Committee Reports:
Facilities:
Problems with Clubhouse door hinges and the leaking hose or faucet attached to the Clubhouse were discussed resulting in recommendations to cure these issues.
Lawn and Grounds:
Jamie reported on problems with sprinkler heads and repairs that had been made. It was also noted that curbing in the driveway was deteriorating and will require remediation at some point. Overgrowth of blackberry bushes on the back wall of the parking lot was also noted as needing attention. Four hose reels are scheduled for replacement.
Old Business:
Pressure washing of Building 2 is scheduled to begin before the end of June with painting expected to begin immediately thereafter. Jamie reported that new voting on the color palette did not change the original voting results where option A was selected.
Parking lot sealing and striping was discussed with the result being that a slurry technique would be preferable to blacktop replacement.
In regard to the upcoming insurance renewal, Ralph reported that premium quotes were expected to be received in August. Moe made the point that Declaration pages of all Association insurance policies must be sent to all Condominium owners.
It was reported that the barbeques in the common area were inoperable and unfit for use. Consequently, the Board approved an expenditure of $1,100.00 for the acquisition of a replacement from Costco as recommended by John Templeton.
New Business:
Annual alarm testing is scheduled for June 30, 2025 and Ralph will notify Owners that our alarm company will need access to all condominium units as part of this work.
Fourth of July preparations were discussed with the need to deny driveway and parking access to non-owners/tenants.
Regarding new landscaping issues, it was noted that a dead bush in front of Building 1 should be removed. Downspout drainage problems were also discussed which Tom Bakken will investigate further. Lastly, it was noted that some decorative trees and bushes were growing too tall and would impair views if not trimmed. It was agreed that these plantings would be identified and scheduled for annual trimming.
Patio leaks in Building 2 were discussed, and it was agreed that this issue must be resolved.
Solicitation is already prohibited at Mariner’s Cove, but this has been an ongoing problem with Ziply leaving door hangers. More explicit signage was discussed as a future deterrent.
Regarding the need for a computer to be used with our new cloud storage system, Sandi Mehl moved -that an inexpensive computer be purchased for this purpose. Second by Carol Hassebrock. Motion carried.
