Meeting called to order: 7:30 p.m.

Approval of January Meeting Minutes:   Approved 6–0

Treasurer’s Report:  Checking account balance is $19,988.73; accounts receivable balance is $3,307.31; two general fund CD’s in the amount of $5,357.01 and $5,340.09; and reserve study CD is $18,601.16, bringing the total to: $29,298.26.

Old Business:

• Commonwealth/Sideburn Holly Trees – The Board considered three quotes for trimming and/or removal of holly trees surrounding the Kings Park West sign at Commonwealth and Sideburn.  We will discuss with the homeowners, who own the property where the sign and trees set, to get their input.  Board voted 6-0 to use Seasons Tree Service.
• Encroachment – Determined that letter was previously sent to the homeowner.
• Waterline Easement – The Board learned that the non-member who ran a gas line through HOA common land in the late 1990’s, also wanted to run his driveway across HOA property, which was denied.  Since the Board could not find any evidence that the non-member had approval from the HOA to run the gas line, we will seek a legal opinion as to any liability to the Board and what options are available to the Board.

New Business:

• Commercial Vehicle Issue – The Board will send the homeowner a letter, and if no change, we will report it to Fairfax County.
• Annual Tree/Encroachment Survey – It is almost time to do the annual walkabout to look for damaged trees and encroachments to HOA property.
• Annual Meeting Preparation – Three Board member terms are up, Linda Fournier, Mark Heppner, and Larry Velte.  Mark and Larry are willing to return for another term, but the Board is seeking a replacement for Linda.  The Board will advertise this opening on the Board in the next Herald.

Hearing no further business, the meeting adjourned at 8:20 p.m.
