Having utilized an electronic election, the floor was not opened for nominations. After counting proxy votes and adding to the electronic tally the new board members were announced.  Directors Todd Edwards, James Charo and Julianna Domokos were accepted as new Board members for 2014-2015.

BUDGET AND FINANCIALS

A budget and financial overview was given by Bart Jones along with a short Q & A for the membership.  The 2014 assessment is to remain the same at $475.

QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION

The floor was opened up for question and answer. Discussion first focused on lights that were out at the Park and Reserve monuments at the front of the neighborhood, and on lights at the Park and Tennis courts. It was explained that a contractor was already working on the lights and that they should all be working in the next week or so. Additional discussion concerned the pet potty stations and that one of them had a rusted out basket that needed replacing.

The membership continued with discussions on cleaning roofs, replacing ‘no solicitor’ signs, and missing irrigation controller covers. Also mentioned was reviving bids for additional trees at the smaller parks, redoing the fountain in front of the pool, and re-staining the fences where weed eaters had marked up certain areas.

The membership then took up discussion of an incident where a homeowner’s dogs attacked another homeowner’s dog, causing large vet bills for the attacked dog. A clear majority of homeowners present requested that these dogs be removed from the neighborhood as they were thought to be dangerous. The owners of these dogs were present and stated that they had done everything they could to prevent this from happening again with the one dog they still had (after animal control took one away and euthanized). The board listened to both sides of the spirited discussion.

NEXT MEETING DATE

The membership was advised that the next meeting would be a regular Board meeting held on December 16th, 2010, 6:30pm @ the Perry Home YMCA.
