THIRD ORDER OF BUSINESS-THE YEAGERS LITIGATION

The President provided each board member with a copy of the legal complaint prepared by attorney, Tom Fier.  Said complaint has yet to be filed with the Sacramento County Superior Court.  Further investigation into their original grant deeds revealed that the Yeagers in fact purchased their  two properties located within our gated community approximately three years after the Association’s CC&Rs were in place (August 1995).  The HOA was established in July 1998 and the Yeagers acquired their two properties in October 1998.   The HOA was previously misinformed of the Yeagers’ purchase date by past community members.   Our attorney has obtained a copy of the 1998 grant deed.

FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS-ANNUAL MEETING PREPARATION

The HOA annual meeting is scheduled to be held in November 2008.  In preparation for the annual meeting, we will need to select Inspectors of the Elections.  Election Rules that were sent out to each homeowner by mail last year will be published on the Association’s official website.  Additionally, we will be inviting homeowners to nominate themselves for office.  The President is authorized by the Board to contact and invite numerous specific homeowners to become a member of the Inspectors of the Elections committee.    The Inspectors committee will be the same individuals as in the Nominating Committee.

FIFTH ORDER OF BUSINESS-MAINTENANCE & OTHER UPKEEPING ISSUES

    • Doorbells—Kimberly Harbison will be inspecting damaged doorbells and determining the number of doorbells that need to be replaced.  Some homeowners have already replaced their damaged doorbells.
    • Podo Carpus trees— Some of the Developer’s 2005 trees were planted too close to the new townhouses and underneath short awnings, which may cause problems in the future.   The plan is to have those trees removed  in phases, possibly starting next year, especially after they outgrow their sites.
    • Terminix—All members voted in favor of renewing our contract with Terminix for another year until April 2009.

SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS-FINANCIALS

Ginger was late in preparing 1099 documents and getting the annual report to our tax accountant, therefore, we might be facing tax penalties this year.

SEVENTH ORDER OF BUSINESS- PROPERTY MANAGER INTERVIEWS

The Board will be interviewing two prospective companies:  Landmark and Sacramento Management Co. Inc. (represented by Peggy Hart).   An interview with Peggy Hart is currently scheduled for May 3, 2008 at 11:00a.m. at the Clubhouse. Marguerite will also schedule an interview with Landmark in May.
