Minutes for Special Board
Meeting on October 6, 2005
Attendees:
Walt Fedourich, Marie Martel, Jan Ehn, Michael Ricci and David Cronin
A
special Board Meeting was called to review the bids for painting the complex.
Walt Fedourich presented four bids from licensed, bonded painters. Three of the bids were close in amounts, one was considerably higher.
The
Board decided on DeHart Painting’s bid which was $22,100 to paint the front 10
units and the pool area. If the contract is awarded before November 1st,
the DeHart Painting Company will grant an $1100 discount. Payment will be 40%
upon award of the job and 60% upon completion.
Michael
Ricci is drawing up a formal contract to be signed along with the painter’s
proof of license and insurance.
Work
will begin with the units on Bethany Home Road and conclude with the pool area
and the adjoining four units. (5832, 5834, 5836 and 5838). If you live in this
area you must immediately begin to trim large shrubs and bushes around your
unit so that the painters can access all of the walls.
The
Board also agreed to remove three large overgrown trees from the south end of
the property.
The
next scheduled Board Meeting is Wednesday, October 19th at 7:00 p.m.
in the pool area.

Minutes for Board Meeting on
October 19,2005
Attendees:
Walt Fedourich, Marie Martel, Jan Ehn, Kari Root, Patty Banser, David Cronin,
Agnes Woodworth and Paul Phillips
1. Kari Root presented the
Treasurer's report. She reported that there are four owners delinquent with
dues, one of which is for sale.
2. The special Board meeting held
on October 6, 2005 was declared invalid because the required 3 day advance
notice was not given. So the agenda of that meeting was revisited. And the
results were the same as previously reported... DeHart Painting was awarded the
painting contract for $22,100 for the front 10 units and the pool area, with a
$1,100 discount if awarded before November 1st (which it was). Payment will be
40% up front and 60% upon satisfactory completion. The new building color
(Stonish Beige- eggshell finish) will be wall color and also color for around
cathedral windows and any glass doors. Wood doors, garage doors and eave trim
will be Crete (semi-gloss) all from Dunn Edwards. Painting begins next week at
5835 and will include 5837, 5839,747F, 5831,5833, 5832,5834,5836 and 5838 along
with the pool area.
The Board also renewed unanimously
to remove the three overgrown, hazardous trees at the south end of the complex.
3. Kari Root is obtaining
insurance quotes for next year and will be sure that the bidders have current
valuations in their contracts. Bidders will be American Family, Farmers and
Allstate.
Remember, as homeowners, the
entire inside of your unit and its contents is your responsibility to insure.
You also should check your valuation coverage.
4. The
south fence will be replaced with a block wall and the grass replaced with
desert landscaping. This will save considerable money in the long run.
5.Someone reported seeing mice
around. If you notice any, go to the hardware store and get mouse trap(s) to
set out.
6. Dues increases/special
assessments were discussed as a possibility in the future to cover costs of
painting, water line replacement and rising insurance rates. It was decided to
raise these questions at the Annual Meeting in January when we will have more
owners in attendance.
