Minutes from the 2008 HOA Meeting
Michelle made a motion to accept the minutes of the
2008 meeting. Carter seconded the motion and they were adopted by unanimous
vote.
Financial Report
Adriane covered the 2009 financial report. There were
inquiries about the fees charged by Colonial Bank but Adriane indicated that
they still offer the most economical and efficient system for our type of account.
Colonial also has CD's totaling about 75K and their rate is competitive.
Landscape Committee Report
Improvements are underway by Proscape and ways to improve
the entry way are being considered. Since we are constantly attempting to keep
our water bill under control, it was suggested that owners water on their own
as much as possible. Hot tub planting is unfinished due to a leaky water line
but a landscape plan has been adopted and will be completed as soon as the situation
is remedied.
Trash is a constant problem. Owners are urged to pick up loose debris since
much of it comes in from surrounding areas.
There was a discussion concerning the creek area between us and Reflections
l. We do not own this land but there is an abundance of poison ivy and wild
vines growing there. No decision was reached on how to handle since we have
no rights on the property.
Other suggestions were to clean gutters regularly, install a new property
map at the mail box, and have unit numbers painted on the curb in front of
each unit.
Pet droppings are a problem, especially in open area. Every owner is responsible
for cleaning up after their pet and to keep their animal on a leash. All pet
owners should be aware of the danger that coyotes present at this time of
year. There have been pet deaths attributed to these predators in past years.
Yard Sale
Michelle mentioned the annual yard sale that comes up
this coming weekend. The more participants the higher the traffic will be.
Board Election
Carter Rowles was elected to serve a three year term.
Other candidates were Victor Zertuche and Penny Corden.
Property Inspection and Maintenance
Annual unit inspection is underway and a couple of
problems mentioned were raggedy screens and sheets on the windows. Owners will
be notified as the problems are identified.
Seal coating and marking of parking area will begin
this month.
Meeting Adjournment
Carter motioned to adjourn the meeting at 8:02 and
Helen seconded the motion.
Special Roof Assessment Meeting
Held immediately after the annual meeting to discuss
a special assessment to replace the roof. Discussion was held covering many
facets of this complex project. Owners approved the assessment in person and
by proxy in the amount of $66,000 which was the same amount approved last year.
This money along with the assessment from 2009 will be used for this and a expert
is being utilized to help us get the most for our money. Carol Biedrzycki, along
with board members, are going to learn more about contractors and their materials
to help select the best one for our complex. Current bids between $240K and
$290K have been received.
Respectfully submitted:
Swayne McCauley
Secretary
