minutes from 2-26-09 community meeting

From Commissioner Tiffany Salido:

ENKA VILLAGE
HOMEOWNER’S ASSOCIATION
February 26, 2009 minutes

1. Park Donation: City of Asheville declines our donation because of economic downturn.

2. Election/Nomination of new 2009/2010 Commission members. No nominations or volunteers were put forth. We allowed until the end of March for any prospects.

3. Plan for the Spring Enka Village Yard Sale to coordinate with the Biltmore Lake Yard Sale , scheduled for May 30th . This will increase shopping traffic.

4. Tulip Planting a success! Bulbs planted in from of the Enka Village Sign last fall bloomed beautifully this spring. We will all enjoy these for many years to come.

5. Neighborhood warning: There are 2 men in their early 20s in a white pick-up with a white freezer in back of truck soliciting meat sales. Their names are Zack Harkins and T.J. Cormeir, and they sell for Empire Foods. They claim to be local guys who can name many of your neighbors as references. They have scammed some of our neighbors by not being truthful concerning their product or guarantees.

6. Treasurer’s Report: We currently have $1416.51 in general funds and $5538.80 in a CD.


********************A huge Thank You to Emily Sutton Dezio for all of her service to our community. She is stepping down from her 5 year tenure as Enka Park Commission Secretary to concentrate on her new, beautiful daughter Vinetta Rosa Dezio, born April 16th. Congratulations Emily!********************************

2009/2010 Commission: No volunteers or nominations were submitted, and all solicitations were declined. This leaves the current board in the position of having no one to pass on responsibility. Therefore, the current members have agreed to continue to carry out the necessary functions of the board – maintaining the park and lights and collecting the homeowners dues to continue those functions. At this time, we will not hold any more community meetings or coordinate community activities. However, if you desire to volunteer, now or at any point in the future, please contact Tiffany and you may serve in whatever capacity you choose. When the economy recovers, we plan to talk to the city again and pursue donating the park.
