1. Comments
LourLee spoke about a Yard Sale in
November in the gated area. She will be sending
out ballots for people to vote on
whether they are in favor of the yard sale and solicit opinions.
2. Minutes from December 2012 board
meeting: There were no additions or corrections.
Art moved to accept the minutes,
seconded by Dave. Motion carried.
3. Treasurer's report: Anita gave report. Treasurer’s report was accepted as read.
4. Old Business
We still have several committee
positions to fill. Dave Allmendinger was appointed chairman
of the Common Area Committee. He
needs at least two people to volunteer to be on the
committee.
We still need two members for the
ACC, one to fill Ernie Lamb’s unexpired term and one
member to fill a two year term.
Peter Wangsness offered to be on the ACC if no one else
could be found.
CPR class. 37 people signed up but
Dave is running into a problem with the person who
offered to teach the class not
returning his phone calls. The planned date for the class
was Feb 28.
5. New Business
One item of concern submitted for
the Annual Meeting had been deferred to a regular board
meeting. The concern was the pile
of firewood in the Common Area. Pete said that he would
fabricate a stand for the firewood
so it could be neatly stacked. There were several comments
that followed suggesting we should
have get togethers around the campfire like we used to
have.
There was a discussion of weed
control in the common areas over the summer. Everyone
had been very satisfied by the job
done by Jim Hartman this past summer. Jim said he would
do it this coming summer for the
same price as last summer. Art moved to have Jim take
care of the weeds in the common
areas, seconded by Pete. Motion carried unanimously.
Anita mentioned problem of ATV’s
being driven in the washes. Discussion followed as to
what could be done. The washes are
private property, therefore anyone not from the gated
area or RV park is trespassing.
The police have been called but appear to be unwilling to
do anything. Suggestions made were
to try to photograph the trespassers and also to try to
follow them to where they lived and
turn that information over to the police.
Art discussed the problem with back
taxes he is dealing with. He expects to have the tax
issue resolved in 30 days. When
questioned about what would happen if the tax issue was
not resolved, he said that the back
taxes had been paid prior to lots being sold so everyone
has clear title. The plans for the
RV park are to reduce it to 70 sites with the remaining 75
lots to become “Snowbird Hill”
with lots being sold and moving the upper gate to include those
lots as a new section in the gated
area. A suggestion was made that the LOA might want to
expand to include Snowbird Hill but
the LOA has gone on record as opposed to that even if it
were permitted by our Articles of
Incorporations and CC&Rs.
6. There being no further new business,
a motion to adjourn was made by Art, seconded by
Dave. Motion carried and meeting
was adjourned at 7:47 PM
7. The next meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 13, 2013 at 7:00pm.

Respectfully submitted,
Mary Glazman, Acting Secretary
