Annual Meeting date is set for May 7th.  Chris stated that we have barely made quorum in the past and suggested that we offer the $25 discount for those who attend the meeting.  We as a board discussed this, but rejected it for a couple of reasons; 1) If we offer it one year, it will set a precedence for future meetings witht he expectation it be offered and 2) The price of the discount (approximately $4700 at 75%), while we could afford it it wasn’t worth the cost.

Colleen asked whether there was a way to streamline the proxy forms (modernize the process).  We decided that since a signature was required on the form, we could continue with the paper forms.

Compass will handle the annual meeting minutes and check in.

Regarding the payment due date for dues, we agreed to extend it to May 10th.  This date will allow homeowners to pay dues at the meeting.

• Parks - Bob briefed the history of the south park and ran through several options for installing a bridge that would connect the East and West sides of the park.  The bridge option he recommended was by Rescue Rennovations for $20,533.  The board discussed this proposal and determined that in their options there wasn’t enough usage/support of the south park to warrant spending this amount of money.  Bob will “go back to the drawing board” for more less expensive options and will solicit the level of support at the next annual meeting.
