The meeting was called to order at 7:10pm by President Leon Leonard. Attendees were board members Dan Vessels Jr., Maureen Walsh, Sharon Cook, Karen Purvis, Sue Harvey, and Grounds Committee Chair Bob Cook.

Secretary Report – Minutes of the November 10,2014 HOA Board Meeting were approved as written. There was no meeting in January.

Treasurer Report – Income since November board meeting included dues payments and interest. Expenses were landscape maintenance, HOA  insurance for 1 year, postage, and December final water bill. Discussed water leak at front entrance.  It was decided that if needed when we turn on the water this year for the summer, if leak persists, funds for repairs will be allocated from the reserve account.

D&D Committee – Shawn communicated one issue to Leon. One homeowner advised that a window box had rotted due to water damage. Shawn advised that no variance was needed as he was simply repairing an existing structure on his home. Item was discussed and approved.

Grounds Committee – Discussed continuing violations. Appropriate action will be taken. Discussion was also had about field turf for common areas versus yearly water bill.  Maureen will check with our landscape company as to the costs. Discussion was also had about common area in alley where kids play in the summer and all the activity in and around there. Discussed whether to fence common area to make it safer for both kids and cars driving in alley. Sharon and Karen will obtain quotes for a chain link fence.

New Business – Maureen will contact our landscape company to have trees sprayed along 7th this spring, since it was last done in 2013.
