BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING

July 20, 2011

Seminole County Sheriff’s Office
1225 East Broadway Street
Oviedo, FL  32765
Board Members in Attendance: Ken Hofer, Pete Alvarado and Marylee Kraus
Board Members Absent: Scott Byers and Lou Sposato
Pinnacle Staff in Attendance: Anne M. Smith, LCAM

Meeting was called to order at 7:08 PM.  Quorum was verified.  Meeting was properly noticed.  

OPEN FORUM
Jim McCann of 3218 Lordmall Court addressed the Board regarding his neighbor’s tree that fell on his pool screen enclosure.  Mr. McCann had previously requested his neighbor remove the tree as he felt it was in danger of falling, but the neighbor declined.  This tree was reported to PPM and inspected by two staff members, but it was not visible from the street so no further action was taken.  
 
Leonard Wilson of 1367 Hampstead Terrace explained Grasshoppers is using a 5-foot easement to access the property behind his home.  Since this easement is a drainage easement, Grasshoppers will need to use a different access point.  Mr. Wilson also stated his lawn violations will be corrected in one month.
 
John Ciavola of 3318 Foxcroft Circle reminded all homeowners to lock their vehicles.  This information will also be added to the website.
 
Kathy Pateracki of 1519 Carillon Park Drive advised the common area irrigation appears to be watering more frequently than restrictions allow and also come on at inopportune times (while neighborhood children are awaiting their bus).  In addition there appears to be an ongoing issue with debris in the lakes.  Management will address these concerns with the association landscapers.   Ms. Pateracki also requested an additional “No Parking” sign at the island at the Brighton Park I entrance. 
 
Karl Burgunder of 1565 Gemini Court (Committee Chair of the Northview Project) addressed the board regarding this case.   There is a mediation hearing scheduled for Friday (July 22, 2011) and the board will be discussing settlement authority during tonight’s meeting.    Trial is scheduled for September.
