Dan Riggs presented a financial report.  No outstanding issues to be reviewed at this time. 

OLD BUSINESS:

The Board reviewed a proposal form BJ Landscape to enhance the entrance monument planter.  A proposal was approved by the Board, in the amount of $960, for several perennial to be planted at this time.  Additional work may be done on the planters and in the future more planting will be added, following the approval f the CC&R’s, allowing more funds into the association. 

NEW BUSINESS:

The Board discussed the date and times of holding a regular meeting.  The meetings will be held on the 4th Tuesday of every month.  They Board will alternate day meetings and night meetings.  They day meetings will be held at 10:00 a.m. at Tri-City.  The evening meetings will be held at 6:00 p.m..  The location for these meeting will be the Basha Library, if available.  If the library is not available, the Board will meet at Tri-City. 

Many homeowners were present and requested, with Board approval, the following:

·        That the revised CC&R’s be posted on the website for review and comment prior to mailing for approval

·        A list to be posted on the website of the Board/Management responsibilities. 

The following items were also discussed: 

·        Erin Woodruff (lot 1030) will be responsible for organizing a community block watch program. 

·        Deanna Fero (lot 1005) has sent a speed mitigation form to the Town so that they may review the association’s needs as to what will slow the speeders. 

·        Sidewalks:  the board will not be putting in sidewalks at this time.  This would take away much of the association’s trees and cut quite a bit into the homeowner’s front yards. 

·        Exterior walls: any homeowner wishing to raise their exterior wall must submit an architectural request to the Board.  However, the board will not approve this request if it is just one wall.  The perimeter wall must be raised along the entire street for the Board to consider it.  The homeowner must also check with the Town for approval.
