Present: Dan Bollig, Dan Collins (813), Randy Fay (Secretary), Nancy Lewis, Ray Musser (Vice President), Tim Laudick (President)

Tim called the meeting to order at 7:35pm

Financials:

• Sandie Cooper was not here but provided the financial statement attached..
• The utility bill seems to be down, which is good; We assume it's because of reduced because lower water usage (every other day).
• Significant arrears on one unit, which is near sale, so that should work out OK. (Update: The unit was sold and the arrears were settled.)
• Randy moved/ Ray seconded, unanimously accepted

Landscaping Committee Report

• New concrete edging was done and is already reflected in financial report.
• Irrigation shutoff is coming up soon (turn-on was handled by Bookcliff).
• Tim thanked Ray for responding to many issues.
• East Commons area - Tim put more soil conditioner and such on there. He will do another dose. Dan Bollig said it looks better than it ever has.
• Concrete edging future project: Should be budgeted for next year. But we might be on his schedule for a bit more this year (although the vendor discouraged us from it, expecting it will not be possible). Nancy moved to authorize $1000 for additional edging; Ray seconded. Accepted unanimously. But likely next year, not this year.
• Randy moves purchase of wagon that Tim recommends $75, Nancy seconds, unanimously accepted
• Shrub replacement is needed, as we have many stressed shrubs. We need to figure out if there might be a reason. Discussion of how to mark dead shrubs and debug problems with water delivery. First step is to identify the dead shrubs, second step find out if the water is right, 3rd is to replace them. Dan Bollig will tag bad shrubs. Discussion followed about having a replacement plan every year.

Architectural Committee

• Inspection of structures: Tim says we/he should walk the neighborhood again this year and let people know if they need to do some work.
• Letter of enforcement issues. We agreed on this path:

1. List what the issues are that we care about (roof, driveway, sidewalk, fascia/soffit, stucco).
2. Decide How enforcement happens and what the fees (or even rebilling) are
3. Communicate this well to membership.

The first step is to walk the neighborhood and figure out what issues are most important to us. Randy will arrange this for the board.
