September Minutes
The board approved the minutes from September with a 5-0 vote.
Bylaws Amendments
The board voted 5-0 to approve the bylaws changes presented by Ami Pape at the previous meeting. The board made several typo and grammatical corrections and will mail out two documents to all homeowners: the proposed amendments as well as an explanation of the proposed changes. Elliot will create a revised version of Ms. Pape’s notice to homeowners explaining the changes. The board will work to ensure homeowners receive the mailing with at least 30 days’ notice before the annual meeting.
Annual Meeting
A room at RCC is reserved for 7:30 on December 4th. Genelle will ask about AV equipment for use with the conferencing software. The board approved with a 5-0 vote to purchase up to $60 of refreshments to share at the meeting.
Future Projects
Genelle will ask Steve if he is still interested in performing the proposed erosion control work in Spring 2018. The board also discussed further concrete repair work to be added to the 2018 budget.
Social Committee
At the social committee meeting earlier in the week, Sandy asked Matt to relay to Genelle that there were beer cans on the patio in front of her house. Although she was unsure of the owners, Genelle agreed to remove the cans as well as an unclaimed cooler.
Tree Replacements
Elliot met with Merrifield Garden Center to discuss tree replacements. Merrifield will plant a Dawn Redwood and a Sweetbay Magnolia at the cluster entrance to replace the two dead trees in the lower cluster. Merrifield will plant the new trees and remove the dead trees on October 31st. Elliot will ask about filling the holes left by the dead trees. Additionally, Manuel has agreed to water the trees.
Snow Removal
A retainer is due to American Lawn Brothers by November 1st. Jessica will call ALB to confirm the amount.
Pest Issues
Elliot discussed raccoons climbing into his garbage can, however, he believed it wasn’t enough of a problem to warrant any board action.
Next Meeting
The next meeting will be at 2217 on Wednesday, November 8th at 7PM.
