The warranty work from Brannan Sand and Gravel for the 2004 asphalt work needs to be addressed.

Another option would be for the Association to do the work themselves and file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau to recover the cost.

Homeowners present at the meeting discussed the upcoming request for a dues increase and the overcrowded landscaping. Several homeowners volunteered for a phone committee to contact owners to remind them to submit their vote regarding the dues increase.

A proposal to trim 31 cottonwood trees for an estimated $18,600.00 was presented. The Board will review the proposal at the August planning meeting. The owner of 2503 East Geddes Avenue is concerned with the grading around the unit and has offered to pay for rock, fabric and plantings. The Board tabled this request until the August planning meeting, but asked Warren to address the grading issue.

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
