2. Administrative Reports

3. Committee Reports
a) The tile on the (first floor) interior entry of the south wing (the entry with the door) will be installed before the next meeting.
b) Several areas of the building have been identified and will be repaired with concerns to the gutters and waterproofing. Unit owners are responsible for the plumbing inside their unit.
c) Gil will get an estimate from Teco Peoples Gas to have them connect us to a natural gas line and a backup offer from Miami Water Heater for the cost of a tank installed.
d) Instead of painting only behind the hedge, the whole side of the building will be painted after the roof and repairs are done.
e) The water pump on the property will be left as is considering it may not be cost effective.

4. Ongoing Business
James is trying to get a better price for the flat roof painting before it being approved. Jeff Powell has offered to seal the flat roof for $3800.00 with a longer warranty on the project than the previous bid. Nothing has been decided yet.

5. New Business
a) The lien has been filed for back maintenance on unit 11. There has been a lot of interest in the unit and an offer has been presented as far as we know.
b) The bushes will be trimmed away from the building. We need ideas about adding greenery in front of the building.
c) It has been brought up again that a guest living at the building for longer than a week needs to be approved same as a new tenant. Please make sure the prospective tenant adheres to a credit check.
d) The septic tank will be pumped out in August.
e) We won’t meet in June but we will meet the 2nd week of July.
