Enter For Chance to Win
4th of July Camp Site Reservation

Registration Period: Friday, May 10 – Friday, May 24
Online Lottery: Friday, May 31

Located just a few yards away from where the fireworks are launched, Happy Camp is one of the most popular spots for viewing Canyon Lake's impressive fireworks show. Due to its popularity, we hold a lottery to give members an equal opportunity to win a campsite reservation for the holiday. This year's lottery will be online on Friday, May 31. Registration opens tomorrow, May 10, at 9 a.m. and is open through Friday, May 24. Enter for a chance to win!

Lottery Guidelines

- Only 1 submission per tract-lot will be accepted in the lottery
- Must be a "member in good standing"
- Per the Canyon Lake POA's Rules (Campground 5.2), only Prime, Co-Owners, Associate, or Property Manager member types may register for the lottery.

Site Selections & Requirements

There is a 3-day site minimum required if you win a site. Site winners will be selected through an online lottery system taking place on Friday, May 31. Starting Saturday, June 1, site winners will be called in the order they were selected in the lottery to select their site. To ensure a smooth, efficient, and fair process, site winners are asked not to attempt to make their reservation in person at the campground. Winners will be contacted via phone only. Site winners who do not return their calls before Monday, June 24, will forfeit their site and waitlist winners will be contacted.

Site winners may cancel their reservation with the campground up until Monday, June 24. After June 24, sites may not be canceled, and site winners who do not show up for their reservation will be charged the 3-day minimum holiday rate.

2024 Board Candidates

Two of the five seats on the Canyon Lake POA Board of Directors are up for election in May 2024. The two-year terms of Bill Van Vleet and Greg Doherty are ending. The governing documents allow Directors to serve a total of two consecutive terms. This year, the only candidates on the ballet are the two incumbents:

1. Greg Doherty
2. Bill Van Vleet

Each candidate's resume of qualifications and goals are posted online at www.clpoa.com/election.

Ballot Measure to Amend Bylaws
Add Bylaw Restriction to
Future Sales of Common Areas

A majority vote to approve this measure at a meeting where a quorum is met would result in the Board being unable to sell common areas without the approval of the Canyon Lake owners. If approved, future common area sales would require a quorum and majority vote in favor at a meeting or election conducted in accordance with California law and Canyon Lake POA governing documents.

Ballot Measure to Amend Bylaws
Board Terms

Efficient operations are significantly hindered by annual changes in the Board. This measure was placed on the ballot as an option to address this issue and add stability to the Canyon Lake POA’s governance. If approved, this Bylaw amendment would establish 4-year terms with a 2-year waiting period for Board members beginning with the 2025 Annual Meeting & Election of Directors. Once aligned, subsequent elections would then occur every two years — fortifying governance tenure, establishing stability within the Canyon Lake POA organization, lessening the presence of election signs, and reducing costs by 50%. The community would only see and experience election campaigning during election years, reducing the visibility of Canyon Lake POA election signs and the frequency of election disruptions by half.

Ballot Measure
IRS Revenue Rule 70-604

The IRS Revenue Tax Ruling 70-604 allows associations to avoid a tax consequence on any inadvertent excess member income that is applied to the following Fiscal Year (FY) assessment when filing a tax return Federal Form 1120. This IRS Ballot Measure is considered an annual industry standard to allow for clear tax filing authorization should the Board decide to apply excess income to the following year’s assessment.

Tennis Area Shade Project

Progress continues at the tennis courts, with the contractor grading, pouring wall footings, and installing the retaining wall block. For your safety, we kindly ask that you avoid the construction site. While the courts remain accessible, please be aware that lights on courts 3, 4, 5, and 6 may be temporarily unavailable during certain phases of the project.

Upon completion of the project, two new shade structure pavilions will be unveiled. One pavilion will feature a built-in barbecue at one end, accompanied by six picnic tables beneath the shade canopy, creating an ideal setting for outdoor gatherings. The second pavilion will replace the existing aging structure, offering extended coverage and additional viewing bleachers for tennis matches. Additionally, the project includes the installation of a new ADA ramp, ensuring accessibility for all community members. With an anticipated completion date in early summer, these enhancements will provide improved amenities for residents.

Year 1 Seal Coating Schedule

Please be advised that several of the streets from Year 1 of the Pavement Improvement Project will be seal-coated beginning Thursday, May 2, through Friday, May 17. Seal coating protects and extends the life of asphalt pavements by applying a protective sealant that helps to prevent oxidation, weather damage, and wear from traffic.

Affected streets will be closed from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on their designated days, with temporary street closure and no parking signs posted in the work area 48 hours before work begins. Do not drive or walk on the surface until the barricades are removed, or you may damage the coating of your vehicle. Cost to clean up or reapply slurry will be the homeowner's responsibility.

Temporary street closed/no parking signs will be posted in the work area 48 hours before work begins.

Davis Stirling Act

The Davis Stirling Act, which governs all homeowner associations, requires that the Canyon Lake POA maintain a reserve study and healthy reserve funds. The Canyon Lake POA's boards have done a great job of this in recent years, and the money for many of these projects is already in the bank. The Davis Stirling Act also requires the Canyon Lake POA to maintain all of the common area amenities. This is one of the Canyon Lake POA's primary obligations. All of this helps maintain healthy property values here in Canyon Lake and helps modernize our 55-year-old community.
