Recap of YTD income and expenses was reviewed. The report will be posted on the website. There are currently 19 outstanding homeowners who have not paid their dues. The two board members voted to have liens filed immediately on all delinquent accounts. One homeowner owes over $4900.00 is delinquent dues and non compliance fees and has a lien against the property. The renter of the property contacted the bookkeeper in February and implied that they would bring the account current but no payment has been made.
Insurance policy for officer and board member liability was reviewed by board member Kerry Abington and was approved by both board members for annual payment. Kerry will review the liability policy for the common property and make sure the policy covers the needs of the HOA.

New Business:
A discussion was held that the covenants which are 20 years old should be reviewed by the officers and board members to make sure that they are that are current to today’s issues.

The issue was tabled and the discussion will continue at the May 12th meeting.
