Treasurer’s Report:

Bob Fos reported that as of  May 2003 there was $46,556.12 in the checking account and $94,881.81 in savings.  Bob said that in checking around for better interest rates for our savings account, that he had not been able to come up with a better interest rate than we are currently receiving.  Doug asked Bob if he could get together a report with our fixed annual income and fixed annual expenses since we are soon going to have some large expenditures such as the building of the pavilion.

   West End/City affairs-----Doug Eibsen, Wanda Greer, Bill Aimone, Cindy Rice(sewer)

    Pavilion------Kim Saxon, Lore Cordell, Lloyd Pepper

    Walkovers------Wanda Greer, Sylvia Sullivan, Doug Eibsen, Bob Bowe, Bill Aimone

    Pool------Bob Bowe, Cindy Rice, Diane O’Neall

    Harbor -----Stan Krupa, Lloyd Pepper

 

Old Business:

 

Walkovers:

Wanda Greer said that she needed a more precise drawing for the walkover permit.  It needs to include exact location, height, etc.  In addition, photos would be helpful.

It is estimated that the total cost will be $20,000.  We will get $12,500 back because of the CIPA funding.  We have a year to use the money.  It was agreed that some surveying is necessary before the walkovers are started. 

 

ACC Committee:

Doug Eibsen brought up the problem of trash and debris at construction sites.  Doug suggested that we require a deposit when there is new construction or major remodeling.  If trash is not confined and Ron has to be hired to clean up around the site then a portion of the deposit would be forfeited.  He will check with the architectural control committee to see if this is possible.  In addition, Doug will check with them to see if we can require the orange plastic fencing at construction sites.

 

Pool:

Bob Bowe reported that the pool passed the city inspection with no problem.  There was a question as to a hard line phone as opposed to a cell phone.  Due to requests at the annual meeting, it was decided that the pool would be open until 8:00 PM and it would be open weekends in September as in previous years.  Bob Bowe brought up that we need a concrete area for the trucks to pull up to when they clean the portable toilets.  This will be done along with the construction of the pavilion. 

 

Marina:

Lloyd brought up that we need new “No Wake” signs.  It was agreed that four new “No Wake” signs were needed.  Lore Cordell said that her husband, Howard could get these in the shape of a stop sign.  They would be made of aluminum and reflective.  It was agreed that the issue of fencing around the fishing pier and boat ramp area would be tabled. 

 

Renters:

Sylvia Sullivan is researching our options to get the rental real estate offices to make sure that renters get a copy of the general rules that apply in Terramar.  Kim Saxon will email her the new resident/rental letter that we have used before. 

 

 

 

Pavilion Committee:

Wanda Greer is going to have her husband John get us some architectural plans so Kim Saxon and Lore Cordell can put it out for bids.  A grand opening celebration with a barbecue was discussed when the pavilion and associated landscaping are finished.  The idea of future fundraisers was also discussed.  A target completion date was set for May 1, 2004. 

 

Old Business:

 

City Business:

Wanda Greer will check into getting the park board to put trashcans back onto the beach.  Doug Eibsen brought up seaweed raking off of the beach.  Wanda Greer said the city or county will not do it because it has been proven to help restore the beach sand.

 

FM 3005 Walkover:

It was brought up that the most westerly FM 3005 walkover is in bad shape.  Bob Bowe made a motion to replace the walkover at a cost of no more than $1000.00.  Wanda Greer seconded it and the motion passed. 

 

Palm Trees:

Bill Aimone questioned the health of the new palm trees.  Kim Saxon told him that it appears one is dead but that the others still have green in them.  Bob Bowe said that Ron is ready for the pipe to put in the sprinkler for the palm trees.  Lore Cordell said she would have Howard bring the pipe down that he is donating.

 

Leaks and ditch mowing:

Lloyd Pepper brought up that he still can not get anybody with the city to mow the ditch that runs parallel to the run that used to go to Lingo’s.  He also told the board that there is a sewage leak at the lift station and the water leak on Chiquita has still not been repaired.  He has called the city numerous times and still there has been nothing done.  He also noted that the city has never patched the street holes at the corner of  Martes and Laguna. 

Doug said that he would email the city concerning all of these issues. 

 

Sign Lighting:

It was agreed again that the sign lights need to be back like they were.  Kim Saxon said that if Lynn King was not able to get them replaced, then she knew two residents that were qualified and would donate their time.  Doug will check with Lynn about this.  A maximum budget was set at $1000.00. 

 

Sylvia Sullivan made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 12:05.  Lore Cordell seconded it.  The meeting was adjourned.
