CORRESPONDENCE

The following notes were from the Suggestion Boxes:

Sherry Vincent #309 – Requested that a hot water heater be placed in the men’s restroom at the pool for a warm shower behind the restroom which could also be used to wash pool filters. The Board took no action on this request.

Bernice Tarnow #305 – Inquired about the storage of personal items such as furniture in the electrical rooms. Bill Martin was instructed to direct Dan to remove ALL PERSONAL ITEMS from the electrical rooms.

Bob Sylva #507 – Requested that the tennis courts around the fence areas be pressure washed. Bill Martin was instructed to direct Dan to pressure wash the affected areas on the tennis courts.

Bud Myers #1001 - Requested that the west garage door at the 670 entrance be repaired. The motor on the garage door was repaired in late December.

Cliff & Deanna Snedeker Unit #1003 – Stated that an owner’s pet had deposited fecal matter in the 670 elevator on December 28th or 29th. They have also noticed urine in the elevator and lobby at other times. They requested that a letter be sent to all owners about proper courtesies and cleanliness, requested that the Board pass a motion banning new pets in the buildings and set up a means of enforcement. They further requested a personal reply on the Board’s thoughts about this unacceptable development. The Board suggested that if any owner observes a pet depositing fecal matter and or urine anywhere in the buildings that the pet’s owner be reported to any Board member. The only way pets can be banned from Sunwatch is by a seventy-five percent (75%) vote by the owners at an Annual Meeting. The Board has no means of enforcement other that to write a letter to an owner. It is a Board policy to respond to owner’s comments in the minutes rather that by personal letter.

Cliff Snedeker Unit #1003 – Inquired about a proposal from American Roll Up Door Co. concerning repairs to the east garage door in the 670 building damaged when the door closed on his automobile. Lars Warn stated he would discuss the proposal with Cliff.
