TUESDAY; FEBRUARY 17, 2026; 7:00 PM; VIRTUAL.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong>The monthly board meeting will be conducted via the RingCentral virtual meeting framework.&nbsp; For the virtual meeting information, see the website under \u2018Meetings\u2019, select the year (2026), then the meeting (2026-02-17).&nbsp; Document #01-1 contains the information to join the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2<\/strong><strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>YARD DEBRIS COLLECTION, RESUMES MARCH 11, 2026.<\/strong>&nbsp; Yard Debris collection will resume on March 11, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. &nbsp;<\/strong><strong>PARK WEST PAGES, FEBRUARY 2026 EDITION.&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;The updated current edition of the Park West Pages is available \u2013 please see the website for the document.&nbsp; The updated copy has one additional page focused on the upcoming pool season.&nbsp; The Hospitality Committee has hard copies of the edition if you\u2019d like a printed copy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4.&nbsp; PARKING.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong>Thought I&#8217;d deliver this information again based on the last weather event we are emerging from.&nbsp; 1 &#8211; When parking in any curb-side parking have both your front and rear wheels on the concrete gutter.&nbsp; 2 &#8211; Do not park in any yellow painted curbs at any time.&nbsp; 3 &#8211; Do not park in any white-painted curbs during snow emergencies.&nbsp; 4 &#8211; Do not park in any posted and taped spaces or curb parking during the times indicated on the signs.&nbsp; 5 &#8211; The entire community (assigned and unassigned spaces) is permit parking only &#8211; have a permit in your vehicle or risk the vehicle being towed.&nbsp; 6 &#8211; If you are parked in any visitor space or at any curb-side parking, remember to move your vehicle every week, after ten days your vehicle is subject to towing.&nbsp; 7 &#8211; No parking or storage of any vehicles (e.g. trailers, motorcycles) on common areas, &nbsp;If you have questions or need more information, please review the Community Rules on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. &nbsp;SPEEDING.<\/strong>&nbsp; The speed limit in our community is 15 miles per hour. &nbsp;Stop signs are at intersections for a reason. &nbsp;Speed bumps are there to try to remind you to stay at or under the limit. &nbsp;Fairfax County police have the authority to enforce traffic and motor vehicle laws on our private streets and are in the community on a regular basis. &nbsp;There are many children and walkers in the neighborhood &#8211; follow the traffic rules, you really won&#8217;t save much time by blowing through stop signs or speeding on our streets &#8211; the potential cost to you and to whom you may hit far outweigh those seconds&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6<\/strong><strong>.&nbsp; COMMUNITY SECURITY. &nbsp;<\/strong>If out-of-the-ordinary events occur and you are concerned for your safety or security please notify the Police non-emergency number (703) 691-2131 to report the occurrence. &nbsp;While we advertise a Neighborhood Watch on our signs there has been a lack of interest in the past to actually set one up. &nbsp;If you are interested in participating please let me know. &nbsp;If we have sufficient interest we will restart the process with the County but not before we see sufficient volunteers to make the effort worthwhile. &nbsp;As always, please consider leaving your porch lights on throughout the night, remember to lock your vehicle doors, and notify the non-emergency number should you experience some kind of security event in the future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7. &nbsp;OWNER ACCOUNT PORTAL.&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;This is a recurring topic for many of our owners.&nbsp; Each owner has the ability to access their account through a portal Summit Management offers. &nbsp;To access the portal, please go to our website and select the \u2018Living in PWCA\u2019 tab. &nbsp;Scroll down the page to the button \u2018Vantaca Owner Login\u2019. &nbsp;If you have not already done so, Vantaca will prompt you to create a login. &nbsp;Once you login you\u2019ll be able to access your owner information to include the status of your account. &nbsp;This also provides an avenue to pay any balances due on the account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>8. &nbsp;OPEN DIRECTOR POSITION.<\/strong>&nbsp;
