The meeting was called to order by President Craig Ketels at 1900.
The minutes of the 14 July 2008 meeting were read and unanimously approved following a motion by Fred Lanyon and a second by Kelly McGuire.
Treasurer’s Report: Bank balance is $14,768.83. Total donations to date amount to $6,255.00. Expenses to date total $1374.43. Upcoming expenses will be the cost of mailing the Association newsletter to residents and the insurance bill. Treasurer Bill Martin stated that he has not yet received a check from Roland Harvey and Architectural Control Chairman Frank Chuba was not present to report on his contact with Mr. Harvey, as noted in the July minutes. Director Kelly McGuire stated that Mr. Harvey is living in the city of Fountain while renovations take place on his residence on Red Forest Road and that may be the reason a check has not been forthcoming.
Treasurer’s Report accepted unanimously following a motion by Kelly McGuire and a second by Fred Lanyon.
Architectural Control No report this month.
Old Business: Board members Kelly McGuire and Jim Bergeron will meet at the Association Park with residents John Novotny and Carl Gusler at 1300 on Tuesday, 12 August 2008 to discuss what repairs are needed on the fence surrounding the tennis court.
The Association newsletter has been printed after an excellent job of editing and composing by Director David Weber with input from Board members. It was then folded, inserted into envelopes and addressed for mailing by Board members during the meeting.
President Craig Ketels said the picnic is on schedule for Saturday, 06 September 2008 with duties for Board members as outlined in the July minutes.
Jim Bergeron reported trapping one very large gopher in the landscaped area of the Association Park and Treasurer Bill Martin said he has seen no further signs of new mounds.
Director Fred Lanyon stated that the gas drilling by Dyad Corporation at the base of Mount Herman is now on an indefinite hold.
New Business: It was with regret that the Board accepted the resignation of Director Phyllis Moore who has faithfully served Red Rock Ranch for years through her role as an active and insightful member and director of the RRRHOA. President Craig Ketels expressed the feelings of the entire Board when he said Phyllis will be deeply missed, and all of her contributions through the years are sincerely appreciated.
Guest Jim Zalmanek expressed a desire to join the Board and fill the vacancy left by Phyllis Moore. Secretary Jim Bergeron made a motion to accept Mr. Zalmanek as a Board member to fill the remaining term of departing member Phyllis Moore and the motion was seconded by Kelly McGuire. The motion passed unanimously.
With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned at 1943 on a motion by Kelly McGuire, seconded by Fred Lanyon and carried unanimously.
The next regularly scheduled meeting will be at 1200 on Saturday 06 September 2008 at the Association Park which will fulfill the By-Laws requirement for an annual picnic/business meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
Jim Bergeron
Secretary/Recorder, RRRHOA
