Board Minutes - meeting of February 15, 2014

CEDAR SPRINGS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION
BOARD OF DIRECTORS SPECIAL MEETING
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2014

MINUTES

Present:

President: Vince Sellen
Secretary: Paul Stannert
Treasurer: Art Shotwell
Board Members: Jean Taylor; Steve Daly
Guests: Andrea Gauthier, Gretchen Sellen, Kippy Strandberg

The meeting was called to order at 11:30 following the visiting of the fence behind 1811 and 1813 39th Court.

After a lengthy discussion, it was decided to accept the bid for repairing the entire fence (Perfectly Square bid of $930 for labor costs and $310 plus tax for materials) rather than doing temporary repairs of the worst areas.  The reasoning was that this would be most cost efficient.  Paul Stannert moved and Art Shotwell seconded to take this course of action.  The motion was approved.

There was discussion of the issues related to the current landscape contract with Simply Yards, as well as the Landscape Committee’s report on suggestions from the annual meeting.  The issues of concern regarding the Simply Yards contract were cost, difficulty communicating with the firm, and, though the workers were hard working, the lack of horticulture knowledge.  It was also noted that the equipment used was often not suitable for the wet areas of Cedar Springs.  Paul Stannert moved and Jean Taylor seconded to terminate the current contract with Simply Yards as of March 31 and enter into a contract with Green Street Landscaping.  The motion passed. 

A motion was made and seconded to seek City of Anacortes approval to remove five trees in the wetlands which threaten units 1813 and 1815 Cedar Springs Lane.  The trees in question will be marked.  The motion passed.

The meeting was adjourned at 1:00 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Vince Sellen
President and Secretary Pro Tem
