Mar Cheri Board of Directors Meeting
October 6, 2015
In attendance: Ken Schewietz, Mark Bunger, Mark Moberg, Michelle Egusa and Nancy Krueger.
Minutes from the September meeting were approved earlier.
President
Ken met several times with Greg Anderson, of Anderson Landscape Service. Greg and his crew have dug trenches to drain spring water and runoff water away from the playground and parking lot following Mark Bunger’s plan. Greg assured Ken that our project was inside the city codes and we did not need a permit. Greg is also going to remove the rotten railroad tie wall at the playarea and smooth dirt to a walkable slope. This will finish our contracted work. Other projects include monthly landscape maintenance and removal of the other rail road tie wall replaced by concrete bricks. The Board has decided to wait on those project.
Treasurer’s Report
Michelle reported on expenditures for the month of September, $6,333.81, which includes partial payment to Anderson Landscaping for the drainage project. As of 10/6/15, the checking account alance is $9274.24. The savings account balance, earmarked for pool resurfacing, is $19,675.13.
The Board talked about next year’s budget and assessments.
Pool Report
The Board decided to hire NWPool and Spa Care of Tacoma to handle a maintenance contract for the next year beginning this month. In the past year and a half, Mark Bunger and Makoto Sugiuchi have maintained the pool. Mark Bunger is leaving the Board at the end of his term and we will need professional help to maintain the pool at acceptable water quality levels.We hope that Makoto will continue to be involved with maintenance projects.
Continuing Business
We still have three families that are past due with their 2015 assessments. Several letters have been sent to the parties, liens filed and we have a small claim judgement on one home. The Board is trying to collect these assessments by the end of the year.
Nominating Committee
We are looking for homeowners who want to join the Board next February. We will need a treasurer and a maintenance person. [addendum added by Vicki – we also will need a Secretary and Architecture Chairperson, and someone to maintain the website and email lists]. Call Nancy at 253-941-6390 to volunteer.
Respectfully submitted, Nancy Krueger
