A Note About Site Ownership

Most of you know that I am a past officer of the Brookside of Middlebury Association.  I thought that a web site would be a great way to communicate with the homeowners for all matters related to the community.

A number of Brookside residents have told me that they thought this site was produced by Baker Residential. I'd like to let you know that the site was not produced by Baker Residential nor by the management company, but was instead sponsored totally by myself at my own expense for the benefit of the Brookside homeowners. The staff at Baker Residential and Concord Group are aware of the web site and are supportive of my efforts, however the site is independent of these companies and receives no money from them. It is my intention to pay the yearly costs (about $105 to a hosting company) and to supply all necessary programming. I plan to run the web site as a private newsletter and will wait for the community to mature before deciding on other possibilities.

Most of the information on the site was initially developed from information in the association documents and from my interactions in the community. Going forward, I am very interested in homeowners acting as reporters and news sources -- to provide a wide variety of information to our neighbors. Please feel free to visit me in person or email me at   If you ever spot information on this site that is inaccurate please bring it to my attention and I will correct it right away.

Important Note

This privately owned web site is not an official means of communicating association meeting notices to the community. Such notices must be delivered in a form specified by Sections 25 and 26 of the bylaws. The web site is intended to supplement the association legal notices and provide other helpful information.

The official documents of the association are the Public Offering Statement (Declaration), Bylaws, and Rules and Regulations that all homeowners received upon purchase of their unit. The legal procedures and stipulations are written there and homeowners should read those documents to understand their responsibilities. This web site can be considered a modern day "newsletter", but does not replace or supercede any of the legal documents.

At some future time the Association may choose to use some or all of this site as an official means of communication. Homeowners will be notified if this occurs and the wording used on this site will be changed to communicate the official status.
