January Meeting Notes -

Board of Director's Meeting Minutes

• Stephen Tilson sent a letter offering to do an audit of the balance sheet for $1,800. This is not required by the bylaws and seemed geared towards HOAs with much larger budgets and more amenities. It was rejected unanimously by the board.

• Fence proposals for the fence surrounding the retention pond were received from MRP and Profence. The Profence proposal was rejected due to it lacking any details such as staining the fence, using screws and using three support boards instead of two. The board unanimously decided to accept the bid from MRP provided they add information on the type of gate they will provide. Earline will contact MRP about the gate.

• The grass behind the retention pond is supposed to be maintained by the City of Round Rock and is not being cut. Earline will contact the City of Round Rock concerning this.

• The pump in the retention pond has been replaced and attached to the existing pipe. The wiring has also been properly run so the manhole cover can be closed. There is a control box that will be locked to prevent people from tampering with it. EMS included tax on labor on the bill.

• John will contact them about removing the excess tax and re-billing the HOA. A refund of $2,300.31 was received from GTL for the incorrect pump.

• Due to the pond being stagnant, there is a bunch of algae sitting at the bottom of the now empty pond. It was decided to get bids from other companies since GTL and Naylor have done such a poor job of maintaining the pond. Earline will contact TCEQ (?) to get a list of companies authorized to do this type of work.

• The bill for the new trees/crepe myrtles still hasn't been received.

• The hedges in the entryway to the subdivision are blocking the lights meant to light the area. They will be trimmed back far enough to allow the lights to illuminate the Eagle Ridge signs.
