MINUTES   June 13, 2005

The Secret Woods Homeowner’s Association Board Meeting was called to order by President Sally Wnuk at 6:30 at the conference room of the Skinner Branch YMCA.

The following members attended:   Horst Paphal, Sally Wnuk, Jim Thompson, and Wayne Williams.  Resident Byron DeLong also attended.

Sally opened the meeting and read the minutes.  The minutes were approved as read.

In the absence of the Treasurer, Sally Wnuk gave a brief  treasurer’s report indicating that 15 Homeowners have not paid their annual dues as of this meeting. Valerie will have all of the report updated by the annual meeting next week.

Under Old business, information was received regarding the use of a management company to handle collection of  dues and  enforcement of  covenants and restrictions.  Very few companies handle Homeowner associations but one estimate was received which would cost the association $8,800 per year.  The board would still meet and oversee the management plus handle repairs, contractors for pool, landscaping and other projects.

The mayor’s matching grant project for perimeter fence restoration has been turned in by Bonnie Cowling and appears to be in a favorable position for approval.

The pool is in need of repairing and or patching.  Estimates of costs are pending.  The future need for complete Marsite or other finishes also was discussed.

The annual meeting plans were finalized as it will be held at Southpoint Baptist Church on June 20, 2005 at 6:30 PM .

The Board is still in need of a new member due to the former Treasurer Tom Bozak moving.

Under new business, the pond at the Tiger Hole Rd. frontage is in need of repair.  The pump is not operating and the estimated cost of replacement is $1500.  The weed control will require some extra effort by a sub-contractor.

The meeting was adjourned at 7:30 PM

The next meeting is scheduled for July 11, 2005
