JANUARY 2004

ANNUAL MEETING
There was a very good turnout at the Annual Meeting on January 17th.
(1) Two Board Members were elected.
(2) Concerns of the Homeowners about landscaping were presented.

HOME ADDITIONS/IMPROVEMENTS/PAINTING:
The Construction Request form is now available on the website ?– please see the address above. Remember that you need to get permission for any exterior work visible from the street or from your neighbors?’ front yards.

BELL ROAD LANDSCAPING:
(1) APS has not yet completed their portion of the work on Bell road. We are continuing to work with the City to ensure that they return the area to its original condition.
(2) The utility companies are submitting their proposals for payment for their encroachments on the land owned by the Association.
(3) We have just chosen a new Attorney (the previous one retired). We will have the Attorney review the bids by the utilities.
(4) The homeowners present at the meeting voted in favor of turning the portion of the Bell Road frontage owned by the City into predominantly desert landscaping with boulders and green areas on the corners. Once this attorney has reviewed the options, a special Board Meeting will be announced at which the final decision on Bell Road landscaping will be made. We strongly encourage you to watch the Meeting Notice Boards for the time of that meeting and plan to attend.

NEXT BOARD MEETING: will be held on Tuesday, March 2, 2004. You are encouraged to attend. If you need to have plans approved for new enclosures and/or screening devices please give them to a Board Member prior to this meeting.
**The agenda for the meeting will be posted several days ahead of time in the boxes mounted on the fence behind your mail box. We suggest you get into the habit of checking these boxes for notices.
