Below is the summary of the Board. Please review and I will send. I will not be at the General Meeting, I will be in California. .LPGMA Board Meeting Summary Date: March 19, 2014 Place: Stained Glass Room Started: 10:00 AM End: 11:15 AM Board Members Present: Kate Shumate, Tom Belsan, Ken Sime, Sue Sime, Ken Swensen, and Judy Montgomery Absent: Fran Williams and , Edythe Nedd Guest: Rose Scott LPG Manager Notes taken and reported by Tom Belsan Secretary Long discussion of the activities around the Arson in the community. People are turning on their lights front and back. Police and Sheriff patrols have been around the community at night. Todd had an article in the newspaper. A couple arrests were made but were not related to the arson. Ken Sime reported that the neighborhood watch created a flyer on Monday and had delivered it to all residents by Tuesday evening. Ken Swensen thinks that having two security people during the night would be a good idea. One would be at the gate and one would be on patrol around the community. They would have two way communications. There was a concern that the gates were being left open during the day with no security people at the gate. It was thought that gates should be closed at all times. Ken Swensen reported that after 9:00 PM the security is stopping all cars and getting information. He came in about 10:00 PM and there was a line out to the Street. It was suggested that we have a speaker in September or October, when people return, to speak about security and neighborhood watch issues. There is a call tree being created to make it a little easier to quickly notify residents of issues. Kate asked about scheduling of the board and after discussion we left the meetings as currently held. General the Second Wednesday and Board the Third Wednesday. Kate went on-line and get information about the code for displaying the American Flag and determined that banners with American and Canadian flags appear to be wrong and several veterans are very offended by the banners. There are still questions about antenna placement. Kate hear the office telling an installer that it needs to be on the ground if not possible it needs to be in the back. Of course, the installer could just put it where he likes and leave the park because no inspection is done before he starts or finishes the project. Judy asked if all the Thesman communities had the same rules. Kate said no that she heard that the rules are enforced at Las Palmas. Meeting with Rose: Rose reported that there would be sticker review of people coming in the park. security will be making sure people have current and valid passes and stickers. Rose is going to propose some sort of double gate system so that only one car can come in at a time. She does not think from her experience that cameras are of any help. Extra security at school break time and two guards, one at the gate and one roaming. Rose heard that people who have skin problems from the pool are getting together to determine what doctors have been doing for them to find out if any action works. Some people have been told to make sure they shower after using the pool but just rinse do not wash with soap. Rose requested a copy of the list if possible. After discussion a question about the cover was introduced. It seems that most of the residents effected are in the morning just after the cover is removed. None white doors has been brought to the board by a resident who received a notice and painted their door white. They feel that others of their neighbors who have painted doors are not being given notice or are not complying. Rose said that if she sees a painted door or has one reported they sent a notice, period. Rose is sending out notices for antennas and they can be on the roof but must be in the back. Ken Swensen talked about the issue of big dogs. We know that some have been approved but there is a feeling that some of the big dogs are just not known to the office. Again if the office does not know about the issue and nobody tells the office there is nothing that can be done. People who see possible issues need to report them or forget them but not just complain about it. is
