By Director Ashley Fondrevay, Court 14 I know that all of us at the Village Green have felt the trauma of the wildfire disaster here in Los Angeles. This was not the way any of us would have thought 2025 was going to start! But l wanted to highlight the love that many have shown towards our fellow Angelenos during this difficult time. In conversations with neighbors, I have learned of many selfless acts – from opening up their homes to displaced people, families and animals, to volunteering at pop up clothing and food drives, to donations of money and support, or just acknowledging the trauma of those experiencing the loss of everything with a kind word or a hug. In this time of need many of you have shown up in myriad ways and I just wanted to give a shout out to all of those who are helping out during a very challenging time. All gestures, both large and small, matter. I am humbled by how much our community cares, as I have directly experienced. So, to all Village Greeners, stay strong and keep up the amazing work!

Board president Laura Civiello opened the meeting with an announcement that the California State Senate Judiciary Committee is reviewing AB 2159, a measure that would allow HOAs to use electronic voting systems to elect board members and approve governing documents.
