Harbor View Association
May 2026
Hello HVA Neighbors:
Welcome to the 2026 Season of Harbor View Association.
For those new to Harbor View, welcome! This is a true neighborhood with people helping people. After a long cold winter, it is so nice to see people out walking.
PLEASE drive slowly in Harbor View and on Shore Road. The cars share the roads with kids and “older” kids walking, dog walkers, bikes, scooters etc.
I would like to thank the BOD Members: Mellissa Wrinn, VP; Cheryl Smith, Treasurer; Christine Marotta, Secretary; Tracey Miller-Lamontagne, Member Liasson; Alan Curto, Dan Legg, Matthew Dow, Michael Ouelette, Jim Robertson, Dave Brouillette, Scott Neumann, Dave Sharkis, and Renee Allen.
Cheryl Smith has stepped up as Treasurer and has hit the ground running. Thanks Cheryl.
This will be my last year as president. Not sure how long I have been on the board or served as president, but we have accomplished a lot: new Jetty’s, beach restoration, Uncas Road speed reduction and stop signs, new signs for HVA. I could not have done this without the BOD. Thanks to our BOD and so many members for supporting me for so many years.
Someone asked me why I do this. It is because I love this community. It seems like a town of the past. With houses so close you can’t go outside without seeing someone. Say hi and take an interest, this is what community is all about.
We have started the upgrade of the beach fences and are waiting for the contractor to complete the project as of this letter writing. We added new fences on the North and South beach entrances that will hopefully keep the sand retained on the beaches.
A friend of Phil and Beth Biondi has donated a new picnic table. This is a memorial to Beth who graced this neighborhood for more than 10 years. She is missed and this beautiful table and plaque reminds us of her
The Clinton Transfer Station is open on Friday and Saturday 7:30 am until 3:00 PM. There is no cost to bring grass clippings, recyclables, metal, TV’s, batteries, and gas propane tanks.
The 4th of July parade is a blast, be sure to get this on the calendar, as well as the year-end party which is planned for Labor Day weekend. We will serve pizza, salad and cannoli! We also plan to have a great band for listening and dancing.
Denise who hosts “yoga on the beach” all summer has made a donation from her proceeds from last year to offset the cost of the year end party. Thank you so much Denise!
There are so many people to thank from the social committee… they do a great job of making HVA a special place to be! Thank you all who have chipped in to making our community a better place, we appreciate everything you do!
We have many new people, and escalating property values, but this remains a special place where you can make family memories that will last a lifetime. Please join us at one the meetings or at our many social events.

Stay safe and please, always show respect to your neighbors here in Harbor View.
