Action Items

Sallie had invited Mr. Kenneth R. Binnix of Days Cove Reclamation Company to come and speak at this evenings meeting. Mr. Binnix was also invited to speak at the BHS-HOA Annual Meeting to be held Wednesday, November 5, 2003 at the Abingdon Fire Hall at 7:30 PM.

Community Association Underwriters (CAU), which is the insurance company for Box Hill South, sent a final closeout letter to the homeowner at 3220 Pinecrest Court. The claim was being closed out because there was no legal liability on Box Hill South HOA relative to his injury, which took place in 2001.

Sallie informed the Board that three (3) homeowners had been sent to the attorney's office from collection this past month.

Sallie reviewed two (2) storm drains that needed repair. One (1) was located at the end of Split Oak Court and the other was at the end of Hidden Ridge Terrace. Benhoff was instructed to complete repairs at both areas.

Water Problems

Sallie reviewed several areas in the community that were experiencing water problems.

Stone Eagle Court - water behind homes from runoff and leaching. Benhoff presented 2 possible solutions. Sallie instructed to find out what the additional cost would be to increase swale area to include a portion of the 'hill' on the common ground between the 2 sets of homes at 3223-3225 SEC. This option would be to 'excavate and regrade the swale area measuring approximately 150' x 6' wide and install a 12" riprap channel to this area. Price of $6,700 to be adjusted to include small portion of hill. Sallie to notify Board of final price.

Deep Well Court - existing storm drain is being undermined and soil is eroding. Needs riprap to stabilize. Price to be adjusted to just include the storm drain area. Sallie to notify Board of final price.

Raccoon Court - existing storm drain area has overgrown vegetation in it. Needs to be cleaned out and parged and shape riprap again for proper drainage. Cost is $2,890.00. Motion by Rob to have work done, seconded by Sue, and unanimously approved.

Woodbrook Court - Sallie examined this area and found that the inlet itself needed some riprap for stabilization. Sallie to get price from Benhoff and relay to Board.

Raccoon Court - homeowner reported that rain from a large thunderstorm on June 21, 2003 flooded his car. Homeowner claims the asphalt repaving was not done correctly. He called and visited TPSI regarding this matter. He would like Association to pay for damages to his car. The Board discussed this matter and instructed Sallie to write homeowner and explain that many of the rainstorms recently have been extremely severe and taxing to the storm drainage systems. That particular storm created wide damage in Harford County and many roads were closed because they had washed out. There is no legal basis for liability on the Association for homeowner's damages.

Correspondence

Sallie reviewed the correspondence that was sent out during the past month. The only follow-up letter that needed to be done was to 3156 HRT because the front door they installed is not in compliance with the HOA architectural guidelines.

Rules/Regs

There were 3 new architectural request forms to examine.

Andrush 412 AWC Change color - Board to examine

Atwel 3337 DWC Shed (Approved)
