Business:
- A homeowner has requested permission to fly an American flag. Discussion ensued about appropriateness of flags and displays. Sarah noted that the term “lawn ornament” was intended to include flags and other displays in front of a unit. Board Directors would like to review and revise Aesthetics policies to address the issue of flags and other displays.
- The Board reviewed requests made to the landscaper since March. Several things have been done and some haven't been done. When a new property agent/manager is hired, the Board will direct him or her to meet with Craig to get to know him and to review and evaluate his performance.
- Steve will ask landscaper to put down mulch at front (Wildberry) entrance.
- Termite inspections are coming up in July. Letters will be mailed to owners on Prestwick , Durbin, Providence and Quintin.
- Don Barry reported that Harold's “tree men” took out some trees on Grove Park and Finley. Craig has removed trees overhanging the entrance to Wildberry Lane and to Prestwick Place .
- Laura Atkinson requested that the dead/dying Junipers be removed from the entrance to Quintin.
- Clarification needs to go out soon (to owners) regarding homeowners fees. Phyllis Cone is still receiving payments. Harold White's office got off to a rather “late” start processing and debiting accounts. The new property agent, when hired, will need to quickly communicate the new address to which to forward payments.
- Payments will be made to a few owners for the use of water during the recent power washing of all units in WP. Owners will be asked to make a “donation” to the HOA for small amounts used. Information will be posted in the newsletter.
The Board went into Executive Session to discuss delinquent accounts and other matters. Community members were excused.
- Information about delinquencies from D. M. was not available at this meeting.
- The contract for Morgan's Property Management was reviewed. Don, Laura, and Edison voted to approve the contract for one year – form July 1 st to June 30 th .
Adjournment: 8:30 p.m
