V. BUSINESS REQUIRING DISCUSSION
A.
Street
Sweeping, Street Signage, and Painting Red Curbs
History: The Board discussed the street sweeping issue and decided that the date of the cleaning needed to be changed to Monday. The reason was that trashcans would still be left out on the street on Friday afternoon and it would be difficult for the street sweeping to clean the area as well. The Board instructed Management to have Universal Sweeping change the schedule to Monday from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m. Universal sweeping said they could keep the contract at $60.00 if the day is kept on Friday. Management reported the street sweeping company changed the proposal to $70.00 per visit if scheduled on Mondays. Street sweeping was approved at last months meeting. Management was requested to contact the street sweeper and set up a schedule to sweep 3 times during the month of March, then the board would review if the sweeper was accomplishing the associations goals at the next board meeting in April. Universal Street Sweeping removed their proposal.
The Board requested there be a discussion about installing signs that say no parking on a specific time and date of every month when sweeping occurs. These signs will have proper signage so that the violators can be towed away. Management was instructed to obtain bids throughout the community for signs for the street sweep cleaning. This has not been accomplished as of yet.
Street sweeping was approved at the last board meeting. Universal Sweeping removed their proposal. Street Signage and Painting Red Curbs was tabled at the last meeting.

D. Street Sign at Lenox Place and Duvall – At the request of Ed Karl
History:
For those who weren't here during
the discussion last year, here is a brief statement:
"Homeowners on Duvall Court and Lenox
Place have expressed some concerns
that delivery and emergency personnel are
often confusing the two streets.
Reason: The North side of Lenox Place
actually turns into Duvall Court thus
confuses visitors do not realize that one
side of the street is Lenox Place
and the other is Duvall Court. I seem to
recall the Board discussing some sort of a sign, which would state "Lenox
Place - Duvall Court". The sign
would be posted on the street signpost at Lenox at Duvall. The "Lenox Place" part of the sign
would be on the
west side of the signpost and would have an
arrow pointing west. The
"Duvall Court" part of the sign
would be on the east side of the sign post
and would have an arrow point east. This way, a visitor approaching the
intersection of Lenox Place and Duvall Court
would know that one side of the
street is Duvall Court and the other side of
the street is Lenox Place.
Action Required: Board Review, Discussion, & Resolution

reviewed and approved.

Action Required: Board Review, Discussion, & Resolution
G. Wilcox Sound Wall Maintenance
History: The City of Santa Clara had provided a recorded document to the Board informing the association that they are responsible for maintaining the sound wall. Last month the Board requested management to find out if the maintenance is part of the Landscapers scope of work. Management and Dinsmore reviewed the contract and found out maintaining the sound wall is not part of the contract. The next instructions from the board were then to go out for bid for the one time maintenance of the wall. Management received a bid from Dinsmore, and is waiting for additional bids. (I will update the agenda as soon as the bids are received.) Additionally, Dinsmore has provided a proposal to maintain the wall within their contract.
Action Required: Board Review, Discussion, & Resolution
H. Pool
Concrete
History: The pool deck is in the process of being replaced. The contractor had
spoken to Steve with regards to applying a different finish to the concrete.
The contractor will provide the board a sample to review. The finish is called
a “salt finish”, as described a salt finish has pockmarks in it, it provides
less heat to the surface and also provides the ability to dissipate the
standing water quicker.
Action Required: Board
Review, Discussion and Resolution
I. Replacement Pool Furniture
History: Management took a
look at the existing pool furniture and is recommending some furniture be
replaced.
Action Required: Board Review, Discussion, & Resolution
J. Basketball Standard Policy
History: The Board has requested for management to send out violation letters pertaining to basketball standards within the association. The Board needs to write a policy regarding basketball standards, as the CC&R’s do not speak to them.
Action Required: Board Review, Discussion, & Resolution
The next meeting is scheduled for May 10, 2005.
