SECRETARY: Sue Harvey
Due to the recent sale of her home, Sue has resigned her position. Vice President Karen Purvis will take the minutes for the meeting.
TREASURER: Maureen Walsh
Maureen summarized finances for this past year and provided spreadsheets for the actual 2017 budget, as well as the 2018 expected budget.  Income received for the first quarter of 2018 were from dues payments. Expenses were for landscape maintenance and costs associated for our annual meeting preparation. Future expenses will be for any water leaks and/or replacement of irrigation lines when our water is turned on for the summer. If you see a leak in the irrigation system, please email Maureen at mkw23477@msn.com.  She will get back to you. Maureen will also be transferring funds from our checking account into our reserve account.
DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT :  Bob Cook
No report at this time.
GROUNDS:  Bob Cook
Bob summarized the responsibilities and differences of both committees. The walk around for the first quarter has not been completed. Further discussion of procedures and timelines will be done at the next board meeting in May.
FINANCE : Don Kelley
Don led a discussion of the ongoing need for our HOA Board and Committee Volunteers.  We discussed whether to keep our board “in house” or to turn it over to a management company.  After discussion about what is expected from a management company vs our community keeping our HOA, it was unanimously voted on to keep our HOA Board in our community.  Our dues have remained the same since 2001. We discussed the need to raise our dues to meet our ongoing expenditures, as well as keeping our reserve fund funded to encompass our 5-10 year plan. Further discussion will be at our board meeting in May.
COMMITTEES: Karen Purvis
Karen passed around the Committee sign up sheets for various committees for the 2018-2019 calendar year. A big thank-you to those of you that have volunteered. Below are the volunteers for our committees:
                      Finance – Don Kelley, Sharon Cook, Ulyana Heward, Kevin Thompson, Todd Stone and  Micah
                      D & D – Bob Cook
                      Grounds – Bob Cook, Dan Vessels, Kevin Thompson, Ulyana Heward and Karen Purvis
                      Special Project – No one signed up
                      Welcome/ Sunshine – Shawn Thompson
Old Business:
Sharon identified projects that have been completed this past year.  Two pet waste stations installed in both the  front and back common area-thanks Bob Cook.  Three picnic tables installed in our front common area-thanks Eric Daniels for ordering/installing them. Plants, shrubs were either thinned, removed or transplanted.  Sunshine Landscape put down the beauty bark. Special Projects committee- thanks Brittany Vessels for community garage sale, annual BBQ, and Halloween festivities.
Outstanding Issues:
Parking – continues to be an ongoing issue, as space is shared and is limited.   Our perimeter homes have parking for four cars. Some, but not all, homes on our interior have parking for two cars.  Please remember that our city street is shared parking.  Please park in front of your home if possible, and facing the correct way.
Next meeting will be on Wednesday, May 23, 7pm, at the home of Karen Purvis.  510 28th Ave SE.  Everyone is welcome to attend.
Meeting adjourned at 8:50pm

HOA Meeting Minutes (June 2017)

Estates of Bradley Park
Minutes of the HOA meeting
June 5, 2017

Present: Sue Harvey, Maureen Walsh, Sharon Cook, Karen Purvis, Carol Sorensen,
Don Kelley, Bob Cook.

The meeting was called to order by President, Sharon Cook, at 7:05pm.
1. Secretary’s Report: Secretary, Sue Harvey, reported she had not typed up the
minutes of the last meeting, but she would submit them to the board the next day with
the draft of the June 5 minutes.

2. Treasurer’s report: Maureen Walsh, Treasurer, reported that as of May 17, expenses
included landscape maintenance and the Corp biling fee to the Secretary of State.
Income was received from several homeowners for dues.

3. Maureen reported on her talk with the owner of Blue Sky Landscaping, regarding the
new landscaping to be done in the front common area. He said he has not ordered
the picnic tables yet, but will do it soon. The board members looked at the diagram he
submitted for the restructuring of the landscape around the picnic tables and
approved it.

4. Sharon led a discussion of our on-going problem getting any other homeowners to
take part in the management of the development. No one wants to serve and the
current board members are burned out. Several possible soluti ons were
suggested,including turning the management of the development over to a
management service. We would still need board members, but the
management company would take over making sure homeowners kept up
their property in accordance with the CC&R’s, and would collect dues and levy
whatever fines were called for. Homeowner’s dues would go way up and would
probably be increased by 10% every year. After a lengthy discussion, it was decided
to send a letter to all homeowners and explain that we can either hand over the
management to a management company or homeowners need to step up and help
with the management, or we can increase the dues ourselves and hire more of
the work done for us. Sharon will draft a letter to be sent to all homeowners listing
these options, including the raising of dues.

5. The next board meeting will be held Monday, Sept. 25th, 2017 at Sue Harvey’s home.

Respectfully submitted

Sue Harvey
Secretary
