SECRETARY’S REPORT:

TREASURER’S REPORT:

Our account balance as of 12/30/2022 was $25,614.82.

The following bills have been accrued since the last meeting and are presented for payment:

  • $825 to Alessandri & Alessandri, P.A. for completion of FY22 AFR.  To take card, check, or cash.
  • $182 for P.O. Box with USPS, to reimburse Trustee Terri who paid it personally
  • $74.20 TECO (12/9/22 statement), includes $34.63 past due
  • $749.28 to Sutton Environmental Services (November sweeping)
  • $749.28 to Sutton Environmental Services (December sweeping)
  • $475 Big League (lawn for December)

Trustee Terri made a motion to approve the above payments, seconded by Trustee Golson. The board unanimously approves. All recurring, budgeted payments are approved and continue to be paid when due outside of regularly scheduled meetings. 

OLD BUSINESS:

Trustee Osborne informs the board that the CPA (Alessandri & Alessandri, P.A.) has completed the FY22 AFR, and it is ready for pickup.  Trustee Osborne to pick it up this week and get it sent to the County, as well as to upload to the State’s financial reporting system online.  These final documentation steps are the final items to complete the fiscal year.

Regarding the street sign at the main entrance of Taragrove and Lake Magdalene that was hit by a service truck, since the last meeting the downed sign was dropped back off by an unknown person and left on the ground at the entrance.  They are in Trustee Terri’s possession and the board will contact our subcontractor contact to re-install at a later date. 

There was an email communication to the board from Property owner Scott R. who reported that the last street sweeping from Nov. 13th caused a leak of fluids on the ground all over the street.  Trustee Terri has contacted Sutton (street sweeping) to rectify.  Sutton to use a Biodegradeable solution and to pressure wash the area.  It is unclear if this has been rectified yet. 

NEW BUSINESS:

Trustee Golson proposes to approve all recurring monthly payments that have been budgeted for (lawn maintenance, TECO, pond maintenance) going forward, without a vote in regularly scheduled meetings.  Seconded by Trustee Terri. 

Trustee Cincquegrano forwarded an email regarding late payment on our P.O. Box which continues to be sent to former Trustee Fowler.  Payment is due by the 10th.  Trustee Terri followed up with the Post Office and took Ron Fowler’s name off of our Box (#271845) and added his name instead.  Trustee Terri also personally paid the $182 renewal for the box and will be reimbursed.

Trustee Terri was presented with a rate increase on our pond services.  A&B Aquatics service rate increase from $625/quarter to $725/quarter.  Rate increase effective 2/1/23. 

Trustee Terri contacted Team Fischel on the directional boring project as they are updating the bid they provided us last time, to make sure nothing has changed.  To be presented to board at next meeting once bid is received.  

Trustee Terri spoke with our landscape people, Big League, who is working on a quote for the revamp of the entrances as far as plantings and vegetation.  Finalized bid to be provided at next scheduled meeting once received.
