THE RIVER OAKS PLACE COUNCIL OF CO-OWNERS, INC.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 25, 2010

MINUTES

 

 

 

The Board of Directors meeting for River Oaks Place Council of Co-Owners, Inc. was called to order at 7:05 p.m.  Those present were David Brashear, Ruth Simmons, Sandra Stettler, Lindsey Word, Neil Koenig, and Jackie Wright representing the managing agent.

 

HOMEOWNER FORUM

 

Those present were Tom Fox, Wilson Barbee, Mae Holm, and Luis Salinas.

 

Tom Fox addressed the Board to inquire about the budgeting process and the reserve study.  Management advised that the budget is based on past expenses, planned projects, and necessary repairs. Capital projects are not part of the annual budget so the reserve study does not come into play.

 

The Board answered a question from Wilson Barbee regarding whether or not an owner can rent the pool for a private party, stating that it is not allowed because it is an amenity to be used by all residents.

 

Mae Holm expressed her concerns with landscaping, and the Board explained that recent  improvements have been made by Juan, and they reported that the contract with Young Professionals Landscaping is scheduled to terminate effective at the end of August.  Landscape Management Services (LMS, Inc.) will take over all lawn care effective September 1, 2010.  Juan will then become responsible for all landscaping care at River Oaks Place, other than mowing, edging, and care of grass throughout the complex.

Motion was made, seconded and carried to approve the minutes of the August 4, 2010 Board of Directors meeting and Executive Session as written.
