Call to Order:  President Edd Burleson called the meeting to order at 7:42 pm

Present:  The following Board Members were present:

Edd Burleson, President

Ray Walsh, Vice President

Beth Ferrara, Treasurer

Doug Steinberg, Director

Approval of Minutes:  President Edd Burleson moved to approve the 05/17/2010 Board meeting minutes.  Motion passed unanimously.

 Treasurer’s Report:  Tim Dineen moved to approve the Treasurer’s report.  Motion passed unanimously.  Cost estimates have been developed for necessary repairs to the fence on Beach Road.  Paint is peeling from the bottom up, exposing the bare wood to moisture damage.  Several posts have damage at the ground level that will have to be repaired also. This can become very expensive if not corrected early on. 

Resolution of Complaint re Cutting Down Trees without Permission

WPHA Board met with complainant and sent letter to homeowner.

Homeowner responded to complaint from the Board and the matter has been resolved.

Homeowner Survey

Ray reports that there has been some progress on creating this survey, but there is much more work involved in setting up such a project before it will be ready to be distributed.  The goal is to try to have it ready for the annual meeting which takes place in November. 

Beth Ferrara and Jessica Michael will assist – they have experience with the process of setting up a survey.

Ongoing Business

Ray Walsh has sent a letter to the developer, who has expressed an interest in merging Phase I and Phase II to the effect that we would need several financial statements from the developer and the representatives of Phase II in order to even begin to address this issue. 

New Business

Edd Burleson noted that he has received a complaint from a homeowner about people letting grass growth get out of control. The Board will look into the covenant guidelines about grass height and explore equitable and fair ways to deal with this problem.  The Board also agrees to explore the issue of the effect of lack of uniformity of mailboxes on the overall appearance of the community.

Edd Burleson asked if anyone knew where the Shoosmith request stands.  A final decision by the Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors will be made at the Supervisors August meeting. 

 

Doug Steinberg noted that while the size of the deer population is still an issue, now that warmer weather is here the deer seem to be able to get more of their nutrition from the park.  As a result they are doing less damage to plants such as laurel and rhododendron.  There is a concern however, that the deer herd is overpopulated.

Next Board Meeting:  The next regular meeting of the Woodland Pond Homeowners Association Board of Directors will take place on September 13, 2010 at 7:30 pm at the WPSRC.

Adjournment:  Edd Burleson moved to adjourn the meeting of the Board of Directors at 9:36 pm.  Motion passed.
