had a question about a neighbor who uses his homes fireplace for heating the home exclusively. She

Champagne Lane the new home for sale. The house has a storm drain into the HOA
common area. This is for overflow from the retention well for the roof drain and the property has
an easement for that. The builder still needs to replant where common area was dug up for the
sewer and to build riprap for drain. The house has not had its final inspection, so these items
should be done before approval.
It was suggested that when someone new moves in to the HOA, that the board member closest
to the new owners house provide them info on the HOA.

Environmental Committee: Jim Graham
Dumpster cost update Jim explained why the fall charge was more than spring charge for the
dumpsters. The increase from spring to fall is because fall had 4 more boxes and almost twice
as much weight as spring.
Jim shared the estimate from River City Environmental to clean the common area drains. See
attachment 2. The cost was in the range of $1450-$2000 depending on actual time and
materials. Jim will check on access to drains before we get it done and will report back.
