Treasurer’s Report:    AT presented a YTD report.  HW moved; KL 2nd and it carried 4-0.

Landscaping:  A neighbor on Woodbrook Lane has advised that a tulip poplar on our property is in danger of falling on his property.  Ellice Stern has had our arborist look at it and agrees it is diseased and should come down.  The cost to take down the tree and remove the wood is $400.  HW moved to have this done; KL 2nd and it carried 4-0.  This action is subject to approval by RA.

A tree on common property at the rear of Michael Buchner’s home is too big for the space and is preventing full enjoyment of his and his neighbor’s property.  The cost to remove is $150.  AT moved to remove the tree, pending approval by RA; 2nd by JH and it carried 4-0.

Maintenance:  Kurt Lane and Jeff Bohnslav will install the stop sign this weekend. 

Social:   The cluster annual picnic is scheduled for the afternoon of Sept 11th with a Sept 12th rain date.  More information to come.

Homeowners’ Concern:  

1. Matt Miller requested that the board send a letter to the DRB stating that the standards at the rear of the homes are slated to be reviewed and requesting the DRB grant an extension regarding Matt’s rear lights.  Cate Fulkerson volunteered to walk it through an approval process.  Kurt Lane will draft a letter for all board members to sign.
2. Mickey Alford-Lane spoke on the continued issue of guests, service people and residents ignoring the 15mph speed limit on Woodbrook Ct.  Judy Holmes suggested that the board send a letter to any resident who was observed speeding.  The letter would request they be more aware of their speed for the good of all residents, particularly children.   Kurt Lane suggested that a friendly reminder letter be sent to each resident specific to this issue.
3. Dogs off leashes continues to be a problem.

The meeting adjourned at 9:50 p.m.

The next regularly scheduled meeting of the board is Sept 16th; however, it may need to be rescheduled due to lack of a quorum because of board member travel.

Respectfully submitted,
Judy Holmes
Secretary, Board of Directors
