September 20, 2010\ Board of Directors Meeting

Meeting was called to order at 6:30 pm.

Board Members present were Dave Zeemont, President; Steve Bailey, Secretary; Larry Felhauer and Barbara Rose Farber, Directors at Large.

Also present were William Webber, Design Chair; Maxine Webber, Dave Wright, Gates Chair; and Lamar Harrison.

Minutes from last meeting were approved.

Bob Crowley, Treasurer, was unable to attend and he gave his written report to Steve Bailey to present (see attached.) Six parties have not paid their Annual and Special Assessments and liens are being filed.

Steve Bailey presented Bob Crowley's Erosion Control Committee report. Work has started on reshaping the pond and placing an overflow pipe on Lot 19. The lot owner will place the rock at his expense. Bob met with the owner of Lot 34 to discuss reshaping the pond on the front of the lot. Also discussed the drainage of water from the Wright pond overflow that will ultimately cross that lot. The owner was agreeable to whatever we needed to do.

Bob obtained the Drainage Plan from the Flood Commission regarding CR. He met with an outside engineer regarding sizing the Wright Pond overflow, etc. He (the engineer) will be getting back with Bob regarding flume sizing any day now. We will then size and lay out the drainage flumes and discuss with all property owners affected before proceeding to construct anything.

Bob pumped about three feet of water out of the Barcelona Ridge pond. He also purchased a large gas tank (for about $50) for the pond pump. We now can go for about 12 hours between pump refueling (was about 3 hours before.)

Bob had silt fences placed on Lots 71 and 72 above Sonnet. A complaint was lodged about the color; however, unfortunately, the silt fencing only comes in black. This will be a temporary measure until natural growth returns and reduces the blowing sand currently going on other lots.

Barbara Rose Farber, Landscaping Chair, reported that she had gotten a bid for weed removal for the house on Lot 67. Another bid will be obtained, then Dave Zeemont will write a letter to the owners giving them some options on removing the weeds, which have become a traffic problem.

William Webber, Design Control Chair, reported that an application had been made to raise the building pad one foot higher than normally allowed for Lot 123. Because there are no houses further up the hill that could possibly be blocked, the Committee voted to grant the variance. There was no objection from the Board, with the provision that any erosion problems would be addressed prior to building.

Dave Wright, Gates Chair, reported that the SOS system works (from his monthly testing.) He plans to replace a light bulb at the Anthem/Barcelona sign.

Dave Zeemont reported that the ETZ turned down the application for changing the zoning for the land at the base of the hill (current farmland where Picacho Hills Drive meets Picacho Avenue.) The applicant had wanted to rezone the land to allow business for a portion that faces Picacho Avenue. It will probably be appealed to the ETA.

The next meeting of the Board of Directors will be Monday, October 11th. Please contact Steve Bailey if you have anything you wish to be on the agenda.

Meeting was adjourned at 7:40 pm.

Respectfully submitted,\ Steve Bailey\ Secretary CRNA\ September 27, 2010
