 OLD BUSINESS

 We have received bids from 3 prospective lawn companies. Roberto was unable to contact a local landscaper he is aware of for a possible bid The landscaper may have moved away. Only 2 of the 3 bids were close to what we pay for current lawn care. We will request additional bids and also request referrals from all companies placing bids. We will pay our current landscape company for 3 more months. During this time we may be able to find a replacement company.

NEW BUSINESS 

A home on Sandywood has a trailer parked behind the house. The trailer must be hidden from view per Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions. This owner previously inquired about privacy fence requirements but did not supply the ARC with the plans. The ARC was awaiting further information from this homeowner.

Harry looked into a no-solicitation sign. He talked with Signs by Mineo and looked at signs at Home Depot. Signs by Mineo could provide a wood custom engraved sign painted and mounted to a 4x4 pressure treated post for $100.00. Pat indicated her daughter could provide her with details from her association about a nice metal no-solicitation sign that is in her neighborhood.

A discussion was held regarding the fence at the end of Lakemont Hills blvd which separates our community and BayLife Church property. No actions were recommended.

Pat mentioned about a street sign being rusty at the corner of Lakemont Hills and Peachwood. The metal post looks tacky. Tom said he would check with the County about having it replaced.

 Welcome Committee’s Report:

Harry has made attempts to deliver welcome packages to some new residents. In all cases the residents have not been home when he tried to deliver the packages. He will continue making more attempts to deliver the welcome packages.

 ARC committee’s report:

A homeowner has requested ARC approval for a roof replacement. More details are requested by the ARC regarding proposed type of roof. There was a discussion regarding metal roofs. The ARC would be open minded regarding the approval of metal roofs on homes as long as the color of the roofs blended in with the community. Roof colors will require the ARC to provide approval on a case-by-case basis since some colors will not be appropriate in our community. The ARC will need to review colors available from metal roof contractors and possibly develop a color swatch/palate. A brief discussion focused on tile roofs. The houses in our development would not support tile roofs due to the weight of tiles.

 Landscaping committee’s report:

None.

Emails: 

None.

The date and time and place for the next meeting was set for Tuesday February 7, at 7:00pm in the Brandon Community Center, as it is now available.
