Minutes from 2/18 Commission Meeting

Enka Village Commission Meeting Minutes February 18, 2010

1. Resignations: Tiffany Salido is resigning as president of the board effective 2/19/2010. Andre Fisher resigned as treasurer effective 2/1/2010. Robin Silver has agreed to continue on board as beautification chair.

2. Treasury report: $446.19 in general account. $5,580.50 in CD.

3. Current Budget issues
a. Insurance on the park/sign. Current rate:$515/yr
We discussed the current plan and the options of dropping insurance altogether or reducing the coverage to just the liability on the park. The policy is valid through March. Those households in attendance voted 8 to 2 in favor of keeping the current coverage. However, we recommend the new board examine the options and different insurers for the following year.
b. Mowing park. $30 biweekly during summer (8-12 times/year)
c. Hillcrest Lights CD.
The CD was previously allotted to cover Hillcrest lights. However, due to the budget shortage, it was voted unanimously (10 households) to put half of the CD into the general account.
d. Assessments
Assessments have not been collected for the previous two years. It was agreed to resume assessment collection.

4. Election and/or reorganization of the board.
It was proposed that we return to the original method of selecting board members as laid out in each of the homeowners deeds. You will find a ballot and full explanation also included with these minutes. Please return ballot by March 31.

Brian Cook and the Coles agreed to coordinate the mailing of the assessments and the ballots.

5. Concern was expressed that residents do not know what the Enka Village Commission is. A full explanation is included in your deed. Briefly, the commission is a rotating group of homeowners who oversee the concerns of the community. Currently, budget issues dominate the agenda, but neighborhood functions and beautification can and have been included in commission works. All homeowners are welcome and encouraged to participate in the quarterly meetings.

We have lost 2 of the 4 signs indicating when the meetings are being held. It is recommended the new board purchase new signs so that all residents can be adequately notified.
