OLD BUSINESS

Still need to send two letters: one to lienholder, one to Peachwood homeowner.

 

Progress is being made regarding talk with an electrician regarding work on our front sign lighting.

Send letter to Peachwood homeowner, stating receipts of payments received.

 

 

ARC

Roberto to supply Tom with a general form to be included in the next and future newsletter mailings.

 

Crime

None.

 

Welcome

None.

 

NEW BUSINESS

Tom to give Harry and Scott the letterhead.

Decided to table the curbside house number painting until we see the advertisement notices again.

Additional idea for newsletter: watch for Christmas decoration vandalism and theft.

It was decided that charges for additional copies of the bylaws require a $5 fee. Homeowners can print from the website as an option using their own printer at their cost.

There was a problem with  individuals posting their own garge sale signs competing with each other on the day of the community wide garage sale. Code Enforcement indicates communities are allowed 2 community garage sales per year.

Need to report a house on Sandywood to Code Enforcement with rotting soffits.

Roberto is putting together a general ARC form to be included with the next newsletter mailing. We will include a notice that Code Enforcement will be notified if any property is out of compliance.

Noise and loud music has been reported in the community.

Teenagers are loitering in the community.

Homeowners need to trim their overhanging tree branches.

There was police activity at a house on Malletwood.

Residents are to be reminded of Hillsborough County water restrictions to one day per week.

We discussed the use of xeriscaping and centipede grass. Centipede grass may be compatible with FL zone 10. It was asked if we could check with the FL Extension Service to see if a speaker could come to talk about grasses.

 

Email

  1. A resident on Malletwood complained of a band playing loudly nearby. We emailed the resident about the issue.
  2. A resident on Sandywood let us know about a garage band playing loudly late into the middle of the night. This is affecting a number of residents. The community resource officer was to help intervene in the situation.
  3. A board member confirmed that a sink hole investigation on Malletwood was taking place. We will notify the community if we learn more about the property that may be at risk for a sinkhole.
