Members Meeting - January 13, 2006

New Life Baptist Church

Auburndale, FL 33823

The meeting was called to order at 7:12 P.M. In attendance were: Marie Just, Brian Starr, Kevin & Rose Gervase, Julie Flowerdew, Scott Munroe, Bob & Dorothy Reynolds, Juan Adames, David Brunner, Eric Sigismondi, Bill & Joan Wallace, Dana Robino, Jeff Gervase, Michael & Susan Wasnorowicz and Michele Noriega from Lakeland Properties & Management Inc.

It was noted that David Brunner had tendered his resignation as secretary and board member. Mike Wasnorowicz read the minutes. Susan Wasnorowicz made a motion to approve the minutes. Scott Munroe seconded the motion. A majority of the members voted to approve the minutes and the minutes were approved.

Michele Noriega had distributed copies of the balance sheet and cash flow report to all members present. Mike Wasnorowicz asked the members if there were any questions concerning these reports. Eric Sigismondi asked to verify that there was a surplus from the operating budget for 2005. Mike Wasnorowicz verified that there was about $5000 surplus and that the board was in the process of putting that money in an interest bearing account and would be held in reserve to be spend on unforeseen expenses. David Brunner asked if this year’s expenses would be less than last years and if a surplus could be expected again. Mike Wasnorowicz explained that there were expenses that were not realized in 2005 that would have to be budgeted for in 2006. The budget was reviewed line by line.

Brian Starr gave his state of the HOA message. Items addressed were the common area improvements and liens made and collected. It was also noted that there were some improvements needed such as installing a button on the exit gate and power washing the fence at the entrance.

It was noted that Scott Munroe’s term on the board had expired and the board needed nominations to fill that position. Julie Flowerdew nominated Scott Munroe. David Brunner also nominated Scott Munroe as did Rose Gervase and Dana Robino. Mike Wasnorowicz asked the membership for more nominations. Since there were no other nominations a show of hands was asked for to elect Scott Munroe to the board for another three years. Scott Munroe was subsequently elected to the board for another three years.

Mike Wasnorowicz gave his address concerning what deed-restricted communities were all about. He reviewed the powers, duties and responsibilities of the board. He also explained the responsibilities of the members and recourses that they have.

Brian Starr had composed an information sheet to be distributed to all of the members. This sheet contained the names of all members of the board and associated committees and contact information. Brian reviewed this sheet for the benefit of the membership.

Mike Wasnorowicz explained that since there were a couple of members who seemed to have an issue with the way the board was conducting themselves that a possible solution was engaging Lakeland Properties & Management Inc. to do more of the work in running the HOA. LPM Inc. would take over many of the duties of the board for a fee equal to $204 per year per homeowner. Mike Wasnorowicz noted that unless the membership made a motion to engage LPM Inc. the board would continue doing the work of the HOA in the same capacity as it had been.

The floor was opened for new business. Mike Wasnorowicz asked David Brunner to elaborate on what was happening at the front gate with the community children and their games with the gate. It was noted that the younger children like to enter their codes to open the gate. Repeatedly opening the gate in this manner could conceivable burn out the clutch. Some children like to impede the motion of the gate so that the gate will stay partially open which also could burn out the clutch. It was decided to send each homeowner a letter notifying them of this situation in hopes that parents could talk to their children.

The membership was asked if there was anyone who would like to be considered to be appointed to the board. There were no volunteers. It was noted that the board would try to find someone to appoint and that if no one could be found, a 4 member board might have to suffice.

The floor was turned over to the members. Dana Robino asked about dirt bikes being legal in the neighborhood. Pat Venezia said that the police have no jurisdiction over any traffic issues in the neighborhood. He mentioned how any homeowner could run the stop sign and could go 100 miles an hour in the community and the police could not do anything. Mike Wasnorowicz said that he would check into the validity of that statement and that if it were true then the board would have to look into amending the declaration to address such traffic issues.

It was asked if the retention pond was going to be mowed. Mike Wasnorowicz stated that the plan was to do it one time and for the homeowners to maintain it after that. It was noted that the board was in the process of entertaining bids for this work.

A motion was made to adjourn the meeting by Scott Munroe and Brian Starr seconded it. The motion was passed and the meeting was adjourned at 8:35 PM.
