    \n
  1. House painting<\/strong>:  House painting will start in February.  Ursula volunteered to do the walk through with each homeowner for homes to be painted.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Tree Replacement<\/strong>:  The homeowners of homes where trees were removed will be contacted before Spring planting to determine what they want to do regarding replacements.  The TAC will handle.  Reminder:  No trees are to be planted in the front yard without permission from the Tamarac Architectural Committee (TAC).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Parking:<\/strong>\u00a0 Only 26% of HOA members responded to Mary\u2019s request to update car registration information.\u00a0 She will follow up with those not responding.\u00a0 She is keeping a database with this information.\u00a0 A neighborhood patrol is done between 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. several days a week to monitor on-street parking.\u00a0 Mary handed out a notice that will be placed on unidentified cars or vehicles that do not conform to the community\u2019s CC&Rs.\u00a0 After a third violation notice, homeowners will be fined.\u00a0 The Board is considering a change to the CC&Rs regarding the size of vehicles that can be parked in the community due to the vehicle sizes of newer vehicles since the CC&Rs were developed.\u00a0 Sue will draft a statement to send to homeowners to obtain their input before any additional action is taken and will bring to February board meeting for review.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Review attorney letter regarding changes to CC&Rs<\/strong>:\u00a0 There are very specific rules regarding changes made to the HOA\u2019s CC&Rs.\u00a0 If we add any restrictions, or change language, it must be approved by 100% of the HOA members.\u00a0 We can delete language without approval.\u00a0 We are discussing changes to paragraph 6.6 in the CC&Rs if we believe we can get 100% approval from members.\u00a0 To be discussed further at the February meeting.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Neighborhood Directory:<\/strong>\u00a0 The Board would like to have an updated neighborhood directory.\u00a0 Only those members providing information and approval will be in the directory and the directory will only be provided to those who appear in it.\u00a0 Judith will send out an email requesting members who would like to participate to send the information to her and she will produce an updated directory.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Use of excess funds from 2025:<\/strong>\u00a0 The year ended with $14,900 in excess funds due to lower costs than budgeted and fees obtained from the sale of homes.\u00a0 The $1,600 in fees will be added to the operating reserve for 2026 by unanimous vote.\u00a0 The Architectural Committee is in the process of assessing the need for additional gravel needed by some homes in the community.\u00a0 They will determine which homes are in critical need of additional gravel and those with low needs.\u00a0 Also, metal borders between gravel and grass\/turf are rusting and sticking up out of the ground and present a potential hazard.\u00a0 These were installed when homes were built in the 80\u2019s.\u00a0 The TAC will do the necessary research and obtain bids for these items as they have been determined to be the most crucial needs in 2026 that are not in the 2026 budget.\u00a0 These issues will be discussed at future board meetings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Permanent Lighting<\/strong>:\u00a0 The TAC\u2019s guidelines\u00a0 about\u00a0 installing permanent lighting were not followed by a couple of homeowners who installed it.\u00a0 One homeowner did not obtain permission.\u00a0 There is an issue with exposed wiring and the use of extension cords. The TAC will review homes with permanent lighting and will work on the issue further.\u00a0 Painting is an issue with these homes as well.\u00a0 No additional permanent lighting will be approved until these issues have been addressed by the board.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Finance Report:<\/strong>\u00a0 Randy reviewed the December and year-end financials with the board.\u00a0 All are within budget.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      A comment was made to include the Pool roof and painting in next month\u2019s agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The meeting adjourned at 8:32 p.m.<\/strong>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Submitted by:\u00a0 Judith Gardner, Secretary<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
