{tab=Arch Control}
Architectural Control:
Architectural Control Chairman Frank Chuba presented a request from Paul Tillotson at 18250 Spruce Road for a detached garage on his property. Mr. Tillotson is not certain when and if he will erect the building, but did have a diagram of the property and location of the garage, paid the required fee, and said the garage would be the same color as the house with a matching roof. It was noted that the lot is a corner lot on Spruce and Sandstone and there was discussion about the proposed garage following setbacks as prescribed by El Paso County. The Board does support the proposal pending approval by the County and will send a message to them, if necessary, stating the Board’s position.
Michelle Miller presented plans for a dog fence at the rear of her property on 18145 Forest View Road. It will measure approximately 90 feet by 100 feet and will not be visible from the street. The proposal was unanimously approved following a motion by Frank Chuba and a second by Jim Zalmanek.

Old Business:
Director David Weber requested permission to purchase a quart of paint to cover the trim on the Nevins’ Park pavilion. He also stated that resident Mr. Kevin Guy contacted him to seek permission to dump one more load of scrub oak branches (about half a pick-up truck full) on the existing pile at the Park. Both requests were approved after a motion by Jim Zalmanek and a second by Fred Lanyon.

New Business:
Director David Weber stated that he has turned on the water in Nevins’ Park and set the timer on the drip system. He also reported that there are five dead bushes in the garden area.
The Board expressed thanks to Mr. Weber for raising and lowering the American flag in the Park on Memorial Day.
President McGuire gave a report from Mrs. Lucy McGuire about the annual garage sale on the Ranch. The sale was a qualified success with about 20 participants of whom 13 paid to be included on the map. There were 7 sales on Friday and Saturday, 5 on Saturday only, and 1 on Sunday. The actual profit was $3.27.
Director David Weber suggested writing a letter of thanks to Mrs. McGuire for her efforts and will compose a letter on behalf of the Board.
Director Craig Ketels was excused from the meeting so he was not able to give a presentation about chipping the branches brought in during the clean-up weekend. However, it was his intention to ask for three bids to do the chipping and the mulch will be piled on the west side of the tennis court.
