- Meeting called to order by Mike Harrison at 3PM
- Approval of the May 15, 2020 Board Mtg. Minutes: Hank Moved approval, David 2nd and all approved.
- Financials, Dues & Budgets – David presented well thought out projections of the financial positions of both associations. He reported that the reserves (Investments + Savings + Checking) are adequate in the short term, but the boards need to revisit the estimated future costs and potential timing of septic system & parking lot replacements.SW2 just installed a septic system at a cost of over $85,000 that services 8 units. Both associations have approximately 9-10 units that still function on systems installed back in the early 80’s. With more accurate estimates there needs to be a discussion around the current dues structure and whether they are adequate to meet future needs. If projected reserves won’t meet projected needs then dues need to be raised accordingly or use special assessments as the need arises. Fred was asked to provide the board with updated estimates on septic, parking lot and Painting to David well before the next meeting in the Spring. The boards agreed to devote a significant amount at their Spring meeting and present their findings to the owners at the 2021 annual meeting.
- Association Dues A/R – Fred was instructed to start the collection process on an overdue account.
- Edward Jones Report – Hank reported no significant change in either SW 1 or SW 2 accounts. As expected, the market continues to fluctuate but on average both accounts are up slightly over 2019 at the end of October. SW 1 has a balance of $140,785 and SW2 a balance of $141,359.
- Hawk Construction Update – Fred reported that Hawk Construction completed the touch up painting of the 100-106 complex and is in the process of replacing a window in unit 104. Based on the cost to touch-up the paint on the 100-106 complex, both associations are looking for a bid to do all complexes next spring. On the SW2 side they have ordered the replacement 11 rotting door jams. This should be completed within the next 2-3 weeks. Sugarwood 2 has asked Hawk to do damage control on the remaining door jams and paint all exterior doors next spring.
- Resort Update – Fred reported that they have gone into a complete shut down that began on October 1st with dramatic layoffs. This shut down is expected to last through April.
- Other: Mike Harrison has announced his intention to leave the board of SW2 as of the annual meeting this spring.
