to be aquainted with and ready for.

</span></strong><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">It is with great sadness that I share the passing of Mr Bruce Franks. Bruce was the leader of this community from its inception for 20+ years, and the head of Mountain Ranch, our initial Developer. Bruce worked tirelessly to implement Roger Cox' vision for this wonderful spot in the East Mountains. He held positions of President and Treasurer for the Paa-Ko Communities HOA, Amenities, and Sewer Association. His dedication to this community is felt in every positive aspect of Paa-Ko. Please keep Bruce and his personal and extended families in your thoughts. He will be sorely missed, but remembered&nbsp;with a great fondness.</span><br />

"My husband Per Lysne and I recently bought 13 Kiva Loop (Lynn Buhaug&rsquo;s place), and we started work fixing the tile around the house but ran out of extra tile. One of our neighbors told us they don&rsquo;t make or sell this anymore. I was wondering if it is possible to send a request to the community to see if anyone has any of this tile sitting in their garage that they would be willing to part with.

Rattlesnakes and other snakes are out. &nbsp;This time of year, they are usually sunning themselves on a rock or along the edge of the pavement. As it warms up they will enjoy being under a rock or vegetation and sometimes happily wrapped around the cool base of a planter on your porch. &nbsp; Preferred hunting time is during the night (except for the coachwhip which likes the heat of the day). Keep your ears alert for rattles and always watch your step wherever you may be going. &nbsp;Coachwhip snakes also like to climb trees. Attached is a photo taken of a red coachwhip in a tree at the golf course several years ago. &nbsp;</span><strong><span style="color: #c00000;">Go to READ MORE and then to DOCUMENTS to see it.</span></strong><br />

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT &ndash; MIKE BOICE<br />

January 2025 Update PCSA<br />
<br />
<p>
As previously reported, we placed Molzen Corbin to produce a Preliminary Engineering&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">Review PER for the entire Paa-Ko Communities Sewer Association system. This was based&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">on a State Grant of $50,000 for the work. The bids were greater than the amount of the&nbsp;</span>grant and Molzen Corbin was at $111K. We decided we could afford the additional monies&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">and that this planning was badly needed so we put Molzen Corbin under contract last&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">November. We appointed our board member Scott Verhines to manage the project as he&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">has spent his entire career doing this kind of work. The project is going quite well, and we&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">expect completion sometime this summer.</span></p>
<p>Earlier this year we contacted the State to see if they might help with the additional money&nbsp;<span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">required. The State came back to us with an offer of an additional $9K as a grant and $60K&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: 13px;">as a 20-year loan for 1% annual interest. <br />

All Paa-Ko dog owners need to respect the fact that some breeds, dog sizes and loose dogs cause concern among some residents no matter how tame the animal is presumed to be by the owner, and that once in awhile, even the best trained dog can see a temptation too great to pass up. In any case, please be respectful not only of your neighbors in Paa-Ko, &nbsp;but also the Paa-Ko Covenants and the County Ordinance.</span></p>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 18 Aug 2024 09:29:00 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://paako.org/NewsEvents/TabId/238/ArtMID/879/ArticleID/3141/Dog-Bites.aspx</guid></item><item><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mary Clark]]></dc:creator><title><![CDATA[Another Appearance by a Regular Visitor on Canyon Ridge]]></title><link>http://paako.org/NewsEvents/TabId/238/ArtMID/879/ArticleID/3137/Another-Appearance-by-a-Regular-Visitor-on-Canyon-Ridge.aspx</link><description><![CDATA[<p>This good-size, very healthy looking (and cute) bear was &nbsp;seen on Canyon Ridge a couple days ago. &nbsp;Go to READ MORE and then to DOCUMENTS</p>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 11 Aug 2024 13:20:00 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://paako.org/NewsEvents/TabId/238/ArtMID/879/ArticleID/3137/Another-Appearance-by-a-Regular-Visitor-on-Canyon-Ridge.aspx</guid></item><item><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mary Clark]]></dc:creator><title><![CDATA[Paa-Ko Communities HOA Website]]></title><link>http://paako.org/NewsEvents/TabId/238/ArtMID/879/ArticleID/3131/Paa-Ko-Communities-HOA-Website.aspx</link><description><![CDATA[<p>Paa-Ko Communities has a new website up and running &nbsp; <br />
