OA Board Meeting Summary

The following is a summary of the OA Board Meeting held on June 16, 2009:

Board of Directors: Ralph Matson, Barbara Blackmer, and Gena Jones (via
telephone) participated. Ralph Matson announced that Mark Holliday and Robert Brough would no longer be on the Board. Zions Bank has not yet appointed their replacements. Community Manager Tod Bean answered
homeowner questions on several topics. After tabling the election of
OA Officers at the last two quarterly Board meetings, Zions' OA Board members proposed the election of Gena Jones as President of the Owners Association, with Ralph Matson as Vice-President and Treasurer. The motion carried, with Barbara Blackmer abstaining. A Secretary has not yet been elected.

Board members voted unanimously to ratify the Comcast Bulk Service Agreement. Barbara Blackmer noted that one homeowner opposed the assignment of the contract to the OA in the federal Bankruptcy Court, which cost the OA an additional $2-3 thousand in legal fees. The Board voted unanimously to renew the landscape contract with Kimball Property Maintenance. While the Board approved the charter for the OA's advisory Landscaping Committee (which will be comprised of residents), Ralph Matson tabled the proposed appointment of a resident as Chair of the Committee. Manager Tod Bean proposed a draft Self-Help Enforcement Policy to address circumstances such as unapproved structures blocking drainage swales (which property owners have refused to remove) and similarly serious violations. Ralph Matson tabled the proposal for further review. The next meeting of the Board of Directors is September 15, 2009 at 3 p.m. at the Information Center.
