Yvonne Anderson brought up the daily opening and closing of the pool due to weather.
Yvonne Anderson also brought up the garden close to 2709 E Fremont Place. Iris plants have been removed and there are no replacement plants. Jennifer Stokes, who has previously cared for the garden, advocates to sod the area.
Reece brought up the special parking pass needed for “parking during school days during the hours of 7am- 3pm on S Knolls Way, south of East Geddes Ave intersection. The Board investigated and found the parking is within the Arapahoe High School Parking District, which requires a parking permit from the city during school days and hours and encompasses both sides of S Knolls Way south of the East Geddes Avenue intersection.” Reece advocated the pass remain in place due to safety concerns. Margie Nowick states “she is in contact with the city of Centennial. There is a planned review of the Arapahoe H S Parking District, hopefully in 2026.” Warren offered that previously high school students contributed a lot of trash. No decision regarding parking will be made until the City’s evaluation is complete.
Tom Zukas is asking if our maintenance staff has tasks that volunteers could perform? Such tasks as weeding and painting steps. Warren Deutsch responded that snow removal from the north facing sides of garages on the garage apron is the homeowner’s responsibility. Maintenance staff have fulfilled this responsibility for a few homeowners. Also, homeowners are able to take care of their front bed areas such as weeding.
John Bringberg asked about a semi-annual community work day for volunteers to clean up around our property. A short discussion of the idea ensued.

Major Projects-
Yvonne Anderson advised the 2026 budget will begin working on by the Board on July 15. Once that effort is made we will be able to evaluate if a dues increase is necessary. It looks possible a small increase will be needed.
Board positions are available for less than the full three-year term. Those who may not be able to commit for a full three year term the open positions are ready to be filled. Yvonne Anderson advised we are looking for committed members to fill the Board.
Maintenance- Warren
Warren Deutsch advised DES Pipeline is waiting on a piece of equipment, a transporter for the camera. This will make the job work smoother for them. Warren believes they may finish the job this month.
One homeowner replaced the sewer under their basement slab due to back-ups.
Warren advised Metro Pavers was unable to perform the contractual crack fill due to the lateness of the season. He fully discussed the crack fill as needed with some cracks over an inch wide.
