President’s Comments (Attachment)
President Ernie Uhr opened the meeting with comments highlighting the
working session of the Board on October 16, 2007. Ernie announced
the Cypress Landing Endowment Scholarship Fund at the Beaufort Community
College has passed the $5000 milestone. Helen Sommerkamp was recognized
for her leadership in this endowment.
Ernie announced the funds have been committed from the Buildings and
Grounds budget to: remove columns and replace the dance floor in the Bay
Club - $6500; replace Bay Club walkway lights to increase visibility -
$4000; and replace the four Cypress Landing entrance flags - $1400.
The president asked that residents cooperate with Buildings and Grounds
efforts to identify opportunities to share spaces in the storage lots so
the residents on the waiting list can be accommodated.
Ernie announced the formation of an Ad Hoc Community Tree Management
Review Committee to develop a Tree Management Program that preserves the
park like setting of the community. The committee will recommend
changes to existing policies and guidelines taking into account the
needs and concerns of individual property owners. It will also
prepare an information document which identifies trees that are suitable
for this community and climate. Bill Lord will be the Board
Liaison.
Ernie reported that the Board plans to vigorously pursue funding in the
near future for the Bay Club Handicap Access Driveway. The Board
believes a super majority of the Cypress Landing Community is willing to
approve funding for the Bay Club Handicap Access Driveway and intends to
call a special meeting of the Homeowner’s Association to vote on the
required assessment.
Open Forum
Dan
Bergbauer’s question concerning the Golf Ad Hoc Committee was delayed
until new business.
Jim Kloiber raised a point in regards to the HOA Annual Election of the
Board of Directors. He believes the election is flawed because all
residents did not vote for four (4) candidates. He would like a recount.
The Board will not do a recount.
Reg Smith asked if there were three (3) bids received for the proposed
Handicap Access Driveway. The answer was no. Reg feels that
the B&G should explain why.
