VIII.NEW BUSINESS
A. Siding
Ok, I think we finally got it! After a year of research and looking at all types of products from stucco, to siding, to wood shingles, to cement shingles, I like the product from Hardie the best. Hardie and Dixieline have given us a great price of $7.25/board. Each board covers about 2 sq feet. So if we use 4400 sq feet at the D1-14 cottages the invoice would run $15,950 plus tax and delivery. This includes the color baked into the product; 15 year warranty on the paint and 30 year full warranty on the product. Certainteed came in at $8.66 per board, primed. There painted version would be about $9.50/board.
Advantages of cement base product:
1. No painting for about 15+ years, saving at least 3 to 4 painting cycles. Each painting cycle runs about $6,000.
2. No Termites.
3. No dryrot.
4. A+ fire rated
5. Product will look a little different, but a cleaner look.
6. Easy to install & low maintenance over lifetime.
During siding construction we will replace the paper, which is shot, and will replace the insulation with R13. Back 25+ years ago they used R11. R13 will better insulate the building. Another option is to use plywood as backing. This will give some additional R ratings along with some earthquake enhancement. Plywood would run about $2,000 more for the building.
Resolution #6-7-15-11: A motion was made by Steve Maschue to accept the recommendation of the General Manager and use Hardie Siding as the product of choice for re-siding the cottage buildings. Also recommend using R13 insulation and plywood as backing. Siding of D1-14 would take place in spring 2012. The idea would be to wait one year then proceed with 2 buildings a year until completion. The motion was seconded by Joe Garrett and approved 5-0.
B. Painting
It is time to paint the stucco, which has not been painted since 1999, the trim-which was painted about 5 years ago, and the mansard roofs-which were painted about 6 years ago. We have come up with two options to paint the buildings. Budgeted $205,000 for both.
Option #1
Stay with what we have, except change out the green for a brown/earth tone color, which looks very nice. Simple to do; see two examples on the B & C buildings near the office.
Option #2
Change the stucco, trim, and accent color altogether to a sharp looking updated look that has a slight gray/green tint to it. The color matches the new mansard color, which is the color that the Hardie siding comes in. See "G" building near office for example.
Bids to paint the mansard and building;
1. Dynamix Painting$209,800
2. Prime Co$188,990
Resolution #7-7-15-11: A motion was made by Steve Maschue to accept the bid from Prime CO in the amount of $188,990 to paint the 4th floor mansard roofs and the stucco, trim, and accent color of the 10 big buildings. The motion was seconded by Lynn Campbell and approved 5-0. Note: the color will be decided at the next meeting.
C. Solar Energy
Management in currently working on getting bids to perform the following:
1. Solar assist for pool.
2. Solar assist for the hot water boilers.
3. Produce our own electricity.
With the complexity of different types of systems, availability of tax credits, reimbursement programs for non-profits, depreciation schedules, location of panels, funding, etc. management is not ready to offer his recommendation. Two different company's are suggesting products that are not widely in use. One system is $17,500 while another system is $67,000. Doing more research.
D. Remodel of the "A" side, including bathroom
Last meeting the Board of Directors and the homeowners reviewed preliminary plans for improvement to the "A" pool area and common area, which included adding a bathroom. The Board and the homeowners liked many of the ideas, gave their recommendations, and tonight I will have more detailed plans for the area incorporating the ideas and decisions from last meeting. Management presented many improvements to the "A" pool/spa common area. The work was divided into 4 phases, with phase I being the bathroom and shower area, phase II the spa area, phase III included ADA ramping from the elevator to the pool area, and phase IV expanding the deck to the west and south along with expanding the ping pong room by adding a seating area and fire pit.
Resolution #8-7-15-11: A motion was made by Steve Maschue to approve the preliminary plans as presented and proceed with phase I of the project, which includes a bathroom and shower area. The estimated cost to be $63,800. Note: the plans for phase I are attached and are a part of the minutes. The motion was seconded by Joe Garrett and approved 5-0.
E. Waterproof "B" buildings
The waterproofing product for the "A" building so far is working great and very easy to use for the guys. I would like to use the same process for the "B" buildings. Have sand blasting bid from RW Little to sand blast both the big and little "B" buildings in the amount of $16,300 ($3.50 ft).
Resolution #9-7-15-11: A motion was made by Steve Maschue to accept the bid from RW Little in the amount of $16,300 to sand blast both "B" buildings and have Jorge and his crew apply the waterproofing product on the walls. The motion was seconded by Irv Forman and approved 5-0.
