General Office and Budget Updates:
- New Collection Agency (Bonded Assured) is proceeding with lawsuit against a resident at Filing 10, Lot 39 unless a payment plan is arranged (~$6,600 total owed). They also own unimproved Lot 27 in Filing 8. Two other residents turned over to this agency have either paid in full or are on a payment plan.
- November Viewpoint is complete and at the printer. Should be mailed by 11/29/07.
- New board member educational information is provided on new law changes regarding foreclosures within HOA’s
- New GVM map project on hold until county addressing project is done next summer. Need to conserve maps until then.
- We are planning to address/experiment with repainting the basement walls showing the water damage. Research indicates it is not mold, but "effluorescence". (I have literature for those interested)
- All radios have been retuned or repaired by Collins Communications at total cost of $500.
- 1999 Dodge dump truck and 2000 GMC pickup are complete through the body work repairs from last winter’s damage.
Road and Recreation Association
- Riddle Lake repairs done as described in my email to board members.
- Parnassus Ct. culvert and black base applied. Court was rerouted due to property line issues.
- Gate 5 hill has been widened to improve safety on Mt. Harvard Dr.
- New culvert installed and road built up at Crestone and Mt. Harvard to prevent washout.
- Planning to blackbase Gate 3 entrance and fix approach to mailboxes for plowing.
- Riddle Lake mailbox cover is completed and final county inspection passed.
- I recommend that GVM install signs next fall to instruct wandering hunters where the forest and GVM boundaries are. Complaints have been numerous this year regarding trespassing on private property.
Water & Sewer Association
- Two more water main leaks occurred – one in the 4th Filing and one in the 12th Filing. We will need to make Mt. Massive, Sunlight Cir., and Pyramid Ct. priorities for our next deep bury project.
- Pressure tank has failed in the Lower 8th Filing pump house. Replacement costs will be about $1000.
- Septic truck has had one offer of $3500, but the buyer has not contacted us since the offer.
- 9th Filing pump house exterior repairs and repainting completed.
- 12th filing leach field excavated to prevent water runoff and additional dirt added to increase infiltrator coverage. Used leased track hoe from the lake repairs for this project.
- LID vote passed! Meetings with county and state are coming up in December to plan the financing and final design bidding process.
- Old Upper 8th pump house has had insulation and fill dirt applied to shallow pipes to allow us to turn off heat tape there.
Follow-up lead and copper tests in November have shown a 50% reduction since we have increased the ortho-phosphate injection rates.
APPLICABLE COMMITTEE REPORTS
None
OLD BUSINESS
None
NEW BUSINESS:
- Discuss holiday schedules/holiday pay
The Boards agreed to share the cost of employee bonus of $250.00 for each full-time employee and $50.00 for the part-time employee.
Also, provide one additional holiday during the season. The office will remain open on the extra day and the day will be treated like a
floating holiday to be taken at the employee’s discretion.
- Discuss backhoe condition and possible joint effort to replace it: Presently the backhoe is in poor condition and poses a safety risk.
Gary Ellerman informed the Boards that we should be able to find a used replacement for approximately $57,000. The Boards agree that the backhoe should
be replaced. They also agree that the backhoe is a shared asset and the costs should be shared between the Associations. Additional time is needed to decide
how to appropriately divide costs. Further discussion tabled until next meeting.
