The meeting was called to order at 7:10 PM by the President, Karen Purvis. Attendees were board members Karen Purvis, Sharon Cook, Leon Leonard, Dan Vessels, and Maureen Walsh. D&D Chair Bob Cook arrived at 7:40 PM.
Secretary’s Report. The minutes of the March 10 meeting were approved as revised. Karen requested that the minutes of the March meeting be posted on the website. The minutes of this meeting should be posted on the website after being reviewed by board members this week.
Treasurers Report. Income included dues payments. The only expenses were for landscape maintenance. Financial statements are available for homeowners to review upon request.
Annual Meeting Notice. Attorney Kelly DeLaat-Maher prepared a formal draft of amendments to the CC&R. Copies were provided to each Board member prior to the meeting. A draft of the notice to the annual meeting, nomination form, and proxy form were prepared by Karen and provided to the Board for review. Several revisions to the letter were suggested by Board members. The Board discussed the likely cost of installing a sprinkler system and maintaining the properties in the neighborhood if the CC&R revisions are not made. The estimated increase in dues for each property would be $180 per month for maintaining the landscaping, watering and sprinkler system maintenance plus at least $5000 to install a sprinkler system in each property and hook to a common water supply. This estimate will be included in the letter.
Revisions were also made to the Board nominating form and the proxy form. The letter, the Board nominating form, the proxy form, and the proposed changes to the CC&Rs will be sent to each homeowner on April 18.
Eighty percent of the homeowners must approve any change to the CC&Rs, so this would be 46 homeowners. Each of the changes to the CC&Rs will be voted separately. Each of the current Board members was assigned lots from which to obtain proxy forms, if the owner was not planning on attending in person. The assignments were:
Dan Lots 23 to 30
Leon Lots 49 to 57
Maureen Lots 19-22 and 45-48
Karen Lots 31 to 38
Sue Lots 15 to 18 and 41 to 44
Sharon/ Bob Lots 1 to 14 and 39 to 40
Maureen will provide contact information for any lots that are rentals.
