The meeting was called to order at 6:00pm. Those in attendance were Jimmy Baes, Richard Yousoufian, Gilbert Ellis, Robert Vitrano, and Lois de Oliveira.

1. The Minutes were approved for the 2/17/09 meeting.

2. Administrative Reports

3. Committee Reports
a) Terracotta tile between units 12 and 16 (first floor inside entry) has been done and looks great. Anyone wishing to check it out please do so and send us an email before the April 21st meeting.
b) Painting should be completed this month behind our new hedge.
c) Richard asked about replacing both: sidewalk around the building, and our rusty dumpster. Village Hall advised him sidewalk replacement and dumpsters are not in the budget this year.
d) Robert advised 25 gallon royal palms with a 6 foot trunk plus palm fronds would be about $175.00 each plus delivery.

4. Ongoing Business

5. New Business
a. Under Budget review
I. For our next water heater replacement coming up in a couple of years, an estimate has come in to replace gas with solar hot water. The estimate is for $27,990.00 and would be warranted for 10 years for workmanship and covered materials. That would reduce our monthly $350.00 gas bill.
II. An estimate to paint the north wing flat roof with 4 coats of white ceramic roof paint was proposed for $3,850.00 to make it more weather resistant.
b. Maintenance arrears status to be discussed at next meeting.
c. Gilbert will check on the pump in the NE corner of the property in light of the dry grass this time of year.
