The Board had some discussion about the future water issues and costs with regards to maintain the ponds every year. The Board will continue discussion on this at a later date. The Board briefly discussed the options of recycle. It was researched several years ago and the recycle bins would have to be placed on parking spaces, thus removing more parking from the complex and it was decided that the parking is so limited now that the Association could not afford to lose anymore spaces. It was discussed that there are recycle bins off of Parker and Florida at the Albertson’s store.
