			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve had a problem with vandals breaking the landscape lighting at the Locust Grove entrance. Last year the lights were being smashed so we replaced them with high-quality housings that would be much more resistant to abuse. As you can see from the pictures below, the vandals used huge rocks to break the lights on two separate occasions within the last month. Glass was scattered all over the road and grassy areas.</p>
<p>This vandalism is costing <em>you</em> money! Please be on the lookout for any suspicious behavior and ask your kids if they&#8217;ve heard of anyone talking about this.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Woodbridge Homeowner,</p>
<p>Your Woodbridge Board of Directors has made a decision to change its management company in order to better meet the service and financial needs of the Association.  We have selected Advantage Idaho which is headquartered in Garden City.  The official change date is March 1.  We remain on good terms with our previous management company and we will all work to have a seamless transfer of records and responsibilities.</p>
<p>The Search Committee and Board went through an extensive process to select a new management company, including interviews and contacting references.   We selected Advantage Idaho for several reasons, but particularly because of their long history with many other satisfied associations in the Treasure Valley.  Many of Advantage Idaho’s other clients have communities and amenities very similar to those in Woodbridge.</p>
<p>Working with your Board of Directors and committees, Advantage will be providing a variety of services, including financial, administrative, compliance with covenants, site management and communications.  Communications will include newsletters as well as day-to-day phone calls, e-mails, responses and other matters associated directly with Woodbridge residents.</p>
<p>Beginning March 1 Advantage Idaho will be your first place to call if you have a question about your assessments, a response to an infraction letter, a message or question about the subdivision, or any other related items.  You may reach all Advantage Idaho staff at <strong>323-1080.</strong></p>
<p>Your permanently assigned Association Manager will be <strong>Amanda Al-Shawaf</strong> who can be contacted at <a href="mailto:amanda@advantage-idaho.com">amanda@advantage-idaho.com</a>.  Billing questions should go to <strong>Rusti Joiner</strong> at <a href="mailto:rusti@advantage-idaho.com">rusti@advantage-idaho.com</a>.  You may contact Advantage Idaho’s owner, Carla Everhart, with any urgent concerns.</p>
<p>Your Board of Directors will continue to be very much involved and will make all policy and budgeting decisions.</p>
<p>We encourage you to sign up for the Woodbridge email list. If you have not received email from the Woodbridge HOA before, we encourage you to visit the Woodbridge website and click the “Sign Up” link so we can send you important information.</p>
<p>Please be patient as the Advantage Idaho staff gets to know our subdivision and the matters that concern you most.</p>

When one of these breaks it can be a couple of hours before the Nampa/Meridian Irrigation District can come shut the water off at the main pump house.
