In case you missed it last Wednesday, you missed another great Ice Cream Social.

A beautiful sunny day, lots of friends, and lots of ice cream.

Thanks to everyone who participated. And thanks to the Social Committee for all their hard work!

Hope to see everyone join in next year.

July Meeting Minutes

SPRING POND ESTATES HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MONTHLY MEETING - JULY 14, 2025


PRESIDENT - President Lee Page called the meeting to order at 6:30 PM. President Page welcomed newly elected Board Member Bob Milbury and re-elected Board Members Pat Mirisola and Frank McClellan.

RECORDING SECRETARY - President Page made a motion to accept the June minutes as written, seconded by Vice President Pat Mirisola. Motion passed with minutes on file for review.

TREASURER - Treasurer Joe Strazzere reported the expenses for June were under budget noting the purchase of an irrigation controller that was not budgeted, but that we spent less on fertilizer and weed control than originally budgeted. Board Member Frank McClellan made a motion to accept the Treasurer’s Report, seconded by Board Member Bob Milbury. Motion passed with detailed Treasurer’s Report on fill for review.

ARCHITECTURE - President Page reported for Chairperson Diane Kaplan that new windows had been purchased at 16 Spring Pond Circle. Also new garage doors and shutters will be installed at  8 Spring Pond Circle with the approval of the Architecture Committee and the Board of Directors.

FINANCE - Chairperson Joe Strazzere reported that there were no volunteers for the Finance Committee. Vice President Mirisola offered to stand on committee with Treasurer Strazzere.

LANDSCAPING - Chairperson Clay Feeter reported that he is asking homeowners to manually water their lawns where there were brown spots and that Rainmaker Irrigation recommended homeowners with inground sprinklers extend their watering schedule to compensate for lack of rain during heat waves. He also noted that he will do a walk through on Tuesday, July 22nd at 10:00 AM to determine which non-buffer zone area trees were in need of pruning.

MAINTENANCE - Chairperson Lee Page reported that the walk-way at 15 & 17 Spring Pond Circle will be painted. He also reported that Gutters by Design will be submitting an estimate for replacing gutters at 23 Spring Pond Circle and 19 Ruch Lane. A detailed maintenance report will be on file for review.

SOCIAL - Chairperson Deb Strazzere reported that an Ice Cream Social is scheduled for Wednesday, July 23rd at 6:00 PM. There is also a Juliet’s Dinner scheduled for Wednesday, August 20th at 5:00 PM at Dufour’s Restaurant and that a detailed schedule of social events has been posted at the Community Center.

Chairperson Strazzere also reported that in order to prevent non-resident usage of the Community Center restroom and kitchen, it was voted on at the Annual Meeting that the Community Center entrance door will be locked to the public and that an entrance key will be made available to every homeowner in the near future.  She added that effective August 1st the entrance door will be permanently locked to the public and that keeping this new key with the mailbox key may be helpful.

WELCOMING COMMITTEE - Chairperson Pat Mirisola reported there was an open house at 3 Ruch Lane, noting updates on future sales will be reported to the Board once the paperwork has been processed through the committee.

OLD BUSINESS - There was some discussion by the Board regarding whether homeowners at 23 Spring Pond Circle or the Association would be responsible for repairing the exterior lamp post wiring. President Page suggested the By-Laws be reviewed by the homeowner in order to reach a proper conclusion.

NEW BUSINESS - It was determined by the Board that resolving bee hive issues would be the responsibility of the Association via John Patten if on common ground. It would otherwise be the homeowner’s responsibility.

Board Member Frank McClellan made the motion to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Board Member Bob Milbury. Motion passed and meeting was adjourned at 7:30 PM.

Respectfully Submitted,

El Rotsko, SPEHOA Recording Secretary
