Tuesday, August 21, 2012 - Meeting Minutes
Tuesday, August 21, 2012
Present were Laura, Fabio,
Faith, and Karen
The stumps will remain and the
wood chips from the trees will be dumped behind the tennis courts.
It was discussed to have Davis do all of the tree work this year and work out a payment plan over the next 2 years with him, Fabio will discuss with Rob, we tried calling Rob while we were all there, no answer.
We also talked about the condition of the paths and thought about possibly putting sidewalks in and NO this was not my idea, it was being discussed as I entered the meeting.
Laura is going to call the city to find out the process and any regulations about sidewalks. We talked about assessing the neighborhood for it.
I was talking to Steve about sidewalks and he brought up a few valid points. Other than the expense of putting sidewalks in, some homes will need to alter landscaping and sprinklers which can become a costly expense, we probably need to talk about this even further.
As I mentioned at the meeting, Alan Vosko said they paid $1.25sq ft for repaving , that is an option with some additional costs of removing and cutting out roots from the few areas that are impacted, this may be a good idea, especially with the trees being trimmed/removed. Obviously, we will need to wait a few years or send out a special assessment for the path since we are spending approx $20K on trees over the next few years.

We
walked around the commons and Fabio identified all of the trees that will be
either trimmed or removed. We walked by the creek and decided that we will
contribute $1,000.00 to HH and they can deal with it, of course we will not pay
until the job is complete.
