The Association started this year $25,000 over budget, and therefore had to ask some of the committees to cut back. But fortunately, with extra care and some cuts, we are happy to report that we are, as of now, under budget. One factor in this was the projected totals of reserve spending did not actually get spent at the budgeted levels. However, the next Board will face having to address the situations with the sidewalks, trees and streets. The Board has focused on compliance issues (policies and procedures, ALCC issues, etc.), as well as bylaws adherence. The Board also focused on the refurbishment of some capital improvements, in order to maintain their value.
OPEN FORUM: The following matters, questions, comments, etc. were brought up and/or discussed: Reminder: This Sunday we will be having our tropical themed party, and as of now we have 114 reservations. We will be having a Community Coffee Klatch in October, so neighbors and new residents can meet and mingle. The Holiday Party will be held at the Stockdale Country Club more details will follow via the website and newsletter. Question: When will entrance at White Oak be fixed? The Association has received a settlement check; we are waiting for signed contractual agreements for work to begin. Question: Will Kelly Management be asking for a rate increase? The Board has asked for a revised/enhanced 2012 Operating Agreement with Kelly Management, which has been submitted and the Board will be reviewing it shortly.
MANAGEMENT REPORT: Patrick Kelly reported the following: Reminded everyone that it had placed personnel (Terry Lopez) at the Ridge Oak Club House, on a trial basis, to be an on-site contact, to help facilitate contact between the Association, the Board and Management. The Board has reviewed the situation, and has determined that this arrangement is not working out in the Associations benefit. Management now has direct dials for the Board and homeowners to reach Management. The direct dial for Debra Wolf is 616-4382. Terry Lopez is no longer available. Reminded homeowners that part of their monthly dues go towards the in-home security alarm systems. And while security personnel currently drive around and through the complex on a daily basis, they cannot be effective if the homeowners do not arm their in-home security alarm systems. Also noted that some of the home security systems are not working. The individual homeowners should
