Announcement to Collington Residents 10/01/2025
Ballot Collection Practice and Next Steps
Dear Collington neighbors, The board is issuing this statement to clarify recent discussion about ballot collection and to outline immediate steps the board will take.
Current practice: Ballot collection, as that term is defined in Virginia law, has been an accepted practice used by residents in our community for every past HOA election.
Governing documents: Collington’s bylaws and existing HOA policies do not prohibit ballot collection.
Transparency and review: The board will review this practice promptly and will propose a clear, written policy on ballot handling to remove ambiguity and ensure consistent, transparent procedures for future elections.
How to raise concerns: Residents with specific evidence of misconduct or procedural violations must submit it in writing to [email protected] so the board can investigate formally and respond.
Social media and community dialogue: Residents should rely on official board communications for factual information about HOA processes. Public posts that repeat unverified claims confuse and undermine community trust.
Commitment: The board is committed to fair, transparent elections and to adopting clear guidance where needed so residents can expect consistency and procedural integrity going forward.
Collington HOA Board
Connie LaRocca
My name is Connie LaRocca, and I’m excited to share that I’m running for a position on the Collington HOA Board of Directors!
My husband and I moved to Ashville section in February 2024 from Syracuse, NY, where I’ve worked at Syracuse University since 1999.
In my current position as an Identity & Access Management (IAM) Security Analyst, I help staff and students securely access university systems. In my previous roles, I supported applicants and families through the admissions and financial aid process—work that taught me the importance of clear communication, empathy, and problem-solving.
My husband and I have two sons and a daughter who were active in hockey, crew, and gymnastics throughout their school years. I was always involved—volunteering as a team manager and participating in the PTO. Community involvement has always been important to me, and I’ve carried that spirit with me to Collington.
Since moving here, I’ve attended Board meetings, joined the monthly bunco group, and you’ll often see me running along Collington Drive in the mornings. I love being part of this vibrant neighborhood and want to help ensure it continues to thrive.
I’m running for the Board because I believe in representing all homeowners with
honesty, integrity, and fairness. I’m a good listener, and I’m committed to working
collaboratively to find solutions that benefit our entire community. Whether it’s improving communication, addressing concerns, or supporting neighborhood initiatives, I’m here to serve. I would be truly honored to earn your vote in the upcoming election. Please feel free to reach out if you have questions, ideas, or just want to chat—I’d love to hear from you!
