Committee Reports
Beautification:
Jean reported that John Blazier of All Brite Landscaping had installed the plants purchased from
Greenbrier Nursery as per the design by Doug Jessey of the Greenbrier at the left hand side of Hunting
Hills Drive at the Starkey Road end. The landscaping is a great improvement here but some plants show
some distress due to extremely high temperatures and may need to be replaced in the fall free of
charge from Greenbrier Nursery who warranty their plants for one year.
The grass at the entrance at Rte 220 and Crossbow is being mowed each week for $45.00 by Mr.
Shrewsbury who will be billing the Treasurer each month during the growing season.
Proposals from John Blazier of All Brite Landscaping and Keith Dunbar of Lawn Barber Landscaping
were presented by Jean & Irene. These were discussed in detail and it was decided to accept the
proposal from Keith as he was willing and able to start work by the end of this month with a general
clean up of all the common areas and a continued maintenance service throughout the year for a lower
price. Keith has been maintaining Irene’s yard well for some time and several of our homeowners use
his service. He is well recommended and hopefully all of our homeowners will see a marked
improvement in our landscaping and the maintenance of our common areas.
Jean Summerbell reported that Dr. Okeyo, our horticulturist, has been working on our common areas.
Mulch has been purchased and some plantings. More will be done after the sign is completed. Any
unauthorized signs posted on our common areas will be removed promptly.
Club Liaison:
No report.
Government Liaison:
Joe said there was nothing to report at this time. Unfortunately, by the time he hears of anything
relevant it has usually progressed beyond the point of any intervention by our homeowners association.
Membership Report:
No report from Beth Mead. Whitney will liaise with all the District Representatives to find out when any
new residents move in to their areas so that our welcome package and directory can be delivered in a
timely manner.
Security & Safety Report:
No report.
Streets and Lights:
No report.
Old Business:
None
New Business:
None
Any other business:
The City & County will be doing recycling at their transfer station on Rte 460 near Hollins Ave. Details will

Next Meeting will be Thursday, 12 October, 2006 when we will need to select a slate of officers for 2007
