c. We have $5,700 in operational reserve.
2. Situation with the bookkeeper has improved but we’re still looking at options to prevent performance lapses in future years.
3. Assessments are being paid at an excellent rate. So far we’ve received 166 payments in full.
4. Voting isn’t complete but it appears the budget will be ratified.
MAINTENANCE COMMITTEE REPORT
1. A request was received on a ratification ballot asking that we consider replacing play equipment at the two tot lots. After discussion, we’re still in favor of doing what we need to keep equipment safe and removing it if repairs can’t keep it safe but postponing any replacement action.
2. Request from impacted owner adjacent to NE corner detention pond asking that we address an issue with potentially hazardous alder trees near the fence line before having chain link fence installed to replace the current dilapidated wood fence.
3. Will soon be getting quotes for adding additional wood chips to play areas..
ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL COMMITTEE REPORT
1. Requests from homeowners for project approvals.
a. Pacini – Roof replacement options requested.
b. Parkin – Complete re-do of landscape. Submitted plans on file and approved.
c. Slater – Roof replacement approved.
d. Schenk – Replacement of several windows approved.
2. Complaints, CC&R violations
a. Complaints regarding basketball hoops were discussed. No vote was taken but the consensus was that basketball hoops in good repair should be allowed in front yard areas, provided they did not block sidewalk or street. The same would apply to other play equipment such as hockey goals.
b. Follow-up discussion on unapproved carport at Harrigan property on 158th Street. PDS has issued a noncompliance letter and given a deadline for owner to remedy lack of permit and setback violation issues. Once County action is complete, HOA can investigate options for dealing with an unapproved structure if it remains as is.
