SUNWATCH ON ISLAND ESTATES CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION, INC. Board of Director's Meeting January 28, 2002 CALL TO ORDER President Ben Givens called the meeting to order at 8:45 a.m. Board members present were Bob Burwell, Ben Givens and Lars Warn. MINUTESMinutes of the November 28, 2001, meeting were approved as presented. FINANCIAL REPORTThe December 31, 2001, Financial Report was reviewed by Secretary/Treasurer Bob Burwell. He reported a positive cash flow of $19,730.77 for calendar year 2001. He further highlighted some of the variances from budget for the year. Two owners were delinquent on their monthly assessments and five owners were delinquent on late charges. Ben Givens instructed Rampart Properties to follow the Declaration of Condominium for Sunwatch XII Assessments Section 1. which states "All payments on the accounts shall first be applied to interest, then to any administrative late fee, then to any costs and any reasonable attorney fees incurred in the collection, and then to the delinquent assessment." MANAGEMENT REPORTKay Strehle reviewed the December Management Report. CORRESPONDENCEThere were no notes from the Suggestion Boxes. Vince Vincent #309 -Sent a letter with advice from his past experience regarding reserve requirements. He also stated his objection to using a professional firm for a reserve study as he felt the management company should review the reserves. He further requested hot water at the pool shower and a soap dispenser. The Board stated that the reserve study issue will be addressed under New Business. The hot water issue was rejected several months ago as too costly. Kay Strehle was instructed to place a soap dispenser by the pool shower. Sheron Nichols #809 - Sent a letter dated January 24, 2002, requesting the Board's policy to parking control and garage usage. Bob Burwell stated that he had sent a letter of reply stating that the Board has no policy with regard to parking control and garage usage. Automobiles may not be towed by law unless signs have been placed on the property warning that automobiles not parked in the correct spot will be towed. The Board had decided several months ago that towing signs would not be posted as there did not seem to be a major parking problem that could not be resolved between owners. If an automobile is parked blocking an entrance or exit, an attempt should be made to contact the owner of the vehicle and if no result contact the management company. SALE AND LEASE APPROVALS
