Summary
Internet and Travel Updates Discussion
The meeting began with informal conversation between Denise and AGI about internet services, with Denise sharing her positive experience with Starlink. The
participants discussed technical issues with internet connectivity in their area and compared different providers. The conversation then shifted to travel updates, with AGI sharing details about a recent business trip to Korea to evaluate battery and energy
storage systems. The conversation ended with participants joining a call and discussing logistics, including the lack of an agenda and the decision to proceed informally using previous meeting minutes as a reference.
Financial and Membership Review Meeting
The team reviewed financial reports for March and April, with Bob noting steady numbers around 23. They discussed membership data, with AGI confirming approximately
11-12 new members signed up in March, though there was some confusion about the exact numbers due to partial payments. The group also briefly discussed hosting responsibilities and a new banner that Jeff had put up, though no specific decisions were made about
future meetings or hosting arrangements.
Newsletter Distribution and Financial Updates
The meeting focused on newsletter distribution and financial approvals. The team discussed remaining routes to complete, with Chris assigned to deliver from
the US mailbox to Scenic, and Jeff reporting that about 50 newsletters remained to be distributed. The group then approved both March and April financial reports and expenses, noting steady membership around 23 people and significant outflows for mailboxes
and signboards. The conversation ended with a discussion about missing board meeting minutes from the previous April 12th meeting, which had not been sent to all members due to lack of quorum.
Sign Board Replacement Discussion
The board approved the March meeting minutes after a motion by AGI and seconded by Chris. The main discussion centered on replacing the signboard at the
bottom of South Palomar at the Y, with Jeff coordinating the work with Julio for up to $1,800. The group also discussed removing and potentially replacing neighborhood name signs, with Jeff having already taken down most of them and identifying one remaining
sign that needs removal.
New Resident at 36 Loma
The group discussed a new resident moving into a property at 36 Loma Road, with the sale closing for less than the listed price of $6 million. They confirmed
that a misspelled sign on Loma Road had already been taken down and would be redone as part of Jeff's responsibilities. The team agreed to add the new resident's information to Adam's list, though they noted that painting the signs would need to be handled
by board members rather than Adam.
Routing Tasks and Event Planning
The team discussed routing tasks and agreed to postpone further discussion until the routing is complete. Chris reported that he and Calder are actively
distributing routes while in the car, using Pokemon cards as an incentive. The group also discussed planning a barbecue/picnic, with Chris agreeing to check with neighbors on Hermosa about hosting the event there, and the team noted that a previous event at
this location had no issues.
Neighborhood Directory Discussion
The group discussed creating a new neighborhood directory, with Bob proposing to update the current one that is 3-4 years old. Jeff expressed skepticism
about the need for a new directory, citing resistance from residents to sharing personal information and questioning the effort required. The group agreed to discuss the project with Nell, who could handle formatting and printing, and decided to include new
resident information in the upcoming winter newsletter rather than creating a separate directory.
Resident Address Book Update Plan
The group discussed updating the address book for residents, with Denise offering to review past newsletters to identify new residents and create an updated
list. They agreed to include a request for contact information in the winter newsletter and on a separate flyer, framing it as a safety and security initiative rather than just a general contact directory. The team also confirmed plans to proceed with the
SOD spray event, with Trish potentially handling it again as she did last year.
Flyer Printing and Intern Planning
The group discussed printing flyers and agreed on a 5-year plan for reprints. They explored the possibility of getting high school interns to take meeting
notes and assist with newsletters and flyers, with David offering to follow up with more information about potential candidates. The conversation ended early due to lack of quorum, with plans for future road measurements and community improvement projects
still pending.
