Annual Meeting Minutes (May 11, 2015)

The annual meeting was called to order at 7:16pm by acting President Dan Vessels,Jr.

Twenty homes were represented either in person or by proxy.

Secretary Report –  minutes from April were approved as written.

Treasurer Report – Maureen Walsh summarized the finances for the past year, and what was anticipated for the remainder of 2015. Income received was from dues payments. Expenses were for landscape maintenance and costs associated for annual meeting preparation. Future expenses will be for any water leaks and/or replacement of irrigation lines when our water is turned on for summer. If you see a leak in our system, please email Maureen at mkw23477@msn.com. She does receive emails on her phone.  Maureen has also transferred some monies from our checking account into our reserve account. Per board vote, CD rate is too low to tie up any monies.

It was requested at a previous meeting that she look into the cost of field turf installation for our common area. The cost is approximately $7.00 SQ.FT, and the area should be as flat as possible, thus requiring the need for added dirt work and costs, the board determined not to have this installed.

D&D Committee – Shawn- no report

Grounds Committee – Bob reported that a walk around was done last Saturday,May 09. Approximately 20-25 homes were fine. The balance of homes still have some trim that needs to be cleaned, weeds to be pulled, bald spots in lawns, moss on roofs etc. Bob will have a full report on items that have not been taken care of by our June meeting. Letters will go out to homeowners at this time. Discussion ensued about legalities of taking pictures of each home from year to year from the public street. Dan will check in the legalities of this and report at the June meeting.

Committee Volunteers – our sign up sheets were passed around for our various committees. Exact committee members will be determined at our June meeting. For our Welcoming Committee, it was voted on and approved, for the duration of 1 year, that a $25.00 per house welcoming gift be given to new homeowners to the neighborhood. This does not apply to current homeowners purchasing a house for rental purposes, nor does it extend to rentals.

 

Annual BBQ – The date will be July 10, 2015, from 5:30pm – dusk. We will again have the Bounce House/Water Slide.  All children wanting to bounce must have a parent/guardian present and they must sign them in on the sign in sheet.
