Your New CCHOA Website
- Details
- Created: 01 January 2013
In addition to our updated look, we're excited to announce the addition of several new features that many people have been asking for, including an interactive community forum and a community events calendar.
Many of the new features incorporated into the redesign meet the desire of the CCHOA Board of Directors to be more green. This includes the ability to publish and e-mail our semi-annual newsletter to our members, as well as moving to an online version of the Resident Directory. By moving to electronic formats, the Association saves paper and reduces costs by no longer having to mail hard copies to all homeowners.

The new website is divided into two sections - public and private. The public section is basically our community's front door and can be viewed by anyone who visits the site. The content in the public areas includes the Home Page, News/Weather/Traffic, the CCHOA Fact File, Telephone Numbers, Web Links and Contact Us. These areas will not only appeal to our homeowners but to residents who are leasing in our community, potential new homeowners, or anyone else looking for information about Cramer's Crossing.
To protect your privacy, we have gone to great lengths to remove references to specific individuals living in our community from the public areas of the website. This includes removing the names and contact information for Board and Committee members. This information is now secure and available to homeowners only.
The private section of the website can be accessed by clicking the Homeowner Login link in the upper right corner of the home page. Homeowners should have already received a letter from the CCHOA Board (via US Mail) with your initial login credentials: a primary user name and temporary password. Your primary user name is issued in the name of the first homeowner of record on the Franklin County Auditor's web site for each address. A second login can be requested. If you have not received your login credentials, or wish to add a second user, please contact webmaster@cramerscrossing.org. All requests will be verified before access will be granted.
Upon your first log-in, please change your password, however do not change your name, which displays on the site as last name, first name. Your user name for the site (which can't be edited), will be your first name.last name (example: john.smith). Should there be a problem with your assigned user name (wrong name, spelling error, etc.), please contact the webmaster.
The private area of the website will contain the names and contact information for the current and past CCHOA Board and Committee members, the community forum, the Resident Directory, Design Control information and forms, a document repository, newsletter archive, community event calendar and a photo gallery.
The new site also has a search feature, located in the upper right hand corner of the menu bar. Try typing in, "assessment" (as an example) and then click the magnifying glass. You will then see filtered results of articles on the website in which the word, "assessment" appears. When you are logged in as a homeowner, the search feature will search both the public and private areas of the website. When you are not logged in, only the public areas are searched.
