2014 Budget

1. Entrance maintenance – Ms. White shared her knowledge of the historic costs and the anticipation of doing some overdue makeovers.
2. Line item for storage facility – Various board members responded to the need because of community property (signage, holiday decorations, etc.) being stored in personal residents and the lack of access when those residents are unavailable, board members change or people move.
3. What happens if resident(s) disagree with budget – Ms. White responded any reasonable item would be tabled, discussed, and if deemed appropriate, the budget would be amended. No specific matter was tabled.
4. Budget approved by unanimous vote of the 2013 Board of Directors.

Election of 2014 Board of Directors

1. Cedar Management was advised by legal counsel that at the second round of voting, a quorum would consist of 30% of lot owners. A quorum was represented at the meeting by owner and by proxy votes.
2. Andrea White, Kim Christenbury and Cindy Wood were on the ballot. Karen Lewis, John Anderson, Bob Fitzgerald and Lucy Paul were nominated from the floor.
3. Ballots were cast and submitted to Cedar Management representatives for tallying. Andrea White, Bob Fitzgerald, Cindy Wood, Karen Lewis and Kim Christenbury were elected to the HOA Board of Directors for the 2014 term, effectively immediately.
4. The vote was protested by John Anderson.

III. Miscellaneous

1. 9000 Kentshire – a resident questioned the encroachment on HOA community property. The Board noted they have tried to settle the matter amenably without success and that the matter will need to be addressed through legal means.
2. Front Entrance – several residents asked about the tree removal and road construction at the exit. Ms. White shared what she knew about the status of the storm water project: the tree stumps will be removed, the road is temporary access for heavy equipment, start and end dates are unknown. She maintains contact with the Project Manager and will communicate updates as they are known.

Meeting adjourned 7:55 p.m.

Addendum – December 13, 2013
At the December 4 meeting, 53 votes, in person or by proxy, were counted. A review of attendees identified an owner who now owns 2 lots due to annexation, but who’s vote was only counted once. The addition of that 1 vote results in a total count of 54, or 60%, eligible votes cast, therefore, a quorum was met.
