4 houses for sale, 3 of them already have contracts.

Update on the Homeowner Association’s signs that need painting. Green Link provided an estimate of $750 for each sign; Certa Pro offered $900 for both signs motion to accept this bid and hire the painter.

The homeowner at Lot 51E spoke about notice regarding the non-compliance of her house siding color. This homeowner expressed unhappiness of feeling like she is being unfairly singled out. She wanted to know the reason for escalating this issue and why she is being singled out. She sees this as a possible dividing issue with the association. She is asking the board not to go forward on this. In response, the Board told the homeowner that inspections of other properties have occurred and other violations cited and enforcement is underway. The board is enforcing the covenants and that she is not being singled out. She was first cited for being non-compliant while she was a Board member when all Board members had their houses inspected. The AERC committee cited violations on other Board members as well. There have been efforts to come to a mutually agreeable solution.
