The January 15, 2009 board meeting was relatively uneventful.  We had minor changes to the November and December minutes, but have received the final on September’s.  I’ll try to get ahold of the 2008 minutes and get them up on the site when things low down around here a bit!

FY 2008 ended with a significant surplus, which is great because delinquencies continue to rise although some accounts have made progress.  The 2007 taxes have been filed, and the CD that was in Capitol’s name has been fixed. It is now in TTS’s name and TIN. The pool committee reported that it has requested that its management company get bids for necessary repairs in the spring. The pool committee will meet around Feb. 10th.

The fence near Ed Burgos’ unit has been fixed, as was the leak reported by John Sibenik.  The board voted to move forward with a change in trash contractor to AAA, but we’ve not done so yet.  PDS provided additional recycling bins in an attempt to keep us.   We decided to roll over a CD coming due in February, 1/2 for 3 years and 1/2 for 4 years to take advantage of higher rates.

The board voted to sign a contract with Pro Grounds for the grounds maintenance, for 2009 and 2010.  They will do a grounds cleanup in the spring, and we will schedule a walk-through with the grounds committee also.

The board passed a resolution reducing the move-in fee to $100 and required that it NOT be paid in cash to the site office, to provide more controls over the receipt of cash.

Owners were to be sent (and now have been sent) a new set of condo fee coupon books to correct an error on the treatment of late payments.

One important issue is that our insurance company, CAU, has written us with concerns about our wiring, emergency lighting, and exit signs.  We need to get some other opinions and bids on these items and will be developing our plan to address the issue.

The next meeting will again be on a Thursday, February 19, at 7:00 PM at the school. The pool meeting will be Tuesday, February 10, at the TTS site office.
