Posted on Mar 29th, 2025 Comments (0)
Bathroom and Gym: The Board authorized an architect to create a full set of working drawings that will be complete enough to file for permits from the City of White Plains. These drawings have been completed and used to obtain three detailed estimates from reputable contractors in the area. A contractor will be selected and the plans will be presented to the community with cost estimates for discussions and modifications and then a final vote.
New Gym Equipment: In the meantime, a new treadmill and a new elliptical have been installed in the current gym space and are available for use. Please note that the elliptical needs to be pedaled in order for the power and the screen to turn on.
Card Room: The small room in the Clubhouse is in the process of being changed into a functioning card room. There are at least 6 times during the month when people use the Clubhouse for that type of recreation. Sara Feinstein and Joan Marks are overseeing the renovation work and purchasing new furniture. HOA board approved $24,000 for this renovation at their February meeting.

Increased Assessment to Cobblefield Reserve Fund for New Buyers Who Close after 12/31/24

At the September, 2024 board meeting, the board voted to charge an assessment of $7,500 to all home buyers who close after December 31,2024. This assessment will also apply if a home is sold privately or a title is transferred within a family. In all cases, the new owner is responsible for paying the $7,500 to the reserve fund through our managing agent at closing. All real estate agents are familiar with this type of buyer contribution in Westchester communities.
The board feels that since the new owners will derive the benefits of the future projects these funds will deliver, this is the best approach to raise additional capital.
