The Meeting was held at 7:00 PM at Jan Hughen’s home with Dan Jordan presiding.  Board Members present were Dan Jordan, Neal Mangold, Stan Slutzky, Chuck Cansler, Tom Caudell and Jan Hughen. Absent was Bobbie Goodwin. 

Meeting minutes from October 18, 2004 were approved. 

Financial Report – It was decided that the Association needs a new reserve study that would project needs for capital improvements for the next few years..  Mary will find a firm to conduct this study.

The proposed 2005 Budget was reviewed and indicates a need to increase dues by $30/month to $270/month beginning in January, 2005.

We have received a rate notification increase of $600/year from Reliable Sanitation which will be included in the 2005 Budget.

Mary received letters from Steve Howell about the question of the driveway behind the Smith’s being a “joint driveway” with his property, and from the Meinhart’s requesting that funds be reserved for the possible repair of their wall(s), as there was apparently an agreement from Tom Discher that funds would be set aside for these repairs.  Dan Jordan was directed to respond to these two letters.

Mary reported that she had received an email from the Butler’s requesting her Fax # so that a copy of the warranty deed could be sent to her documenting their purchase of the Chilivis home.  The copy had not been received at the time of this meeting.

The Annual Meeting notification letter draft was approved and will be sent out in a timely manner.  Mary reported that no one had put their names into nomination for election to the Board.  Neal Mangold has spoken with Lee Conn who has agreed to be nominated to replace him on the Board when his 3-year limit is reached in December.

A lengthy general discussion was held on the status of the Walls issues and pending lawsuit.

Dan and Chuck reported on their meeting with the plaintiffs and their Attorney.
            Bobbie Goodwin also attended this meeting.

Specific directions were given to Dan Jordan to deliver to Kathy Dorough on how the BOD wanted to proceed.

Dan made a report on the various Contractor’s bids and on the Engineer’s report about the stability of the walls.

The next Board Meeting is scheduled for December 13th at 7:00PM at Dan Jordan’s home.  The Meeting was adjourned at 9:30PM.

Respectfully submitted,

Neal Mangold, Secretary
