Pool Report
We have identified that the pool drain covers have expired in age and need to be replaced. We will have to hire a diver to install. The new drains will have a seven-year permit life. The cost of the drains will be $650 plus $150 for instillation.
The social event on the 3rd has assisted in kicking off pool memberships and pavilion rentals. The board discussed two pavilion rental inquiries.
The board discussed options for a trashcan at or near the pool. Further investigation of options will be investigated
Landscaping
Dan sent cancelations with current landscape company and SMC starts beginning of May. Palm trees in pool have been removed and the tree on Bolivia has been trimmed.
Deed Restrictions
Pending May’s meeting.
Security
Hope and Johanna posted security notice to Facebook. Hope pulled all security reports to identify trends in crimes but did not find anything that showed patterns. There are reports placed on Facebook but they are not reported to the police. Hope and Dan requested bids for placement of cameras in the neighborhood. It was determined that the pool is the only place we could place cameras due to power. One option offered solar power cameras that could read license plates but would not pick up pedestrians. Due to the cost, inability to place in traffic areas and the lack of reporting to and response of the police regarding of the crimes in our area the board has elected to review this option in the future.
The board will investigate if neighborhood cameras would assist in lower insurance rates.
Hope will contact Homeland Security to get their opinion on best options to improve safety in the neighborhood.
