Cindy reported that due to a number of mailboxes in the community being damaged by
the winters snowplowing operations, a list has been produced, and letters have been
mailed out to the affected homeowners asking what color new mailbox they would
prefer. (It was decided on by the Board of Trustees and Images Landscaping that new
mailboxes would be purchased and installed). Cindy requested that these homeowners
contact the office by the end of the week to let her know their color preference as the
mailboxes will take about two weeks to be delivered. If a homeowner does not wish to
have this particular mailbox installed they can purchase their own, and Images will
install it, but the cost will not be covered.
Cindy also stated that the broken treadmill in the fitness room is waiting on a part.
Fitness Lifestyles has been out to the clubhouse regarding the broken treadmill.
Cindy announced that the irrigation spring start-up dates are: April 14th, 15th, 16th, 19th

Lastly, there are a number of trees and branches that have fallen throughout the

By Design Landscaping, will go through the entire community and address all
landscaping issues, including any damage to shrubbery.
Art stated that this is the last “winter” meeting for 2009-2010. Art also stated that he had two motions to pass. There was a meeting with Art, Tom from Images, and Joe from FBI.

The date of the estimate from By Design Landscaping to clean up the entire community due to winter storm damage is March 10, 2010. The amount of the proposal is $3950.00.

approved by the Board.

Comp, in case the workers get hurt. Glenn further stated that the Association has plenty
of insurance coverage. Glenn also stressed that if homeowners have any contractors

comp insurance coverage.
