There was a general discussion of the issues facing the new board - in no order of priority:
Completion of the new Covenants: It was suggested that the volunteer committee which recommended some changes to the proposed Covenants be invited to a meeting to discuss their recommendations. Also, a fresh set of proposed Covenants will be distributed for further discussion and possible incorporation of the committee's proposals. There was also some question about the best format of the document - Microsoft Word with a method of underlines, cross-outs, change bars and color coding - to convey proposed changes from the original. This format will be determined at a future meeting. Brad Sweet has volunteered to lead the final preparation of the new Covenants along with the presentation to the membership.
Common areas: Organize work days to keep the common areas free from weeds and saplings.
Aeration equipment: Find a better way to suppress the noise from the aeration equipment - especially the unit behind the Cole residence.
Westar transformers: Find a method for cleaning up and/or painting some of the Westar transformer boxes in the sub-division. The only restriction from Westar is that the serial numbers and other information no be covered.
Communication to our members: Brad Sweet is volunteering to be in charge of a periodic newsletter. It would be distributed about every three months and probably hand-delivered to the membership by the zone reps and volunteers.
The next meeting will be on October 15, 2018 at 7:00PM. The location will be at Mary Hill's home at 142 S. Forestview.
Meeting was adjourned at approximately 8:05PM.
Michael Ball, Secretary
