Dave Anderson opened the meeting. Dave called for finalizing plan for long term road maintenance as the first order of business. Pat Moyer suggested we discuss the pros and cons of paying for the entire development road needs at one time and breaking payment and completion into phases. One time would reduce inconvenience and payment would require a special assessment close to $1,000. Breaking project into segments would require some inconvenience every other year for the next eight years but we can pay as we go without requiring a special assessment. This approach will require a $100 increase in annual dues.

Plan discussed last week was finalized. Current Road account has a balance of $,8000 in 2008 an additional $7,500 will be added. The total will pay for Segment 1 roads repairs in 2009. Dues collected in 2009 and 2010 will replenish $15,000 to the Road fund to pay for Segment 2 road repairs in 2011. Process will continue in this manner until all four Road Segments have been repaired. Based on our studies the process will begin again with repairs due for Segment 1 again in 2019.

Slow progress in completion of lampposts was discussed. Our cost saving has been significant making it easier to accept the slowness of the project. Bob agreed to stay on top of Tim, the electrician.

Pat read the Landscape committee request for plantings around the new lift-station for both soil retention and screening purposes estimated at $5,500. Board approved $4,000 for these specific landscaping expenses request.
Board agreed to keep regular gate maintenance at twice a year for the 2008 contract instead of three times a year to save money because the third maintenance did not seem necessary.

Video camera installation was discussed as a way of both preventing and perhaps capturing an event in progress. Board agreed to seek out additional quotes for a system. The Board already has a bid from one vendor.

Meeting was adjourned.
