2. Financials:
a. June 30, 2023 is the end of our fiscal year 7/1/2022 to 6/30/2023. The new fiscal year budget was sent out to everyone end of May 2023.
b. The financials are preliminary for the fiscal year. End of this month July our CPA will make some adjustments and then the final for the fiscal year will be completed.
c. Gross revenue was right on target for the year with a slight increase in interest and rec room income. General Liability was higher than anticipated, and federal/state taxes have not been booked yet to the financials. Irrigation cost was a bit higher due to some upgrades to the irrigation system to hopefully reduce costs in future. Water expense was $17k less than budgeted due to better conservation. Gas and electricity were under budget due to a two month pool closure. Overall once adjustments are made the net will probably be reduced by at least $12k—still resulting in a positive to budget net of $10k for the year.
d. Beginning this fiscal year 7/1/2023 the reserve allocation will be separated out so it is clearer what is being contributed to the reserve fund and what is being spent from the reserve fund. There will be a separate reserve report produced for this purpose.
e. One homeowner asked if she could get a copy of the financials to review. The board suggested if she want to review to ask Daniel and he could meet with her in the office. Additionally it was agreed that having a few copies of the financials available to the homeowners during the meeting was okay as long as they were collected after the meeting and not taken outside.
f. A motion to approve the 2022/23 fiscal year financials was made by Diane Kirchner and seconded by Dawn Lucian. The board approved the financial statement.
3. Architectural Change Requests:
a. 5042-B Calle Real: Proposed replacement of existing screen door with a security door. The color will be confirmed. The Board (motion to approve by Cindy Capra and seconded by Mike Porter) approved the changes.
b. 13B N San Marcos Rd – Proposed replacement of 6 windows to dual pane. The homeowners are obtaining a third quote and will then decide. It was suggested replacing one of the upper windows in the living room with an open/close option. A motion to approve changes was made by Dawn Lucian and seconded by Mike Porter. The board approved the proposed changes. The Homeowners will let Daniel know which vendor they will end up using – probably Bella Windows.
