OLD BUSINESS
1. Reply to Homeowner- The board reviewed the conditions and circumstances regarding the lawn damage at Lot #4103 .Lois Gilbert made the motion to have a letter drafted with the Board’s reply to the homeowner. Pat Angel seconded the motion. All were in favor. Vista Management will draft the letter for Board approval before it is mailed to the homeowner.
2. Landscape-The Board of Directors discussed whether or not a homeowner could elect to take responsibility for the care of their lawn. Per our governing documents this election would not reduce the annual assessment owed by the homeowner. Many requirements of such a program were discussed and these must be resolved before such a program could be implemented. A committee was established to work on the feasibility of such a program. The volunteers are: Lois Gilbert, Pat Angel and Caryl Shapiro.
3. AC Fence- A motion was made by Lois Gilbert to send a letter to all homeowners regarding the requirement to have screening fences around all AC units, pool pumps and propane tanks.. While most Homeowners have maintained their screening fences in good condition, many have not replaced fences when new AC units were installed and many fences have become rotten and need work. The letter should give amply time for Homeowners to evaluate their own property and make the necessary corrections. ARC permits will be required. Nick Frosolone seconded the motion. All were in favor.
4. ARC- Leann Warfield made the motion to remove Joan Stanton from the ARC Committee due to lack of attendance in 2006. Pat Angel seconded. All were in favor. Leann Warfield made the motion to accept the following new committee for a three year term - Annette Trifiro, Nick Frosolone, Donald Simon, Lois Gilbert and Leann Warfield.
