Architectural Control:
Chairman Frank Chuba reports no new requests have been made. He has been unable to contact Mr. Gerard Lambe concerning his erection of a garage on his property on Red Forest Road without a proper request. There is no phone listed for the address, so Mr. Chuba has sent a letter to Mr. Lambe via U.S. mail and will follow up.

Old Business:
President Kelly McGuire reports that attorney Lenard Rioth has talked with Trevor Broderick of Mountain Shadow Recovery concerning the property on Spruce Road where recovering substance and alcohol abusers now reside. Mr. Broderick told Mr. Rioth that Mountain Shadow Recovery may not continue to rent the Spruce Road property because of the high rent. Attorney Rioth supplied the return receipt that was allegedly signed by one of the Green’s, owners of the Spruce Road property. That letter was dated 23 December 2013 and signed by one of the Green’s on 06 January 2014.
President McGuire also talked with El Paso County Commissioner Darryl Green on Friday, 07 February 2014 and was told the issue concerning the property on Spruce Road is being staffed.
Articles for the spring newsletter were presented for perusal by Board members. After discussion about mulching, it was agreed to add that it will be done during the spring cleanup in the article written by President McGuire

New Business:
Jim Bergeron presented a letter he received from the Southern Colorado Chapter, Community Associations Institute inviting Red Rock Ranch HOA to join that group. The letter states the Association provides education and resources to members. After discussion, the Board members present felt they would decline the offer since RRRHOA is a member of NEPCO (Northern El Paso County Coalition of Community Organizations) that fulfills the needs of our organization.
Jim Bergeron also received an e-mail with the annual report from DORA (Department of Regulatory Agencies) which he shared with members. There was a question about whether or not RRRHOA must pay an annual registration fee in relation to income received. President McGuire will review the package and advise Board members of his findings and recommended action.
Resident Tom Guenther requested permission to speak, which was granted, and he stated that Shadow Mountain Rehabilitation has already rented a house in Woodmoor and has recovering addicts in place. Mr. Guenther was thanked for his input.
