Pool
Lock and Keys:

city codes and Ed Hartman agreed to have the signs made.
Distribution of the new keys was discussed and Pat Kirk made a motion
that information about the distribution of keys be included in the
notice of
the annual meeting letters sent to all residents. It
was determined that the annual meeting
letters should be mailed at the end of April to notify everyone that
the pool keys
can be purchased at the pavilion beginning
Saturday May 12, May 19, May 26, and
June 2nd. The hours will be
from 10:00 a.m.

should be $15 per key. Bonny English
seconded the motion. Motion carried.
John Ringrose made a motion that one key per lot be available for
purchase to all homeowners. Ed Hartman
seconded the motion. The motion did not
pass. The board decided that property
owners with multiple lots will be able to purchase a maximum of two
keys which
was the decision of a previous vote. The
cost of replacement keys will remain at $25 per key.
Delinquent Maintenance Fees:
Pat Kirk reported that certified letters had
been mailed in November to
property owners that were delinquent on their homeowner’s fees. After a discussion, John Ringrose made a
motion that Pat Kirk should send another certified letter to the
property
owners that did not respond to the first letter. This
letter should include our intent to
foreclose on these properties if no response is received within ten
days of
receipt of the letter. Kim Saxon
seconded the motion and the motion carried.
Standing Committees:
Master Plan:
Kim Saxon reported that some of the
landscaping has been completed. Blue
River is in the process of
removing
the diseased oleanders from the main entrance and when complete, the
rest of
the landscaping will be installed. The
new pool cabanas should be finished before the new pool season. There was an additional discussion about the
roof of the pavilion and the mailbox area and Kim Saxon will continue
to pursue
the replacement of these roofs due to the fading of the colors.. The lighting at
the mail box area and pool were discussed and Wanda Greer will call
West End
Electric to make needed repairs.
Bob
Bowe has agreed to fill out the paper work for a permit for beach
raking.
Dredging
Doug Eibsen reported that Terramar is on the
list for county funds to
dredge our main canal. We have applied
for $275,000 and have agreed to commit $50,000 of our money to the
project. This project would be completed
by the county with the sand being placed in Pocket Park #4 which is
located
just west of the subdivision. The county
will decide in June, 2007 which projects they will fund and Terramar is
on the
list. If selected, the dredging would
begin in 2007. He also reported that the
FishAmerica Foundation has grants available and that Terramar, in
conjunction
with Bay Harbor, has applied for a $50,000 grant.
New
Business:
The need for a special assessment in order to
complete the neighborhood
beautification, improvements such as bathrooms at the pool area and
furniture
for the pool, improving the marina area, dredging, and beach
nourishment was
discussed. It was decided that due to
the increase in maintenance fees which has provided the subdivision
with
additional funds that a special assessment will not be requested for
approval
at the annual meeting.
John Ringrose
asked that any subdivision
maintenance or projects intended for Ron Froncek be provided to him in
advance. Some suggestions were the need
for a plexi glass barrier around the pool gate in order to provide
security,
painting of the Terramar
Beach sign at the main
entrance,
planting of additional landscaping, installing the new pool signs, and
moving
the bulletin board at the mail box area that is currently blocked by
the new
mail boxes.
The board went into Executive Session.
Wanda Greer has called several realtors and asked them to remove their
signs from the main entrance and the common areas.
