(virtual meeting)\n<ul>\n<li>Typically on the 2nd Tuesday of the month.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>That would be Tuesday Jan 12, 2021 at 7pm.\u00a0 Let&#8217;s do it!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Planned officers election in July.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Property Issues:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sign\n<ul>\n<li>There are some concerns with the community sign.\u00a0 Possibly some rotting wood and other cosmetic issues.<\/li>\n<li>Understanding is that the ground the sign is on is common property.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Need to organize some time to clean it up \/ repair it.\u00a0 Want to do it ourselves instead of having a 3rd party do it.\u00a0 Allow us to focus money on the shed\/gazebo.<\/li>\n<li>If the sign is on HOA land, we can discuss and vote on it&#8217;s future at the Jan meeting.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>We should be able to address any cosmetic issues before the Jan meeting.<\/li>\n<li>Need an understanding that any decisions about maintenance or changes to the sign area be a group.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Pier\n<ul>\n<li>We should consider removing the old boat lift from the pier.\u00a0 Inoperable and sharp bits hanging off of it.<\/li>\n<li>Floating pier\n<ul>\n<li>Belongs to Bob and Kathy<\/li>\n<li>Question about whether it needs to be power washed, or if that would damage it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Need to replace the life ring.\u00a0 It&#8217;s missing, probably during a storm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Gazebo\n<ul>\n<li>Needs to be reinforced<\/li>\n<li>Needs work on the roof<\/li>\n<li>Worth saving, keeping<\/li>\n<li>Can be a neighborhood effort, don&#8217;t need to hire a 3rd party<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Shed\n<ul>\n<li>Roof has been replaced<\/li>\n<li>Shed needs to be painted, floor redone, 1 window replaced<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Kayak rack\n<ul>\n<li>Would it make sense to put kayak racks inside the shed since it would be more secure, less liability.<\/li>\n<li>Regardless of where it goes, there could be a small fee with a contract to rent a kayak rack slot.\u00a0 Contract would waive liability to the HOA.<\/li>\n<li>Due to size, it probably makes more sense to have it on the outside of the shed.<\/li>\n<li>This is something we could build, but it would be after the shed is painted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pier<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Most recent slip renter has been given a payment plan for use of a slip\n<ul>\n<li>$500 initial deposit<\/li>\n<li>On a payment plan to complete payment plan for deposit by end of Q1 2021<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Should think about swapping the outlet on the pier to a marine grade plug.\u00a0 It would need to be a professional install.\u00a0 We had an issue this year due to water coming up over the outlet.<\/li>\n<li>Makes sense to add a second outlet on the other side of the pier if\/when we do that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Driveway<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Should we call the county to come add some gravel to fill the washout on the driveway?<\/li>\n<li>We can call, but there&#8217;s no way to guarantee they&#8217;ll be out any time soon.<\/li>\n<li>The new house is adding 3 gutters facing the driveway which is going to make things worse.<\/li>\n<li>We need a better solution to the washout, gravel is just a temporary fix.<\/li>\n<li>Going to ask the county to inspect the new house&#8217;s gutters and make sure they&#8217;re compliant.<\/li>\n<li>The current damage was caused by a blockage in Bob&#8217;s gutters that has been fixed, so that shouldn&#8217;t be an issue again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Suggestions from neighbors<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mosquito control has been requested for the pier area.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Future HOA meeting locations: Kiwanis club?<\/li>\n<li>HOA funds should be invested somewhere to earn interest.\n<ul>\n<li>Current funding balances would not generate any significant interest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Officers<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Current covenants:\n<ul>\n<li>Each household has one vote on issues<\/li>\n<li>Only homeowners listed on deed are eligible to be HOA officers<\/li>\n<li>Only homeowners listed on deed are eligible to rent a pier slip<\/li>\n<li>Household must be in good standing (dues, assessments, etc) for a homeowner to hold office<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>We want to try to re-establish a quarterly HOA meeting.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Financials<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There is a desire for more transparency with the financial information.\n<ul>\n<li>Previous method was via minutes from the HOA meetings.\u00a0 Infrequent meetings is causing an issue with this.\u00a0 We need to have more regular meetings to address this.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Questions about whether it would be good to have some sort of online payment system\n<ul>\n<li>Carrie is available by email\/phone whenever anyone needs information<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Question about whether we should have a separate pier account.<\/li>\n<li>Report\n<ul>\n<li>Bank statements\n<ul>\n<li>Checking\n<ul>\n<li>$8587.83 balance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Savings\n<ul>\n<li>$3668.23
