Agenda
Reading of old minutes: Board voted to waive the reading – all had received a copy – voted to accept the minutes as submitted.
Tom Beaton’s request for variances/easements on proposed new garage.
The Member’s request was two-fold: (1) To build his garage to the property line between his and the Association’s, and (2) for an easement of our property for his driveway.
Currently, his driveway and retaining wall is on our property, and an easement
would preclude future expansion of the Boisen Loop Road.
The County Building Department required a letter form the Association,
approving the above, prior to issuance of a building permit.
The Board reviewed all of the site drawings, and reached the following
decision:
Approved his building the garage to the property line. It would not hinder future road expansion, as this area would serve as a shoulder to the road.
The Board was opposed to issuance of an easement to the requested area for two reasons: First, it would have could have precluded future road expansion; secondly, the Board does not have authority to give away Association property or to purchase property on behalf of the Association, only the General Members have that authority. We, the Board would have to await the General Member’s Annual Meeting in August or do a mail-out to all Members. This would have been expensive, and since building time was a factor, we decided not to grant the easement.
The Board did vote unanimously to grant Mr. Beaton the right to use the property until such time as we might need the property for road enlargement.
Mr. Beaton agreed to this stipulation.
This was a good solution for all parties involved.
Dock #1 contains 6 lots instead of 4. June Berquest and Toni Beck represented that dock at this meeting.
Don Sharp gave a presentation as to how, chronologically, this occurred over the past several years, as lot owners acquired additional lots, and thought they were added to the dock – it was quite innocent, however, 6 boats will not fit on that dock.
June and Toni added their input, and the Board explored some possible alternatives, which would require some thought process from the dock owners involved.
The Board voted to table this issue until the next Board meeting, and allow the dock owners to explore the various alternatives.
Everyone appeared satisfied that progress had been made, and wanted more time to explore the solutions.
The next Board meeting has been schedule for April 28, 2006.
There being no further business, a motion was made, seconded, and a vote taken to adjourn the meeting.
