Timberland At Lake Tahoe
WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY REVITILIZED OUR HOA!!!
First TAHO HOA MEETING
June 2023
​
Our new Board Members have their first meeting July 4th.
​
Our first HOA meeting in YEARS, is Saturday, July 1, 10am.
​
How wonderful it is that our Timberland Community has come together like this.
"TAHO's" HISTORY: My folks, Dean and Marilee Railton, and our neighbors next door, Don and Kay Allan formed "TAHO" 47-ish years ago - mainly as an excuse to line up multiple blenders for "Fizz Wizz's."

REASONS TO HAVE AN HOA
Reason #1: Timberland is NOT Vegas.
Reason #3: Coyote Awareness
Coyotes ...
​
*Are always close, watching to lure non-supervised pets.
​
*Originated in the deep south, Confederates at heart. You can hear their "rebel yell" at night/early mornings (sounds like a bunch of drunk high school kids)
*Coyotes stroll early mornings through Timberland with Tahoe House coffee and their favorite pastry.
*Mixes a wicked Margarita.
​
*Unprofessional note-takers of "Minutes" at Bear Meetings.
​
Reason #5: Bear Awareness
Some people
do not know bears are:
*Destructive yet darned adorable.
​
*Not potty-trained.
​
*Able to inadvertently turn ON stoves and start fires. Not kidding.
*They will greet you at the door with a shaken martini and dinner started.
​
*Capable of annihilating your car's interior if you don't lock your doors. Your insurance doesn't cover their mess.
***NOTE: Bears meet bi-monthly to exchange info on locations of accessible homes with the best snacks and peach pie.
FIZZ WHIZZ'S
*My Dad and Don Allan used to line up blenders and let 'r rip.
​
Hey, IF ANYONE REMEMBERS OR KNOWS THE RECIPE OF A FIZZ (Gin? Vodka? Ingredients???) PLEASE LET ME KNOW...
Reason #2: Timberland entrance is not for dumping
-
The south entrance (where the sign is/will be) is private property with right-of-way rights to Placer County. The north side of our entrance is owned by the State.
-
Dumping on either side violates Penal Code 374.3, Health and Safety Code 117555, and trespassing Penal Codes Sections 601/602.
Reason #4: Info on Tahoe Burn Ban...not "burning man," burn ban...
HOW TO KNOW IF IT IS A "RED FLAG" DAY...
​
Red Flag indicators are dry, low humidity, and high wind conditions.
​
When there is a Red Flag warning, these websites will say so.
IT'S OKAY TO HAVE...
​
A fire in your indoor fireplace as long as you have spark arresters.

I spoke with the North Tahoe Fire District because I needed clarification. They are super people ready to answer questions: 530-583-6911
NEIGHBORHOOD DUMPSTERS
*Memorial Day Dumpsters available for spring clean up
. . . and many more terrific reasons for an HOA.
