TREES ALONG STREETS: CC&R Landscaping requires that two of the twenty-four inch box trees be installed in the front ten feet of the Front Yard of the Lot. Some people have taken this to mean ten feet from the property line, not within the easement. The Town of Queen Creek would like the trees in the first ten feet from the pavement to create a shaded tree look for the streets. Discussion followed. The Board rejected having trees moved to this position. Future landscaping and placement of trees will be handled by the Architectural Committee and placement mutually agreed upon.

LANDSCAPING CONTRACT: A bid from San Tan Landscaping was brought before the Board. After lengthy discussion, additional bids are being sought.
Motion: by Brad that we Table this discussion until the next meeting and seek additional bids to cover more of the work and the watering system.
Second: George
Vote: in favor, Unanimous

PLANS:
Two plans for homes and one for landscaping of a back yard were submitted to the Architectural Committee. The landscaping plans were approved. A meeting of Mr. Shontell, arctitect, and other committee members was held to review some issues with one of the homes. These items were resolved.

WEEDS: Most of the lots with weeds have been mowed. Kenn negotiated a group pricing system and he feels that most lot owners now realize the sensitivity of the issue.

CC&R ENFORCEMENT: Many of the violations or omissions have been resolved. There are still some issues with walls, water retention, RV trailers, signs and failure to get plans to the Architectural Committee. We are seeking information packets from HOA attornies. These should be available by the next meeting.

SPEEDERS: Speeding on Via del Palo was discussed. It was concluded that the violaters are mostly Circle G homeowners or contractors.
Motion: Marjorie moved that George, and Ed Cooper visit a Circle G HOA meeting and explain the problem and ask them to encourage their homeowners to obey the speed limits through our neighborhood.
Second: Karen
Vote: In favor, Unanimous

LANDSCAPE at 196th STREET: The board discussed the removal of a plant that is between the light and the QCRIII sign. No action was taken, this was tabled until next meeting.
Landscape at Sossaman New plants were installed and the board received notice that they should be watered by hand for five days, the communication was over a week old. No action was taken.
HOA dues: The board discussed the possibility of raising the HOA dues. It is felt that this may become necessary to persue legal action against Lot owners who do not comply with the CC&R?’s or who are in arrears in fees and dues. The matter was rejected for the time being. We are making an effort to work with each neighbor and encourage compliance.

Next Meeting:

Will be 18 April at Burnell?’s 22884 S. 194th St. at 7:00PM

Minutes as recorded not accepted.
Marjorie Burnell, Secretary
