Board Meeting Minutes
April 11, 2016
Secretaries Report
Had been previously submitted to all Board members.
Motion to accept with no corrections made by Beth Kaplan and seconded by Ernie Wheeler. Passed 5-0 (see attached)
Treasurers Report
Was presented by Anita Haskell (see attached).
It has been suggested that it is time to look head to determine what is needed coming up in the next few years. Evaluate when the roads will need to be re-surfaced, the conditions of the roofs and the siding on all homes. Possibly a committee needs to be formed to address this timely issue in order to update the proposed budget for the future.
The financial reports are attached.
It appears that the spring clean-up has not been completed. We have received the contract for Mainly Grass for the next two years. It will be necessary in the future to budget more money for maintenance. A special thank you to Anita for the time spent to prepare all the financial,reports.
Motion to accept was made by Beth Kaplan and seconded by Ernie Wheeler.
