Activities Director – Ann Jones

She is also working on a Charter for Clubs of Falls Run.
Property Manager – Sylva Southwell
See attached report.
Special notes per discussion of report:
Item #3 – Finance committee will review and make recommendation to the Board.
Item #7 – Completed. Special thanks to Jake Bernard
Item #9 – The 2 proposals for concrete work are for additional handicap ramps at the Center and to reset column at Middlebrook gate.
Item #10 – Jack Mounds, Chair of Communications Committee, redrafted spec sheet.
Item #11 – Pending. Sylva will provide options
Sylva has been in contact with the developer next to the Legend gate. It was reported earlier that Del Webb constructed the left Legend monument and installed a light on the developer’s land. That land has been developed and is now sold; therefore, an easement granting Del Webb use of a portion of that land must be obtained from the developer. The light post must be removed. Sylva has contacted Jon Coker of Del Webb and is awaiting his response.
Property & Grounds – Cindy Horan, Chair
Janie Cendric met with our landscape contractor Shenandoah to discuss his plan for replacing trees and shrubs. The Shenandoah proposal as presented was not accepted. They re-evaluated Shenandoah’s original replacement proposal which resulted in a dramatic savings in cost. Not all trees and shrubs that have been removed will be replaced. Janie Cendric as a Master Gardner is knowledgeable about planting and landscaping. The P & G Committee will present a Request for Action to the Board later.
Treasurer – Mal Malo
Mal reported receipt of a letter from our auditors Goldklang, Cavanaugh & Associates. They have been unable to complete our tax returns or audit due to a lack of response from Koger Management in Fairfax. The letter notes multiple inconsistencies in the financial reporting by Koger Management which our auditors have been unable to resolve.
In a conversation with Kevin Cavanaugh of Goldklang, Cavanaugh & Associates, it was agreed he and Mal would go together to Koger’s Fairfax office on Monday October 23, 2006 to gather all requested information. A copy of the auditor’s letter will be forwarded to Jeff Koger.
Mal also reported on his conversation with Chris Ryan of Del Webb regarding the Cox Cable contract. Del Webb has been receiving a percentage of subscription fees for enhanced services beyond the basic services subscribed to by Falls Run residents. Chris Ryan will sign a release and those dollars will come to the Falls Run Association. It could bring in an additional $10,000 per year in revenue.
Dan Owens asked for assurance that we have a tickler file set up to monitor contracts and their renewal/expiration dates. We do have such a system in place controlled by the Finance committee.
Mal Malo moved, 2nd by Nancy Arnn, to convene in Executive Session at 10:00 AM to interview prospective management company representatives. Carried unanimously.
The Board reconvened in regular session at 1:40 PM after interviewing the three finalists recommended by the Finance Committee.
