5. Committee Reports
A. Architectural Control Committee (ACC). A letter was sent to a homeowner regarding trimming of bushes that were blocking the view of motorists at a corner. The homeowner has trimmed the bushes and a thank-you note will be sent.
B. Parks Committee Report by Annie Berger, Chairperson. Foothills stated that we couldn?’t use matching funds to fix the path and bridge in Wayside Meadows. Matching funds must be targeted exclusively for W. Laurel Ave. Park. A motion was made to dedicate $7,500 to matching funds to be used to repave the walking path in Laurel Park by the playground. Motion was approved.
Bob Easton with Foothills negotiated with the developers of King Soopers for $50,000 for the sale of the 40-foot easement along Wadsworth and behind the homes on the north end of the land. It was also stipulated in the sale that Foothills has final approval on the landscaping to be installed. The developer will be responsible for the care and maintained of the land, but Foothills has the right to oversee maintance. The $50,000 received from the sale of the easement will be given to our homeowners association to be used in our neighborhood on Foothills property! The board wants to give a big note of thanks to John Bradley whose hard work helped to make this all happen! THANK YOU JOHN!
C. Membership/Blockworkers Report by Charlotte Bagwell, Chairperson. Charlotte requested that the board approve money to mail out reminder letters to all homeowners who have not paid their dues. In past years this letter has resulted in approximately 100 more homeowners paying their dues. A motion was made and passed to approve $100 for paper and postage for reminder letters.
D. Traffic Report by Rick Wihera, Chairperson. There have been several complaints about Go-Peds. According to the Jefferson County Sheriff?’s Department, Colorado Motor Vehicle Law requires the go-ped operators have a valid driver?’s license.
The timing of the traffic lights into the neighborhood and on Wadsworth was discussed. The County will be looking into some of the concerns. The ideas of High Visibility signs and speed bumps were also discussed. See Traffic Notes in this Scroll on page for more details.
E. COHOPE Report by Jeanne Schrader, Chairperson. Jeanne stated that COHOPE would be reorganizing in the next few months to help regain its effectiveness. The organization is made up 12 HoAs in the area with 20 members (depending on the size of homeowners association). They will also be starting a newsletter.
Many neighborhoods near the development at Kipling and Ken Caryl are upset because the developer has not followed guidelines given by the county. An extensive report was made by the effected neighborhood outlining all the violations. A couple of the changes were in the removal of the sledding hill and the much higher density of commercial space and many more homes than originally planned. COHOPE asked that our HoA write a letter supporting their opposition to the way the development is progressing. A motion was made for Costa to send a supportive letter. Motion passed.
Due to the size of our HoA, we are actually allowed 2 members to COHOPE. Annie Berger volunteered to be our second delegate.
6. Old Business
A. Kaiser Permanente Report by Joe Hart, Chairperson. The HoA Board met with the King Soopers developers on December 22, 1999 to go over final plans for the shopping area. Joe had the new plans with the revisions that the HoA had requested. Landscaping and fencing had been increased in most areas as requested. On March 9, 1999 the developers will meet with the Board of County Commissioners for final approval. They hope to break ground in mid March and to be open for the Thanksgiving Holidays. Joe stated they would be regrading behind the homes on the north end of the lot in the easement, so if homeowners have anything in that easement they do not want destroyed, they should remove it ASAP. The board wants to thank Joe for all his time, knowledge, and input into this major project in the neighborhood. Because of him, we feel our neighborhood and its concerns were addressed and satisfied. THANK YOU JOE!!!!
B. Upham St. Petition. John Bradley stated the petition is being submitted.
C. Easter Egg Hunt. April 3, 1999 in W. Laurel Ave. Park. The committee is made up of 5 homeowners. Kathy Hofstra of ReMax Professionals Realtors is graciously funding this year?’s hunt. No HoA dues go to the hunt.
7. New Business
A. Meeting Place. Our meeting place at Saint Prances Cabrini Church has been confirmed through August.
B. Columbine High School Scholarship Fund. A motion was made and passed to donate $75 to the Columbine Fund.
8. Meeting was adjourned at 9:40 p.m.
