The meeting
was called to order at on Tuesday,
Written
agenda is not available.
[MSP] Meeting minutes of
First
portion of meeting was dedicated to the concerns of the Homeowners present:
Michael
Ferguson: Mr. Ferguson thanked the board for the reply to his letter of concern
about the common area maintenance. He noted that the specs are being followed
better.
Don
Williams: Raised the concern with the goose problem and the mess that they can
create. He wanted to inform the board that there is a group which can come out
and remove the geese. This is done while the geese are molting (they cannot fly
due to missing feathers). It costs approx. $300 and takes about 1 ½ hours. Not
sure whether the geese are euthanized or relocated. A decision needs to be
made, because the birds are a couple of weeks away from the molt.
Rob M.
Work Party: There was a tire in the
lake which was pulled out during the work party. This was taken to the dump and
there is a $17.00 charge.
South lake
weir: There
is a concrete plug about 1.5 feet in from the outlet. We need a pneumatic
chipping hammer to break it loose. Also, the person doing this job should be
harnessed for safety and prepared to get soaked. We need this low-flow outlet
available in winter to handle the larger flows that the new culvert will send.
Rob will get bids on doing this work.
John N.
LUD bill- All homeowners are
individually billed for street light electricity. Historically, the association
got the bill, but some problems were encountered, so now the county bills
homeowners individually.
David J.
Submitted the bill for $22.75.
HLHOA website:
Rob had a problem getting to the
Kendra website. Ray M. paid the $75.00 for registering the www.hiltonlake.org
site which is now up and running. He would like to get an email list to add to
the contact list. There is a message board, where people can post public
messages. Ray would like get a “.pdf” file of the CC&Rs, which he will post
(Fred Farris may have the electronic copy, since he transcribed them a few
years ago. We need an update to the status of the trail.
North lake Trail:
The remnants of the spite fence are
still there. Dave Miles will email Joe Jackels to see about removal.
Tennis Court:
Lock is jammed. Anyone can freely
enter and exit. This continues to be an ongoing problem.
[MSP]- Not to exceed $100 to fix
tennis court door.
Common areas:
We have two bids so far. One from Monty’s Maintenance ($12,700) and one from Everett
Landscape ($11,000). It was noted that, with the current budget, we cannot afford the large bids coming in.
We need to find a way to split it up, over time. Perhaps half
now and half later. A quick check of the budget showed that we could
probably absorb ~$8,000 for this effort, this year. John will contact Chris Van
Horn to get the possible third bid. He was tasked to receive information by
Friday,
[MSP]-
Not to exceed $8,000. Bidders will be asked to modify bids to the two separate
areas on the North lake.
