Minutes from June 11, 2009 meeting and completed/tallied survey form ("what's new" and "minutes and financial" section)

 
Attached is new Survey form with correct priority.
 
Cudos to:
a.       CAB & SHAB team for all the wonderful improvements to the Community during the year!  Look forward to more as monies & time permits!
b.       David did an amazing job of going through the budget, thoroughly and in detail.  Everyone present was pleased and  I believe received a better understanding of how much, why, and so on.  And, as usual, his diplomacy & charm prevailed in all conversations!  Thanks, David!
c.       Pam Booth for a job-well-thought-out & implemented on our 2009 Survey.  This contributed tremendously to great and positive discussion at the meeting!
Meeting discussions:
1.       Bathroom in basement.  Floors are slick & slippery – need something to hold onto and solution to make them less slick.
2.       Pool tags – cheaper version – we could print them ourselves (I can do it on my printer in a thicker kind of different-colored cardboard each year up to 8-1/2 x 11)
3.       Be sure pool hours are posted.
4.       When someone is using the pool for a party or group or more than 10?? Or more??? People, need to reserve in advance by posting it on-line on the website calendar.  Should person notify Clubhouse caretaker?
5.       Before opening pool each year, we need to organize a general pool clean-up – didn’t get that done this year!  Everyone too busy.
6.       Sensor lights – check their sensitivity source – possible spider webs??  Dogs?
7.       Owners of vacant lots need to bush-hog – diplomatic approach, then County can handle if it comes to that.
8.       Discussed use of Clubhouse with paying, which is happening because keys are out there.  Board can talk about this.
9.        Voted on 2009 Survey priority results.  Motions were made to vote and votes (including absentee ballots) were:
A.      YES 42 votes CAB Items – changed priority order: moved “Add weed control to island mulch beds” to #2 changing order of items with “Mulch community islands annually” as #3, etc.
NOTE:  Had long discussion about weed control – how  Round-up just doesn’t do the job – need professional blend, which is difficult to do – TrueGreen (who does Patty’s yard) is contacting David about professional weed control JUST IN BEDS – we will also shop others  for a pricing, of course!  
B.      YES 42 votes SHAD items: priority order remained the same
C.     Undecided items remain just that
D.     Items not wanted:  
1.       “Pay for Cable TV/Satellite in clubhouse” - NO 35 votes
