Stacey brought with her the plans from the architect along with a color brochure showing what the screened porch would be like when completed. Board reviewed and approved plans. Stacey then decided to stay for the remainder of the meeting.
Treasurer's Report
Tom Pearson was not in attendance so there was no Treasurer's report.
Sallie then reviewed her Manager's Report.
Action Items
Sallie reviewed the bids that Gardner Engineering had received for the paving of Timberwolf Court. They were:
Chamberlain $45,359
Benhoff $38,247
These prices do not include any concrete work that will need to be done to the sidewalks or curbs.
The Board discussed the prices and reviewed the money in the reserve accounts. The Board decided to put this topic on "hold" until the special budget meeting was held. The Board will decide at that time whether to do Timberwolf Court this year or wait until next year. The money is getting extremely tight due to the purchase of the 3 new tot-lots this past winter for a sum of $40,000.
Sallie presented pricing from Benhoff for some inlets in the community that were eroding due to the heavy rains this past spring/summer. These inlets need to be secured and protect the infrastructure of the community. The Board decided to discuss these prices at the budget meeting also.
The "Proposed Rules/Regs" were discussed and revised with some suggestions that Jim Mellarkey sent in. Sallie to print out new copies and those will then have to be sent with the official announcement of the Annual Meeting.
There were miscellaneous letters that were sent out during the past month, which the Board reviewed.
