Discussion
ü
Bar Ditches- Steve Metzler asked that homeowners
please mow their own bar ditches (the area in front of your property to the
road). This will aid us in cutting back
expenses for the upkeep. Many homeowners
mow their own bar ditches already. There
was a bit of discussion on property lines.
ü
Steve Metzler gave an update on Roads (see
attached road presentation). Currently
we are spending about $30k a year on roads.
We have recently entered into an agreement with North American to patch
some newly formed pot holes before winter.
ü
Tom Takes discussed the possibility of a special
assessment for roads in order to complete the work in a shorter period of time.
ü
The board plans on calling a special meeting
dedicated to roads sometime in the first quarter of 2013.
ü
Annual Halloween Hay Ride will be at the corner
of W Canyon Creek Lane and Savage Creek Lane 10/27 @6pm.
ü
Eric Noll proposed a change to section 1108 of
the bylaws regarding term limits for serving on the board for every position
except President. There was a lot of
discussion about this and everyone is unsure if this change needed to be on the
initial meeting notice to be voted on.
Ultimately it was decided that the change would be written up and sent
to all members to be voted on at a later date.
