Barry Prince once again spoke about the Spa Renovations and advised the members that the Board has come to a decision on which contractor was going to be awarded the job. The final and lowest proposal came in from Davale Construction, Inc. at $106,077.00. The proposal was given the POA’s attorney to draw up a contract for review by the Board and for signing by the contractor and the Board. Mr. David Orfinger, from Davale Construction, was invited to the meeting to discuss the project with the members and to field any questions the assembly might have. After a short presentation, several questions were asked by both Board members and those owners in attendance and answered by Mr. Orfinger.

Bob Dow then put forth a Motion, that, pending final signing of the contract by all parties, we accept the proposal from Davale Construction so that Mr. Orfinger could begin the process of obtaining the necessary permits in order to proceed with the project. It is hoped that work could begin in early July and be finished by Labor Day. The Motion was seconded by Tony Scorsese and passed unanimously.

Old Business

The following issues were discussed:

· Publication of the new telephone directory. Fifty six owners had not yet submitted a request to be included. A panel of four Board members was assigned to contact each owner to obtain their permission or exclusion.

· Betty Hirshberger wanted to know if an owner was delinquent in their maintenance payments, could they rent their unit? Bob Dow responded, “no”.

· Water Zumba at the pool will be continued on Saturdays between the hours of 9:00 AM to 10:00AM.

· The Rules and Regulations Book is being updated. Not only Board members but all unit owners are responsible to enforce the rules when they see them being broken.
