Treasurer’s Report – Jack Watson
Jack described the Finance Committee meeting that met this morning.  GM Sara Dawson recapped the current financial situation. “No further capital expenses are expected for the balance of this year, because of the problem we have with our cash flow.”  Measures are being done with regard to the 19^th Hole to increase our profit margin.  “Using these new figures, it looks like we will end the (fiscal) year with a negative $24,239.”  Each department is looking at what cuts they can make.  The Finance committee will be reviewing the preliminary budget for the next fiscal year.

ACC

1. ACC Resolution was corrected.  A motion was made by Mr. Massey to resend the 1998 resolution – 0404 was rescinded.  The ACC will now be giving variances as needed.
2. The Community Standards Committee is being asked to enforce the rules and regulations as it pertains to RV parking requiring a special permit.  This proposal was tabled until next month, so the Standards Committee can present their stance on this issue.

Linda Cook – Message Therapist:
It was agreed by the Board that our Bill of Assurance states that no private business is allowed in the Community.  A letter will be sent to Linda Cook thanking her for her letter of request.  But, this will not be allowed.

Public Information Line:
A cell phone is available for public information use.  GM Sara Dawson will have this number available and set up for us early next week.  Moved and Approved.
