The meeting opened with Tom presenting information on the ADS repairs, the sanding/painting he is doing plus asked questions regarding paint brand/store to use, accurate color determinations for doors/door frames for the upper 12 units. Home Depot carries the preferred paint (Behrs Premium Exterior, no extra primer-dries too quickly. Judy offered to help with color selections for the 12 units and one building will be done at a time. Owners/ residents need to be aware they must be home at the time of painting as doors have to be left open for a couple of hours during the process. Each building/residents will be notified ahead of time when the painting of the wood frames will begin on their building.
Several garage door gaskets (14 of 48) need to be replaced before painting can begin. Comparative pricing/availability to install will be provided by ABC, Windsor and Garage Doors by Nestor. Further updates/discussion took place on retexturing exterior ceilings on the 03 units (currently just the lower level) and where dead trees have been removed. Noted non-compliances include a fence unacceptably primed with no permission requestedwhich must be corrected andtwo patiosin buildings 21 and 26 that have not been cleaned of dog feces for a very long time - very unsanitary and offensive. At building 16 a unit has 'a forest' growing and the board has decided any plants beyond three feet from the building must be removed.
