Board Meeting Minutes for Cedar Springs Homeowners’ Association
August 7, 2006
Present were Board members Don Lapworth, Kippy Strandberg, Barbara McClendon, Susan Miller, and Art Shotwell. Guests attending were Jan Berry and Malcomb McClendon.
The meeting was called to order at 7:05 p.m. The minutes were approved as read.
President’s Report
1. The revised CC&Rs will be distributed to members of the Board at the next Board meeting, August 31. A copy will eventually be distributed to each homeowner and a copy will be filed with the county. Homeowners who have renters occupying their units are asked to make sure their renters get a copy of the by-laws and read them.
2. The resident who has not cleaned up after their dog will be moving soon.
Treasurer’s Report
1. Our account balances are as follows:
$4500 in the operating account
$1800 in the insurance account
$39,400 in the reserve account
2. One homeowner is over sixty days delinquent in paying dues. Art will speak to the homeowner.
3. Earthquake insurance for the entire 28 units, up to a maximum payout of $5,625,000, would cost each homeowner approximately $10 per month, which would be added to the monthly homeowners’ fee. Details about the earthquake insurance will be sent to homeowners within the next few weeks. When the information arrives, please review it and let Susan Miller know if you are in favor of getting earthquake insurance coverage for our association or if you do not want us to get it. If enough people are interested, we will invite the insurance agent (who handles our association insurance) to appear at a general meeting to answer questions before taking a vote. Please call Susan at 299-8900 and let her know your thoughts. You may leave a message if no one answers.
Landscape Representative’s Report
1. A few people have expressed concerns that some areas are getting too much water and some are getting too little. Kippy will speak with Javier about correcting the situation.
2. People have asked why we still have so many weeds. Kippy will speak with Ken about what can be done.
3. A few small landscaping projects have been deemed necessary. Simply Yards gave an estimate the Board found reasonable, so the projects will be done soon.
4. Kippy and Don will meet with the owner of Simply Yards about some concerns people have. If they are responsive to our concerns, we will then consider whether to have them undertake some larger projects, such as amending the soil and moving misplaced shrubs and trees.
New Business
Barbara McLendon needs responses from homeowners and renters regarding whether or not they will be coming to this Sunday’s potluck (August 13) at 3.00 p.m. on the patio behind the Lapworths’ house, 1806 39th Court. All homeowners and renters are invited. Please bring your own chair, something to drink, and a plate and utensils. Let Barbara (293-2828) know what you are planning to bring so that she can make sure we don’t end up with too much of the same thing. Don Lapworth is offering his barbecue if anyone wants to bring something for the grill.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
Reminders
• It is requested that if homeowners have questions or concerns, they put them in writing and send them to the Board. If the matter is urgent, please indicate that it is, and indicate a date by when a response is needed. Someone from the Board will respond.
