Committee Reports:

• Gates: Al Shawala reported the entrance gate by Anthem has been fixed both in and out.

• We are having Ramon fix the low wall surrounding the fountain, on the outside of the gate near Anthem along with the fountain. All the lights on the gates are working. Someone had hit the electric eye at the Barcelona gate, Al called Apex, they sent someone out but Al already had fixed the gate so that the gate could temporally shut but when Apex came out and noticed that the gate closed, they didn’t straighten the electric eye. So they will be making a return visit to straighten the electric eye. The party code #5555 is still working and will be on throughout the holiday season.

• Landscaping: Landscaping Chair, Carrie Gaddy supplied the new contract of the landscaping company we are switching to called Extreme Landscaping to the Board for signature. Along the Anthem strip, boulders have been removed and placed at the top of Constitution Rd.; Ramon is replacing the drips along the key pad island and behind the fountain; and there is significant erosion along the east and west side of Anthem which Kelly Dickson is fixing.

Judy Corona asked about the weeds along Barcelona and Anthem and how its maintained. The County owns that property and have been out to mow but we will as for a quote from Extreme Landscaping to possibly spray and maintain the weeds along those streets.

• Design Control: No report. A request was received and sent to William Weber, Design Control Chair for a neighbor to construct an additional garage to their property.
