Minutes for the Lake Forest Community Association

Board Meeting

June 9, 2005

 

The Lake Forest Community Association Board of Directors met at Bev’s home at 7:30 pm on June 9, 2005.

 

Bev called the meeting to order at 7:35 p.m.  In attendance were Bev Franklin, Jim Evans, Bill Ethington, Harry Hopkins, and Evelyn Hempstead.  Gloria Flick, Steve Gilbert, Wes Cox and Dave Wilson were absent.

 

The minutes from May were reviewed and approved.

 

Bev led a discussion on the topics for next week’s General Meeting.  Cathy Belter, the local rep to the FCPS School Board, will lead off the General Meeting with a discussion of the issues surrounding the school redistricting. Harry agreed to present an overview of the Charter for the Architectural Review Committee.   He will prepare a one or two page overview of the ARC Charter to distribute at the General Meeting.  Harry will also solicit for a resident to join the ARC so a non-Board member may participate.  Wes will lead a discussion of the 2005 budget and a summary of major expenditures planned for this year.   Bev will introduce Board members and have them say a few words if they choose.

 

Evelyn noted that this year’s yard sale seemed to have better traffic compared with previous yard sales.  The Pennysaver ad Gloria placed was probably influential. 

 

Bev called Mr. Parmon of VDOT regarding their study last fall of the traffic at the Parkway and Modisto Lane.  Mr. Parmon explained that traffic flow does not warrant a stoplight at this time. 

 

Bev intends to call Virginia Power on the status of their promise to survey our community streetlights. 

 

George of Southern Asphalt and Bev walked several areas of the path that need repair, and he will provide Bev an estimate for repairs.  He will also estimate replacing all of the paths maintained by the Association.

 

Evelyn had new plants planted at the entrances, and all appears to growing well. 

 

Meeting adjourned at 8:25 pm.  Next meeting is the General Meeting 7:30 pm on 15 June at Pohick Library.  Our next Board meeting is Thursday, 14 July at Bev’s, 7:30 pm.
