8. Hot Water Heater Reconstruction (5 min)
Discussion (All)
Rachelle reports that the reconstruction is finished but there are issues.
1. Not a hole, screw, tack mark was puttied- anywhere. Holes were left and painted over.
2. The cabinets, flooring, etc is dirty/dusty. We are not sure if ServPro will return to clean.
3. There were at least 4 boxes of flooring left that were taken by, we think, the construction company McGuinesses. We have requested it be returned.
4. Someone needs to install the new window blinds

11. Year End Letter (5 min)
Discussion (All)
Action item to be removed.
12. Celebrate Alpine summer event (5 min)
Discussion (All)
The Monroe Festival announced their date would be moved to June 24 which is the weekend after our planned date of June 24th. We don’t think having the event in the same month would be a good idea- too much confusion. It was suggested we move to May- possibly move in doors if needed.

Tabled
14. New Business (5 min)
On Weds 02/01/2023 Rachelle informed the Board that the back bathroom Hot Water Heater was leaking. Melissa dropped by and called the contact number on the heater. It was covered for 5 years. After some discussion the Board determined that the heater was over 5 years old so a new one needed to be bought. The new heater was ordered and installed by Board Members.
