President's Report

Homeowner correspondence

Locking boxes for next month's agenda.

AAA – trash contractor – service is getting better. We will hold off finding another contractor for now.

Plantings committee – Ron will take over Chairman of that committee and move to get decision made before the end of the year.

Curb painting – Ron will take over as Chairman of this committee. He was told about a local Boy Scout troop who would charge $5 a space for painting. Ron will look into this and see if they have references. Anne and Al recommended starting with Leestone St.

Our CAI membership has lapsed. Ron will be talking to Mohammed about this issue.

There has been a washing machine "moving" around the neighborhood to different curbs. If anyone knows the owner, we need to remind him or her they are supposed to contract AAA for a special pickup.
