Ralph Steiner called the meeting to order at approximately 7:05 PM.

The Board Meeting was held at the law offices of Daughtry and Scott, located at 17044 El Camino Real.

Connie Boggan’s letter of resignation was accepted unanimously.

A motion was made to appoint Jim Rosinke as a Board of Director, in place of Connie Boggan’s remaining term.

Homeowner Forum:

Pat Butler spoke on behalf of the homeowners in attendance regarding the perimeter fence along Brittany Bay Blvd. She told the Board that the original fence was torn down and the existing fence was then installed. She feels that if there is a Fence Easement, then the Association should be responsible for maintaining the fence.

The Board responded by informing the homeowners present that the association’s attorney told the Board that they had the right, but not the responsibility to maintain the fence. The documents do not specify “obligation”. The Board could not make a decision regarding the fence tonight, but would set up a meeting with the association’s attorney to discuss the fence and make a decision in the near future. The reserve study shows the life-span of the fence as being 25-30 years.

Ralph Steiner excused himself from meeting at 8:00pm.

The homeowners were concerned with the look of the fence once pickets are replaced in various places. A homeowner mentioned that the sprinkler system and weed eaters may be causing some damage to the fence. One homeowner referred to minutes from the February 2001 Annual Meeting, where it mentioned the reserve account for fence repairs.

The Board suggested possibly abandoning the easement and giving it back to the homeowners.

Summary: letters went out asking homeowners to repair/replace fence. Homeowners believe they do not own the fence. Board will go back and re-address with attorney and find out what needs to be done. The Board wants to do what is right for the “association”.

The minutes of the November Board meeting were tabled until Ralph returned.
