Red Rock Ranch Homeowners Association Monthly Meeting
09 April 2007
Presiding: Joline Lee
Present: Joline Lee, Bill Martin, Jim Bergeron, Phyllis Moore, David Bohn, David Weber, Frank Chuba, Fred Lanyon
Meeting was called to order at 1901.
Minutes of the 12 March 2007 meeting were read and accepted as presented. The report was voted upon unanimously after a motion to accept by Frank Chuba and seconded by Fred Lanyon.
Treasurer’s Report: Treasurer Bill Martin reported a bank balance of $9858.53. 100 donations have been received to date for a total of $3725. Treasurer Martin reports that donations are slower coming in this year as compared to this time last year. There was also $25 paid for architectural fees. Phyllis Moore made a motion to accept the report, it was seconded by Frank Chuba and voted upon unanimously by the Board.
Architectural Control: Chairman Frank Chuba reported a resident at 4770 Sandstone called to complain about a fence that was erected on property at 4795 Limestone. The fence is a split rail fence that is authorized on the Ranch, but the resident did not apply for permission through the Architectural Control Committee. Coincidentally, the resident at 4795 Limestone, Sonny Horak, had earlier given Jim Bergeron a small plat of his property with a request to alter the driveway on his property. Chairman Chuba said he will contact both residents about the matter.
Old Business: As of today, there has been no response from Commissioner Wayne Williams concerning road conditions on the Ranch. It was noted that some repair work is taking place on roads in Sundance Estates.
President Joline Lee stated that she has a telephone number and a name for the Parks and Recreation Department, but they are still closed for the season, so she was unable to ask questions about repairs on the tennis court. She was able to talk to another employee who said the County contracts out work for their tennis courts, but he did not know the contractor. President Lee will pursue this matter.
It was felt by Board members that a new net is also needed for the tennis court, but the consensus was that it should be done in conjunction with the patching and painting of the concrete. Member David Bohn agreed to contact the head of athletics at Lewis-Palmer High School to determine where they obtain nets, and the cost of same, plus any information about patching and painting the surface of the court.
New Business: Resident Kelly McGuire agreed to fill the Board seat vacated by Lorrayne Hodge.
The annual RRRHOA picnic will now be held in August rather than September because of weather considerations. The motion was made by Phyllis Moore, seconded by David Bohn and passed unanimously by the Board. President Lee also asked that members mull over the idea of combining the picnic with a yard/garage sale and discuss them at the next meeting. The Association newsletter will be mailed out in July and residents can be advised of the picnic change, as well as what is decided about the sale.
Treasurer Bill Martin reported that the water bill for the park was zero!
With all the moisture and damp ground, watering in the park has not been necessary so far.
Treasurer Bill Martin has communicated with Web Master Jace Campbell about duplication of work. Bill has been sending address changes to Jace and then Jace has to enter them. Now it appears that Mr. Martin will be allowed access to the web site to enter these changes on his own.
It must be noted that the Fire Station was locked and the firemen were on a run when Board members showed up for this meeting. Despite a heavy cool rain, the meeting started outside under the roof of a side door until a fireman showed up ten minutes later to unlock the door. So congratulations are in order for the hearty members who are dedicated enough to carry on despite such set backs.
With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned at 1934 on a motion by Fred Lanyon, seconded by David Weber and voted upon unanimously.
The next regularly scheduled meeting will be at 1900 on Monday, 14 May 2007 at the Tri-Lakes Fire Station.
Respectfully submitted,
Jim Bergeron, Recorder/Secretary
