Minutes from
the General Membership Meeting of April 28, 2010:
A motion to
accept the minutes as presented was made, seconded and approved.
Treasurer’s
Report:
Bill Alexander,
on behalf of treasurer Pam Creswell, reviewed a written report with those
present detailing the income and expenses of the Association to date.
Revenue totaled $25,603 (budget for 2010: $33,150). Expenses showed
$12,074 (budget for the year: $42,130.) Net income through August 5, 2010
is $13,529. The president explained several of the variances to the
membership and accepted the financial report as presented.
New Neighbor
Introductions:
Bill Alexander
invited the new neighbors present to introduce themselves. Four new and
first time attendees to the Association did so.
Beetlebusters’ Report:
Chair of the
Beetlebusters’ Committee Suzanne Adams provided a brief report on the
inspections conducted by her committee members to date. She also invited
Pine Brook residents to attend a training session on October 2nd.
She stated that the Association should be pleased with the degree of
containment of beetles in the subdivision.
Roads
Committee Report:
In the absence
of the co-chairs of this committee, Bill Alexander discussed Boulder
County’s plans for the repair of paved roads. More specifically, Bill
outlined three options that he sees for Pine Brook Hills residents for the
repairs of roads in our subdivision. They include;
·
an assessment of $130. annually for 15 years for each PBH unit
·
a lawsuit filed by our residents against the County to compel
it to use its funds to complete necessary repairs to paved roads
·
the formation of a political action group in an effort to
influence the County politically
Bill noted that
each of the three alternatives were fraught with positives and minuses and
considerable thought would have to be give to this issue.
There followed
a prolonged question, answer and comment period during which residents in
attendance offered their views as to how the Association might proceed.
Covenants
Advisory Committee Report:
Bill Alexander
stated that units 4 and 6 are lacking the necessary signatures on the
petition to modify the covenants as presented to the Association members.
The majority of owners in all other units have recorded a majority in favor
of doing so.
A short
question and answer period followed the remarks.
Fire
Department Report:
Boulder
Mountain Fire Protection District Chief John Benson provided a brief report,
including an explanation that his crews contained and extinguished several
small grass fires in early August. He also advised caution of residents,
contractors and others inasmuch as the grasses are currently tinder-dry.
Adjournment:
A motion was
offered, seconded and approved by those present to adjourn at approximately
6:05 pm.
Respectfully
submitted,
Tom Mann
Secretary
