Attending: Muller, Payne, Wieber, Maxwell, Frazier

Guests and Homeowners: T. Hjelmstad, C. Graham, J. Cazzanigi, J. Campbell, K. Shaw and Steve Bradley from Bradley Property Consultants

Homeowners Comments:  It was asked by several homeowners, and agreed to by the directors, that the Board post all construction work (over $1,000 in estimated cost) in an email so that qualified neighborhood contractors have a chance to bid the jobs.

The Board approved the March 2010 Meeting Minutes and the March 201 0 Financial Statement.

Committee Reports:

Design Review Committee, Tony present:  – Tony Presented the Board with a request from a homeowner for a new garage door.  The design review committee could not agree on the request because the door has decorative hardware.  The homeowner brought to the Boards attention that there is another house in the neighborhood with the same door that was approved by a past Board.  The Board voted to revise the current Rules and Regulations to state that decorative hardware is allowed on garage doors, but MUST be approved by the DRC.

It was also decided by the Board that one board member should accompany the management company on a monthly inspection to follow up on the status of violation notices, and home improvement requests made to the DRC. more

Dear Customer:

As a part of the District’s preventative maintenance program for the distribution system, our contractor, C & L Water Solutions, Inc., will be replacing the service line in the street from the water main to your property line valve.  The installation of the new service line will require temporary interruption of water service.  The work is scheduled to begin the week of May 24, 2010 and we anticipate all scheduled service line repairs to be completed by July 23.  Any interruption of water service will occur between the hours of 9 am and 4 pm.  Our staff will leave a notice on your front door prior to interruption of service.

The contractor will repair any damage to your driveway that may occur because of the service line replacement. If it is necessary to remove landscaping we will make every attempt to return your landscape to its original condition; however in some cases this may not be possible. The District does appreciate your cooperation and will make every effort to limit any inconvenience.

If you have any questions, please call the office at 303-770-8625.
