- Treasurer’s Report
- Total Assets $106,317.82
- We have spent about $12,000 already this year. Having the 30 trees (on Adams) removed, stumps ground and then the 30 replaced has been a big expense.
- All but 4 lots have paid their dues. Letter will go out to those.
- We won’t be seeing any money from the Miller home on Stonebridge that sold at sheriff’s auction in October.
- Maintenance and Landscaping
- Our landscaping quote is the same as last year, despite it being more work.
- The new tree work is underway. The new 5-6’ trees will be more hearty for this area. More drought and disease resistant. Waiting for better weather for the planting.
- Discussed sprinklers. If we were to go to the expense of the sprinklers, we take a risk that the county could destroy it again.
