I would agree with the others who have commented on this email. I would send the letter and maybe note that some items are being updated. 
Do they participate, advise or comment on proposed changes? 
We believe it's important to keep in touch with these homeowners. 
They play an important role in the history of our communities.

    The HDC is thinking about sending out a letter to our property owners with just a minimal bit of information. Basically just a hello from the Commission, here’s where you can find information ( Town Website) and contact info should they need to touch base. Pretty vanilla.
    
    One of our members is reluctant to do this as our guidelines are what they consider a bit outdated ( updated guides are in the works) but nevertheless it’s what we go by.
    
    Does anyone have comment as to why sending out a letter of this sort is/could be detrimental?  BTW, there has not been any communication in many many years.
    
    Thank you,
