Old Business
*Neighborhood Watch Program – Joseph explained we
needed about 35% participation, which is 70-75 homeowners, approx. 8 block leaders will be
needed. A background check is
required for participants, 2 meetings a year is recommended, signs will be
posted at both entrances to the neighborhood if the Neighborhood Watch
program is adopted. Joseph hopes
to have the program moving in the next 60 days. A flyer will go out for the initial
meeting. People interested were asked to send email to the Board.
*Entrance Signs
A picture of the first draft
was passed out. Lights were
questioned, electric is available, but a variance would be needed for
zoning. Approx cost was questioned, and was agreed to move forward to get
costs. There was consensus to continue with the sign project if the budget
allows. Follow up information
will be on the website.
New Business
*No Soliciting Signs – Board decided to give out the
small 3”x6” signs to members instead of charging $5
*Community Garbage Service – Jennee
Proposed to have one service for the whole neighborhood
to cut down on the amount of trucks, days that containers are left out. One pick up a week for garbage, and
one day a week recycle. Tucson Trash Haulers and Waste Management have been
asked for quotes. When the information is collected, the homeowners will be
notified and it will it will need to be voted on. A member questioned if in
the CC&R’s it was stated who you must use. The answer is no, but we will
look further into it to verify.
*Trash Can Storage Location
CC&Rs state that they need to be out of sight,
members were asked if they mind seeing them on the side of the houses. It
didn’t appear to be a problem with the members present as long as it’s
not abused and kept neat. We will send a reminder of the CC&R’s in the
newsletter.
*Boy Scout Curb Address Painting - Keith explained the Boy Scout Eagle
Project, we are looking into having this done for all homes through this
project. We would be required to pay for the materials but not labor because
it is a community service project. Members
present were very enthusiastic about this. Information will be sent out
through the website and newsletters.
*Annual Garage Sale:
Members were asked if they would like to have them
twice a year instead of once. Yes
Members present would also like to have community
BBQ’s – twice a year.
Open Floor –
A member asked a question regarding the easement along
the curb and the rocks that some homes have in the easement. It was explained that the County owns
the street and curbs. There is an easement 6 to 8 feet beyond the curb that
is reserved for utilities and pedestrians.
It should be kept clear for pedestrians, utilities and overflow
parking. Homeowners updating
their landscaping are asked to keep the easement clear.
Sidewalks were questioned, but there isn’t room
because of the water meters, utilities, mailboxes, etc.
Online payments – we are still investigating but are
considering it.
