May 2013 Meeting Minutes

SCOTTSDALE COLONY
HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION MEETING
May 30, 2013


The board meeting was called to order at 5:38 PM.  Board members attending: Suzanne Muusers, Brian Weimer, Lance Donatello, and John Frigo.   Also attending: Steve Cheff of Heywood Realty and Scott Sowl of Kleanrite Landscaping.

The board walked the community inspecting driveways with Steve to assess which needed to be repaired/replaced first.  Steve has notes from inspection and will contact contractors for bids.

The minutes from the last board meeting were approved as presented.

The financial statement for April was reviewed and approved. 


Old Business:
The board bids for landscaping maintenance.  Kleanrite had proposed to blow all of the community once a month and spot blow/clean as needed during the month.  This would add about $600 per month to his contract each month on average, some months will be higher and some months lower.  This is still lower than the competitive bids that were received.  Bids ranged from $4875 to $4990 per month.  The board thinks that the HOA deserves better landscapers but right now it is not fiscally responsible to add that much more to the landscape budget.  The board will re-visit this issue in 12 months.

The last of the architectural guidelines will be reviewed next month.

The bathroom doors have been replaced.  New hardware still needs to be added to them.

The tennis court net has been replaced and the lights have been painted.

There is a new sign on the pool gate.  Pool users are still not putting chairs back or putting down umbrellas.  Steve to get another sign for the inside of the gate to serve as a reminder.

New Business:
The board discussed the issue of dog waste as some residents are not cleaning up after their pets.  Steve to get area north of the 6270 mailboxes cleaned up as it is a mess.  This topic will be discussed further in June.

Clubhouse cleaning has been tabled until the June meeting.

Violations:
The Board discussed delinquencies and violations.  Management to take approved measures to correct problems.

Legal Issues
none

The meeting adjourned at 7:32 PM. The next meeting will be on June 24, 2013 at 6:00 PM.


Respectfully submitted,
Scottsdale Colony HOA,
