What characteristics are needed?
Relevant experience or background-Skills in business, Human Resources, and/or financial management are especially helpful. Seeking a treasurer with accounting or financial management background. Willing to commit your time- Board meetings are the third Thursday of each month-evening hours. A board packet is sent the week before and should be reviewed prior to the meeting. Time sensitive issues occasionally occur between meetings. These matters are handled as they arise, primarily via email. Big picture orientation-Committed to the best interests of the association as a whole. Able to set individual interests aside. Calm judgement, integrity and a strong commitment to customer service.

The rules and regulations regarding parking of certain vehicles on the street or in the driveway has been updated to clarify when and how often exceptions can be made. The rule relates to: motor homes, tractors, trucks, (other than pickup trucks) commercial vehicles of any type, campers, motorized campers or trailers, boats or other water craft, boat trailers, ATVs, motorcycles, motorized bicycles, motorized go-carts and other transportation devices.
The following article relates to these specific vehicles, and not to automobiles and pickup trucks, (which is addressed in a different rule) nor does it apply to law enforcement vehicles.
Current Rule:
Parking of such vehicles is prohibited unless:
Addition to the Rule:
3. Approval will not be granted for more than 7 days during a six-month period.
Why this change is necessary:
In some circumstances members have parked vehicles frequently, informing the office after the fact. Or they have made frequent requests to park for short periods of time resulting in inconvenience to others, and negatively affecting the aesthetics in our community. Members have asked us to clarify the rule so that there is a clear limit on time allowed to park these vehicles.
An aesthetically pleasing neighborhood is important to member satisfaction, and to ensuring our property values remain high.
To request an exception, submit a Contact Us ticket, in advance, and wait for a response. If you have not received a response within 24 hours, or if this is an emergency request, please call the office at 601.898.1370.

Larger than 85% of Mississippi Cities
Our community has experienced a rapid rate of growth which translates to 2,187 properties. Since the average household contains 2.6 persons (2020 US Census) we can estimate that our community is comprised of about 5,686 individuals. That population is larger than 85% of Mississippi’s cities. To see if your Mississippi hometown is larger or smaller than Lake Caroline, click below:
Executive Director Position
The board has made a decision to hire an executive director to replace our outgoing business manager. We have the largest community in the area and we continue to experience rapid growth. This position best reflects the complexity of the senior management role and allows us to recruit an individual who can implement our strategic priorities and position us to maintain high property values and a quality lifestyle.
Ron Ohlmeyer will continue to serve as our Interim Business Manager until we hire an executive director. With Ron and the great staff we have, the transition should be seamless to our membership.
Executive Search Committee
The search team is comprised of Johnny Barlow, Michael Estess, Ron Ohlmeyer, and Rebecca Rives.
Candidates can apply by submitting a resume and cover letter.
If you’d like to recommend someone, please contact them, and if they are interested, ask them to apply. Or, if you prefer to reach out to a search committee member first, please do so.
