October 7, 2009
The meeting was called to order at 6:10pm. Those in attendance were Jimmy Baes, James Quinlan, Richard Yousoufian, Gil Ellis, Robert Vitrano, Lisa Boccard, and Lois de Oliveira
Administrative Report
1. Line Items discussed at the meeting were the waterproofing and fees for contacting Empire. Waterproofing will be paid half this year and half out of the 2010 budget, and we are still pending a written contract with Empire Electric to avoid incurring charges for emergency calls. Richard Yousoufian in unit 16 or Robert Vitrano in unit 7 are who should be contacting Empire should an emergency arise.
2. As of October 1st the rent for garage #8 is being paid directly to the condo association as
we have not received maintenance for it and unit 11 since last December. The foreclosure should be resolved within the next six months.
3. We are unable to get a better price for the propane to heat water. Solar water would be a feasible idea but we feel it is not in the budget for this year.
4. Item Cut: We won’t have a website anymore because it is going to be cut.
5. The Association needs to be able to enter any unit in case of emergencies. Make sure we have a copy of your key.
6. The budget will be ready by the next board meeting be prepared to discuss any issues you may have.
Board nominations are open until October 20th. If you have any contingencies for being on the board, let us know what we can do to accommodate you. Our monthly meeting does not last longer than one hour and if you cannot make the Tuesday and prefer another day of the week please send a request.

5. New Business
Although Ari’s unit is being actively shown, we will be contacting a lawyer in light of foreclosure proceedings. I will update our website with Ari’s unit “For Sale” along with his phone number.
Richard will contact the city to see about getting more of our sidewalk replaced.

iii. According to the new condo law effective January 1 all unit owners (garages included) are required to carry a hazard policy on their unit, the policy will include the $2000 special assessment coverage. The association must be named an additional insured and loss payee on all casualty insurance policies. Make sure the association has a copy of your policy.
4. Ongoing Business
Ari’s unit is being actively shown and is the only unit in the building for sale.
5. New Business
The entry between units 12 and 16 (only the first floor) will be replaced with a terracotta looking tile. This will be a sample area to get an idea of the cost and look of replacing the entryways. Richard and Gill Ellis will be in charge of the sample area between their units.
