OLD BUSINESS
Pilot Project for Netafin Irrigation System-Mr.
O'Connor and President Johnson reviewed for the board the history
of the irrigation system and plans for the pilot project at the
south end of Plum Creek Boulevard. It was noted that the pilot
project would be installed after the snow melts. It was also noted
that, if the Netafin system was installed as a replacement for
the current system, as-built irrigation plans would be prepared
and available for future use.
Appreciation Gift-President Johnson reported
he had not been able to locate a glass plum to be used as an appreciation
gift. Mr. Holowinski offered to check with a glass supplier and
Mr. Kramer said he would check on the Internet to assist in the
search for this item.
Directory-The board members thanked Mr. Fife
for coordinating the directory, which was distributed by mail
to Plum Creek residents. General discussion was held regarding
changes and/or updates for future directories.
NEW BUSINESS
Flowers-President Johnson reviewed for the
board the current flower plan - 25% perennials (lilies), 30 to
50% new perennials that would be at a lower height to complement
the lilies, and the balance would be annuals for color. He noted
that planting mostly perennials would reduce the annual cost of
the flowers. Ms. Foote offered her assistance in planning this
year's flowers for the boulevard. It was requested that Mr. O'Connor
check if the Netafin irrigation system would be used on the flowers.
Plum Creek Extension-Mr. O'Connor advised
that five homes in Crystal Crossing were now under construction,
including two models, and final asphalt was being applied. He
anticipates the south end of Plum Creek Boulevard would be open
by the May board meeting.
Senate Bill 100-Mr. O'Connor provided a brief
summary of this bill, which limits certain authorities of home
owner associations.
Irrigation of Property at Entrance-Mr. O'Connor
advised the board about irrigation of two parcels of property
at the entrance to Plum Creek. He noted that the association does
not own these two parcels, but the association is compensated
for the irrigation costs.
Water Meeting-Mr. Flenner commented on the
town water meeting that was held on April 11, noting the water
conservation options presented.
ADJOURNMENT
At 8:05 p.m., a motion was made, seconded, and passed
unanimously to adjourn the meeting.
NEXT MEETING-Wednesday, May 11, 2005, at
