MINUTES FOR THE LAKE FOREST COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

BOARD MEETING

Jan 9, 2003

 

Meeting opened at 7:40 p.m.

 

Present: Bev Franklin, Steve Gilbert, Evelyn Hempstead, Jim Evans, and Wes Cox.

 

Old Business

 

Evelyn reported some billing irregularities with our groundskeeper, Mark.   Bills are not current, and he’s made some errors in past bills that he is slow to correct.  Evelyn is monitoring the situation.

 

Steve reported that mailing addresses need to be updated for Lots #498, #522, and #689.  Mailings to these three lots are coming back to Steve from the post office. 

 

Minutes from last month are not yet complete, and will be approved electronically later this month.

 

 

Treasurer’s Report

 

Several bills need to be received to close out the CY02 books.

 

Wachovia had been sending statements to Gene Cole’s address, so several statements were late in being received.  They faxed two old statements.  December’s statement has not yet been received.  Wes is monitoring and working with Wachovia.  The mailing address has now been updated to the 9010 Octavia Court address.  Wes also has the $25 bill from the County for our Homeowners’ Association license fees.  Bills will be sent out soon for this year’s dues.

 

New Business

 

We received notification from Nationwide Insurance, our community insurance company, that they are providing a no cost rider on our policy to cover damage from acts of terrorism, at no additional premium.

 

Harry advised Evelyn that bushes of a residence on Lot #525 are blocking a sidewalk, and that the asphalt is breaking up on a section of a trail coming off the end of Modisto Lane; both discrepancies were reported to Harry by a concerned resident.  We don’t anticipate making any more trail repairs this year.  We expect to publish a newsletter later this spring in which we will remind residents to keep sidewalks and paths clear of overgrowth. 

 

The winners of the Holiday 2002 Decorating Contest have been posted to the LFCA Web site.

 

Meeting adjourned at 8:20 pm.

 

Next meeting will be at 7:30 pm Thursday, 13 Feb at Evelyn’s.
