Bridger Creek
Subdivision Community Association
Special Board of
Directors’ Meeting
Wednesday, August 3,
2016
The meeting was called
to order at 8 am. Board members: Sharyn
Anhalt, Dian Bottcher and Karin Jennings were present; Dorick Savageau was absent.
Dissolution of Association
For background, see minutes from July 3 and June 6. Karin
updated the Board on her discussions with Chris Saunders, acting Director of
Community Development (aka Planning) regarding process steps should the
membership vote to dissolve the Association. The Board discussed pros/cons and
processes with its Attorney, Eric Nord, via phone. Following discussion, the
Board agreed that pursuing dissolution of the Association by bringing a vote to
the membership is not the best course. All agreed it is unlikely to pass given
the requirement for 75% approval from the membership and the low percentage of
ballots which are typically returned. The Board discussed reviewing a
streamlined set of Covenants and will request one from Eric.
Opening on Board
Bill Ranard stepped down
from the Board on July 13th due to the amount of travel he has been
enjoying during his retirement. From Bill: “Effective with this writing, I
submit my resignation. Given the amount of travel we do, I find that I am no
longer an effective contributing member of the board. Thank you all, especially
Sharyn, for the outstanding work you do for the BCSCA.”
If you are interested in
serving on the Board by completing Bill’s term (to May 2017) please email bridgercreekboard@gmail.com.
Design Review
Dave recently reported
via email to the Board that plans for new construction of a single family house
on Lot 2, Phase 1 (1007 Boylan) were submitted, reviewed and approved. The
owner will be mailing the review fee to the Association.
The Board received and
reviewed the landscaping plan for new construction of a single family house on
Lot 4, Phase 3, which were approved. (House and site plans were reviewed
previously by the Board on June 15th.) The review fee has been
received and the Board approved all plans for this lot, including the requested
variance for secondary roof pitches (shed roofs at 3:12 pitch).
Drainages on Augusta
(Phase 2)
Karin reported that she
received a call from neighbors to the drainage between lots 22 and 23, stating
that it is not draining properly. The neighbors first called the City, who was
very responsive in sending out a maintenance crew to clean the clean-out. This
drainage, owned as common space of the Association, was never installed with
proper slope to convey water from Augusta to the Golf Course by the Developer.
There are a total of 3 Association-owned drainages in Phase 2. Following
discussion, Sharyn made a motion to determine whether the City will
require a permit for any work done on the drainage, then determine what work
may be required to fix this and any other drainages that are not working
properly, and submit a proposal to the Board; which passed unanimously.
An engineer would be needed and bids for the work would be obtained. Karin
volunteered to head this up and will report back to the Board on findings.
Phase 3 Park Disturbance
As an update to the
minutes from the July meeting, Karin mentioned that the Phase 3 park and trail
have been nicely repaired/replaced by the City (City’s contractor) and she
communicated “thanks” to the City via email. We will need to keep an eye on the area for
weeds over the next couple of years due to disturbance.
The meeting was
adjourned at 9:15 am.
