Hello, WMA Homeowners,

We decided to provide the reasons for purchasing a WMA business laptop to keep community homeowners informed. The WMA is a legal business entity requiring equipment, supplies, communications, software, internet access, and applications to run it. These required actions are not free.

Using the WMA-procured laptop eliminates the need for boxes full of outdated paper trails of records to be stored and passed from one officer to the next new one, which has failed miserably. The old method of storage and passage ensured the loss of important documents. Modernizing the WMA business efforts and processes was essential and is now very effective.

For example, using MS Office Suite of applications (Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.) to produce official WMA letters and notifications, mailing labels, address lists, communications, forms, streetlight tracking lists, etc., and Adobe to produce newsletters. Accessing the internet is required for banking (New People’s Bank), EasyHOA accounting, financial reporting, website, communications with homeowners, use and upkeep, Facebook administration, communications with the community (Gmail and EasyHOA), holding annual and mid-year meetings for those who cannot attend in person (Zoom), and communication with businesses (CPA for Taxes, Legal Advice and Liens, Banking Transactions, Financial Investments, Bill Pay, Liability Insurance, WV Secretary of State, Contracts with Maintenance Crews, etc.) required to maintain the community. We use the WMA Amazon account to make necessary purchases. The WMA business requires digital document storage to archive and maintain business records for retrieval and historical purposes.

The WMA uses the WMA-purchased laptop to conduct its business. Most beneficial, when a current volunteer WMA President ends their tenure and a new one is voted into office, the transition is smooth due to all WMA business records, accounts, accesses, passwords, etc., being contained in one device – efficiency at its best.

Most importantly, some of the WMA business records contain the personal information of our homeowners and should not be stored on personal devices to protect the privacy of our neighbors. The WMA-procured laptop provides that separation and security.

Hello neighbors,

It's time for our Annual WMA Community meeting. We will vote for new officers, refresh information on past business, go over what we've accomplished last year, and changes made. We will present and explain community finances, vote on a mail and package delivery solution, and discuss current and future plans.

We hope you come and join us.
