The January 2012 newsletter begins with an announcement about the Sandia Heights Coffeehouse Concert featuring Syd Masters & the Swing Riders. The event will showcase western music, with the trio's unique blend of vintage cowboy trail songs, western swing, and original pieces. The newsletter also includes important reminders and information such as dispelling myths about SHHA services, clarifying emergency procedures when calling 911 from a cell phone in Sandia Heights, and the need for ACC approval for exterior house changes, even for non-members. Additionally, an increase in SHHA membership dues from $8.00 to $10.00 per month, effective March 1, 2012, is announced to cover rising costs while continuing to provide valuable services and benefits.

The newsletter discusses the possibility of receiving the GRIT electronically to reduce mailing and printing costs, while enhancing the content with color, internet links, and potential video and PowerPoint presentations for SH homeowners. The electronic version of the GRIT is higher resolution than the printed version and can still be printed by recipients if desired. Additionally, Tram passes are available to homeowners, with details provided by contacting the office. SHHA membership cards and benefits are explained, offering various advantages and discounts with local merchants through the SHHA Merchant Benefits Program. The ACC section lists approved projects and the upcoming disposal of large format plans, along with changes to the ACC application process requiring a hard copy and a digital format.
