Alice has dry rot and painting issues. 4.0 APPROVAL OF MINUTES – 5.0 REPORTS 5.01 FINANCIAL REPORTS – Jim Ray. Written report submitted. Ekim has been paid $69,260 with $67640 to be paid. 5.02 WELCOMING REPORT – Jack Rugar. No new move-ins since the Annual Meeting last week (11/9). 5.03 WEBSITE REPORT – Glen Grossman. A new “forms” page has been added to the website. Ken Morley suggests it link to the forms on the Architectural Control Committee page. 5.04 GARDENING REPORT – Rodger Axt. A written report was submitted (see attached). The Committee will be meeting with Susan McDonald with whom we contract for gardening services. They plan to discuss with her suggestions from the horticulturalist and to discuss a new contract (the old one expired in June). Susan advised she plans to be raising her rates. Grossman notes it was represented to the Budget Committee last spring that Susan did not intend to raise her rates. Busman instructs Rodger to attempt to obtain three bids for gardening services. Rodger advises Susan’s general liability policy is expiring this month and she is working with her broker to secure a new policy. The Committee requests a Board member attend the meeting with Susan. 5.05 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS REPORT – Stephanie Lee. No report. She suggests this item be dropped from future agendas. 5.06 RULE COMPLIANCE REPORT – Diana Busman. No report. Grossman suggests the Rules Enforcement Committee be resurrected to deal with Rules violations. Idea tabled to the next Board meeting. The tenant in #65 is still parking diagonally in her driveway. Rugar will make contact. Candy says the boyfriend of the daughter in #84 was speeding on Glen Lake Drive (Rugar estimates he was going 40 mph) and when Candy and Rugar told him to slow down, the boyfriend responded in a rude (but not threatening) manner. He also parks on Glen Lake Drive in violation of No Parking signs. Several people want him banned. Grossman to advise #84 the boyfriend may not enter Glen Lake Drive. 5.07 MAINTENANCE REPORT – Jack Rutherford. Gutters need sweeping because the dirt and debris in them is interfering with the paint job. Sun Rain proposes to sweep the roofs and clean the gutters on the two-story units for $600. Motion by Grossman, seconded by Rugar, to approve the bid by SunRain, to be paid from account #7600 general maintenance. Motion passes. 5.08 LAKE REPORT – Jack Rutherford. No report. 5.09 WILDLIFE CONTROL REPORT – Jack Rugar. No new raccoons caught since the last Board meeting (11/4/04). Our pest control person is having the traps cleaned. 5.10 ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL REPORT – Ken Morley. #67 has installed a metal garage door and they want to paint it with Benjamin Moore’s Navajo White to match the trim color. They will agree to all future maintenance of it including painting it. Someone mentioned those garage doors have a lifetime warranty on them (the paint is baked on). We need to clarify the Navajo White as each paint company's Navajo White may be different. It should be the Navajo White that matches our trim.

Rutherford will call Jeff Kane to get a quote on how much it will cost us to get a limited workers’ compensation policy to cover hiring workers to seal the chimneys which have already been painted. Rodger notes the white trapezoids on the single story units have not been painted. Candy says they are supposed to be painted with accent color. Rugar advises there is a controversy in some places as to what color a wall should be painted.
