8 October 2014

In attendance: Kelsey Navasaard, Ryan Holdaway, MSJones, Daniel Trousdale, DeeAnn Jennings, Shirley Tong (observing not voting)
Excused: Norm Tong

President’s Report
1.     Ryan spoke with Susan Peterson.  Roommates have rearranged themselves.  Boys have moved out.  All the dogs are gone, but maybe the puppy is still there.  They have also been asked to pick up the poop.  Things seem to have immediately improved.
2.     Remember that it is okay to call the police, especially if people are breaking the law.  Like having a big fight in your underwear on the front lawn and then beating up on cars. 
3.     Marcello has asked to be replaced.  He has missed four meeting in a row, so we can release him.  We have the opportunity to replace the position—mid-year.  Let’s think about names and maybe put out some feelers.  Be mindful of this for the next month.
a.     Megan moves that we honor his request for a release.
b.     Ryan seconds.
c.     All in favor.  Thanks, Marcello. 

Treasurer’s Report
1.     We are 100% reconciled—quickbooks to our accounts. 
a.     Sometimes the bank doesn't register to quickbooks, so Daniel needs to add transactions in. 
b.     Maybe the tracking number for the accounts gets lost.  But Daniel fixed this. 
2.     Financial Standing (After deposits)
a.     In checking, we will have $47,717
b.     In capital reserve/money market, we will have $40,172.40
c.     Primary savings is $25.18 in the account to old the capital reserve.
3.     Following up with yard care bill.
a.     September was $1100.  This was down and maintenance is down, too. 
4.     Daniel will call State Farm to get the new bill. 
5.     We need to renew ourselves as a non-profit.  Daniel has been updating—he needs to figure out how to change the president from Kim McClellen.  Daniel will finish this.
6.     Every August, Norm and Randy Pyne are reimbursed $85 for the use of their lights each night.  We should have a paper trail with this.
7.     Daniel uses part of the meeting to reimburse everyone and pay all bills. 

NOTE:  Lights are connected, so the garage light also turns on the outside light. 

Secretary Update
1.     Still have by-law amendments to fix up and pass by you.  Working on that. 
2.     Review copy of By-law amendment.  If it is okay, I will have it notarized.

Painting Project
1.     Painting is done and paid for. 
a.     Two exceptions—Teria Walker and Mitchell Mason still need white paint. 
                                               i.     This is a hard issue—Mr. Mason doesn’t want to change.  But we need to be clear that architectural control of the exterior belongs to the board.  He is now back in Japan.  Ryan has his email and will contact him to explain.
                                             ii.     Once this happens, Ryan will contact Mitchell.
1.     Then he will arrange with Marcello for a time.
2.     DeeAnn will tell Teria Walker the time.
3.     Ryan will let the Tongs know the time so they can open the Mason door.

Shutters
1.     We have one bid for $1400, which seems high ($20.50/shutter=$41/window).  This is with us ordering and securing the shutters.
2.     We will get a second bid from Santos (recommended from Kim McClellan.)  We will pick between the two bids via text.

Repairs
1.     Status of repairs to McKell deck.
a.     Written bid is $3700 for the repair.  This is in line with others that have paid to fix their balconies.
b.     Ryan moves we accept the bid.  Megan seconds.  All in favor. 
2.     Estimate of sidewalk repairs.  We are interested in starting with lifting the sidewalks.
a.     Gregory will lift four panels of sidewalk for $500-$600 each.
b.     He follows industry standard.  They drill holes, lift the block, pour concrete underneath to lift it up. 
c.     He can do this on the 24th. 
3.     Another person to get a bid as recommended to DeeAnn from BYU.  Ryan can follow up with them.
4.     We are going to start with the lifting and save shaving for next year.
5.     DeeAnn will remind Tony will come for the flashing between Trousdale and Jones. 

Other
1.     We need to clean out the gutters. 
a.     DeeAnn will ask Tony if he can do this for a bid.
