Old Business:

Three quotes were received for developing dog friendly areas on the property; these being in the amounts of: $1,482.40, $2,779.50. and $1,853.00. After discussion, the Board decided the costs were too high relative to the number of dogs potentially involved and elected not to proceed with the project.

For the pool refurbishing project, Ralph reported that mildew mitigation was nearly complete as was painting of affected areas. It was noted that the bolts on the pool ladder were rusty and that they should be replaced with stainless steel bolts.

For the Reserve Study, Moe Scharhon had prepared a comprehensive spreadsheet analysis that was made available to all Board members. This will be a valuable resource for mapping out a timeline for capital projects, and the necessary capital reserves or special assessments required to cover the costs.

Ralph reported that a successor has been found to replace our pool equipment contractor.

For the upcoming annual cleanup on May 24, 2025, Kathleen has developed a list of tasks and will circulate it among the owners and interested parties.
