Bill Stitt from Bouchard Insurance detailed the insurance coverages our community has. You have insurance that covers the interior or your home. The community insurance covers the structure of the building, the exterior and the roof. It also covers common areas of the community. Basically everything outside of your home.If you have a mortgage, your bank may have requested copies of the declaration page which summarizes coverage of the master policy of our HOA. Bill Stitt can get you a copy. Email him at BillStitt@BouchardInsurance.com. If you are shopping for homeowners insurance, he can also with an agent who can help.
Other issues we dealt with included approving a new sign that will go onto the pool cabana spelling out the rules for the pool area. We discussed bids from landscaping companies and companies for pond maintenance. We discussed how to enforce the ban on street parking and the problem with garbage left outside the dumpsters.
(That's not an official account of the minutes from the meeting. They are just my top-of-mind recollection.)
We also adopted a policy to make sure we notify you earlier about meetings. Although the law says that HOA board meetings require only 48 hour notice, the board agreed that that was too little.
The aim is to post notice of meetings at least seven days in advance of the meeting. The original posting may not include the meeting agenda. If not, it will be added in time to comply with the 48 hour notice requirement.
Speaking of notification of future board meetings, the next one is scheduled for October 27 at 7 p.m. It is the annual budget meeting and will happen at the same church that has hosted the previous two meetings. I'll post the address and a map when we get closer to the date. If you don't want to wait, check this blog's archives and you'll find it there.
