- Structural Improvements: Review of Covenants and Restrictions. Discussion of upcoming projects. As finances allow, the umbrellas and furniture at the pool will be replaced/repaired. Discussion of updating the bathrooms and painting the pool house and signs to match the new tile color.
- Neighbor concerns/inputs. Discussion about geese swimming in the pool. Possibly hiring a trapper or stringing fishing line.
Discussion about making a change to the Covenants and Restrictions to include language that addresses rentals. No short term rentals. For example, the neighborhood is not protected against people that may want to list their home on a site like VRBO.
Please maintain your yard and encourage your neighbors to do the same.
Sallie to email about a food truck for the grand opening of the pool.
