81) Meeting and discussion with Hans (CEO Blue Ribbon) and David (maintenance manager).
a. Year in review
i. Pros/Cons & Expectations – First, discussed receiving credit back on some flowers that
died, the original bid for $1,500 Blue Ribbon will apply 25% credit for flowers on next bill
for replacement of the flowers. Second, initially there was a problem with brown spots
in grass due to the sprinklers not being turned on early enough. Blue Ribbon agreed and
addressed the issue and will make sure the sprinklers are turned on as soon as the water
comes in. That being said, not all of the brown and dead grass was their fault, the city of
Kuna had issues with the high volume of water usage and their pumps and water supply
were unable to keep up with the demand in Crimson Point for much of the summer.
With the new contract, Blue Ribbon will be out every week from June through August to
make sure there are no issues with the sprinklers. They have also proposed to have the
same person come out for any service calls we made need to have addressed. It was
discussed that there be two tree pruning’s, one already set up in the spring, and a
partial pruning the week before school starts. Also discussed was snow removal, ACHD
said that they would be making one pass through the subdivisions this year, if that does
not happen we can keep Blue Ribbon on call to come out as needed.

retain Blue Ribbon pending receiving the updated contract, motion was seconded and passed

other alternate ideas instead of a splash pad and pool that were submitted.

HOA Board Meeting Minutes
July 11, 2017
1. Call meeting to order 7:12 pm
2. Establishment of quorum with board members Phil Branstad, Sarah Baker, Justin Smith and Angela
Stark. Also in attendance Michael King, Bridget King, Jolyn Bearden with Shelterwood Homes.
3. Meeting minutes for June meeting approved by board electronically on June 13th, 2017.
4. Phone call from the HOA’s attorney Chris with Vial Fotheringham regarding the status of the fair
housing act and the pool rules Intermountain Fair Housing Council (IFHC) is challenging. Chris advised
that the rules are good, but to avoid possible litigation from IFHC the HOA may need to make some
concessions (like changing some of the wording regarding age requirements). The issue is all about age
based. The rewording could involve “competent” swimmer. Board was concerned about how this
would be determined. IFHC wants the focus to be on competency/ability, not age. Board thanked Chris
for his call and told them they’d like to hear back from him when he hears back more from IFHC.
5. Pool Monitors – mid season review
a. Debbie (current pool monitor) came in to talk about how monitoring is going. Discussion over
the pool rules and specifically the age limit part. Debbie shared some instances of kids coming
unsupervised and very young age. Also said there are individuals jumping the fence in the back
corner where there is a blind spot in the security cameras. She also mentioned she has
received a lot of positive feedback from homeowners when she is working about how they like
having her there. Homeowner had suggested the pool monitors wear official shirts so people
know who they are. Also, they need a cone or sign for when they need to enter bathrooms at
times when they need to replace TP or paper towels during open pool hours. Board approved
both getting them shirts and signs. It was suggested to rename “pool monitors” to “property
monitors” for next year to help the conception that they are not there just for the pool and
they are not life guards.
6. Danny with Blue Ribbon came in to speak to the board about current status of common areas and
some issues they’ve been having. Blue ribbon has changed their hours for irrigation watering to
during the day in hopes to get more pressure from the pumps. But not all of them can run only during
the day because some simply have to run at night with the number of systems/zones we have.
Eighteen hours is the longest cycle in the community that Blue Ribbon runs, others are shorter. It was
determined that peak use of irrigation in Crimson is between 1 am and 6 am. The city reaffirms the fact
that the city is on a loop system and Crimson is affected by the rest of Kuna. No one really knows how
much of a dent can be put in the pressure issue if we get on a schedule as a neighborhood. Blue Ribbon
also reported that early on in the season there were some electrical issues with the watering system
that caused lines not to work and browning occurred in various areas. HOA areas/sprinklers primarily
run on two wires which means when one goes down, it takes others with it. Blue Ribbon fixed the issue
as well as other wiring problems. Shelterwood requested an updated map of the entire sprinkler
system of the neighborhood and blue ribbon agreed to send that over to them. Blue Ribbon reported
that all sprinkler lines are checked once a month on a rotating system. Current contract reads that they
are split and each section will be checked 1 time a month. So, if something goes out shortly after they
were checked, it could potentially be almost a month before it is remedied. If we wanted to change
current contract to checking the lines more often Blue Ribbon could do that at an approximate cost of
$288/visit. That is also our current contract rate (10 visits/year at $288/each). On site repairs are at an
additional rate of $55/hour. These can really vary on visits and what is needed. Also, Blue Ribbon
offers a flat rate price option for fixes based on average amount of time it takes to repair things. They
will send prices and estimates for these options. Blue Ribbon did cut and trim tress with low branches
that were previously blocking sprinkler sprays. Shelterwood asked if they could ensure that the water
gets turned on sooner next year than it did this year. Blue ribbon can’t promise that, but they will do
their best to ensure it is turned on soon after irrigation comes on for Kuna. Low pressure areas of
concern have been running between 3-6am. Blue Ribbon is open to feedback from the HOA. The city
owned area on thistle by the pump station has been dying because CBH cut the lines for irrigation
while they did construction down there. Lines are now reconnected and the area should go back to
looking better. Danny thanked the board for their feedback and left. Board discussed and then
decided to leave things as they are and see if all the changes on settings and trimmings they did help
fix the common areas and issues.
7. Homeowner Tyler Birch came in for a follow up meeting since last meetings visit. The fee he assessed
from the past violations and certified letter from the attorneys is staying on his account. He argued the
fee and said that it was not consistent with his interpretations of last meetings discussion. Phil
acknowledged he could have worded things better last meeting. Since then, he and the board still feel
Tyler is responsible for the attorney fees occurred against Tyler. Phil apologized to Tyler for the
confusion and board members were in agreeance to hold Tyler responsible for the fees. Tyler was not
happy about the decision and voiced as much. He then had questions about violations and how often
they are done. They are done twice a month. He had issues about the trailer violations being sent out
and said others in the neighborhood he talked to were concerned as well. City code (only allowed out
72 hours on street) vs. Crimson’s CC&Rs (no trailers allowed to be parked unscreened) were reviewed.
The board assured Tyler they were aware of homeowners concerns regarding trailers and the
violations and would be discussing the issue further during the meeting to see what resolution they
could come up with. They understood the concerns voiced and agreed that no one wants to be
unreasonable.
8. Financials
a. Financial Report-Board reviewed all accounts and current totals. Reviewed costs for pool
monitors, cleaning, etc.
b. Check signing
9. Homeowner Anthony Montagnino came in to speak to the Board. He just moved in to 1894 Rosedust
and wanted to assure the board that he has plans to fix up both the inside and outside of his property.
They closed on the home on June 30th and have been working on interiors first, but has begun on
fencing. He stopped the process because he wasn’t sure what he needed to do for approval or
permits. Board informed him about ARC requests and that he could access those forms online and
submit them for approval. They asked him to include a rough timeline for when all things would be
completed. He agreed to submit the form and a timeline. He was happy to touch base with the board
so they know he is willing to comply with CC&Rs and wants their approval as he proceeds. Board told
him they could not approve of everything he wanted without a submitted ARC request and timeline
and they could not promise he wouldn’t ever get violations. They were very pleased that he made the
time to come and talk to them directly and let them know his intentions. They welcomed him to the
neighborhood and voiced appreciation for his willingness to improve and maintain his property.
a. Following his visit, the issue was brought up about when homes are sold that have existing
violations, what is the timeline for new owners before they can receive their first violation
letter. Board unanimously agreed and voted to approve that 30 days is sufficient time for this.
10. Violations Review
a. General Review
i. June 7th to July 11th = 95 total violations. Major categories were for maintenance – paint
letters & for vehicle parking – trailers, boats, campers. No violations have been sent out
due to dry patches on lawns yet. Watering has been an issue for everyone in the
community. Weed violations are being actively enforced.
b. Reinspection on trailers 48 to 72 hours after initially flagging the violation?
i. Trying to problem solve issue of numerous complaints from homeowners receiving
violations for trailers. Stating that their trailer, boat, camper etc. was parked there less
than a few hours when it was caught.
ii. Shelterwood suggests that they could go back around 48 to 72 hours later for a follow-
up inspection for trailers caught during the regular bimonthly inspections. Shelterwood
would charge $300.00 each month to add the service of doing follow-up inspections on
the bimonthly inspections. Suggest doing this March-November. Likely would cut trailer,
boat & camper violations in half and would save on costs of certified letters. Could help
alleviate some grief for homeowners and the board.
c. After discussion, the Board unanimously decided not to have follow-up inspections done but to
let camper trailers not to go past a first violation letter stage during the summer months of
June, July and August. However, come September 1st, the enforcement on campers will
continue as normal.
d. 1831 N. Rosedust Dr. – Gravel Driveway, house is being sold, new owners have made contact
and been made aware of issue, Title Co. also made aware of issue. Board agrees to give them
30 days after closing to remedy the problem, otherwise enforcement to begin again on the
violation.
e. 2086 N. Van Dyke – Trash Cans unscreened- Board votes not to refer to attorney at this time,
but want the violation checked again next month.
f. 2045 N. Van Dyke - Trash Cans unscreened- Board votes not to refer to attorney at this time,
but want the violation checked again next month.
11. Unfinished Business
a. Fencing
b. Board reviews again the bid from Frontier Fence and the costs/bids to do fencing. 500’=$8,000.
Looking over different sections of the community where fencing needs to be replaced. Looking
specifically at the walking paths between Thistle up to the school. Also looked over the sections
that back to Deer Flat. The board liked the idea of replacing fences in sections and spreading
out the cost over a number of years. Phil motions to replace the old and broken half of the
sections between Pewter and Rhodamine, as well as the walking path between Thistle and
Indian Creek. That is approximately 500’ of fencing. Board approves unanimously to do it.
c. While looking over subdivision areas for fencing, the issue was brought up regarding the house
that backs to the creek on Thistle that has a low 3’ fence and the backyard is dead and full of
weeds and there is a plastic shed visible from a public area. HOA Board unanimously votes to
give the owners the the option to put in a 6’ fence so the yard is out of sight OR fix their yard.
They want a violation letter sent about the shed as well since it is visible and violates the
CC&Rs.
d. Pool Rules—Board revisits this issue and takes into consideration the phone call from the
lawyer earlier. Discussion over “supervision” versus being accompanied by an adult. What
about a “responsible” person? All agree liability is an issue. Angela is adamant and wants it
noted that she does not agree with anything other than adult accompaniment at the pool.
Discussion continues over making concessions to appease the IFHC. The board wants to avoid a
lawsuit, but they do not agree that “competent” swimmer idea is good. How do they/anyone
measure that? Phil suggests that as further information from the lawyer comes to light, a
special HOA board meeting may need to be held. Also, discussed homeowners helping to
enforce the rules and laws of the community. Homeowners sometimes remind others about
the rules and aid in enforcing them.
e. Landscaping update - Follow-up on answers about cement irrigation boxes- information
presented on the fact that the HOA is allowed to beautify the areas around these as long as
access to them is not restricted. Board would like to think on it and discuss it again.
f. Fender bender incident in parking lot. Board went over the incident involving some homeowners in
the community and Shelterwood informed them all surveillance videos of the incident were turned
over to the police as requested.
12. New Business
a. Landscaping proposals-Board looks over estimates from Blue Ribbon and Sunshine Landscaping
the cement boxes in common areas, specifically, the two near the clubhouse. Reviewed types of
plants being proposed. Also want bids for the other two off ten mile and costs to face them and
possibly add signage to them. Phil motions to approve the Bid from Blue Ribbon for $7,397.00
for the two areas on Crenshaw/Shayla and have them begin on them soon. Motion carried
without dissent.
b. Board also reviews Gazebo ideas and bids received for common areas. Discussion over the best
place to place one and where it would be best used. Board tables the discussion until next
meeting.
c. The wanted to know about the cost to “face” the cement boxes on Crenshaw and Blush with
dry stack stone.
d. Idea is proposed to get and install a garbage can at the small park area is raised and the board
would like to see bids from about cost to maintain and empty that regularly. Idea is that it
could help curb the garbage and litter that is regularly left there. The board would like a
garbage can on a post with a lid attached by a cord (like the ones you see at other parks.)
e. Clubhouse Deep Cleaning? Board unanimously approves to have it done at the regular hourly
rate.
f. Clubhouse carpet shampooing? Board unanimously approves to have it done.
g. Clubhouse odds & ends
i. Gate-Some bolts and the hinges on the pool gate need to be replaced to stop the loud
banging that happens each time they close. Board approves to have it done.
ii. Organization of closets- Board approves to have it organized and cleaned during the
deep cleaning process by cleaning ladies.
iii. Pool cover storage- Board approves to have it done and buy a storage box to keep it in.
iv. Holes on doors- Board approves to have them fixed.
v. Monitor for cameras- Board approves to get one to leave at the clubhouse.
vi. Clubhouse Décor-being worked on by board members. Want Welcome sign hung back
up inside clubhouse.
vii. Broken light fixture in pool- Board approves to have it repaired by pool company.
h. Pool on Rosedust and Turquoise
i. Comparable land with pool area in Tuscany—The board looks over a comparable pool
area in another subdivision with the corner of Rosedust and Turquoise. Board looks at
sizing comparisons and agrees a pool or splash pad would be possible at that location
without a parking lot. The idea to put a splash pad instead with benches and possibly
some playground equipment was also brought up as an idea. Board was interested in
using the corner space for something other than just grass. Board would like to see bids
for both a pool or a splash pad area. Also, all agree it would need to be fenced off and
gated with access by cards only. After bids and cost estimates are received, the board
would like to poll the neighborhood as far as which they would prefer—pool or splash
pad or if they would prefer one at all.
i. Shelterwood Contract-Phil wants to know if Shelterwood is interested in renewing contract and
whether they would prefer a month to month or yearlong contract. Shelterwood is willing to
renew and prefers a yearlong contract.
j. Blue Ribbon Contract-Board discusses the value of services provided by Blue Ribbon. They
would like to look around and possibly get some bids from other companies to make sure they
are choosing a landscaping company that is a good value for the community.
k. Time between Vial Fotheringham (VF) letters and follow-up after VF letters for escalation.
Discussion over time between letters and Phil motions for 30 days as sufficient time to give
homeowners between these letters so they can attend a meeting with the board or make
arrangements to correct the issue, and motion carried without dissent.
l. Irrigation shut offs when water gets stuck on? Ongoing issue of calls from homeowners to
Shelterwood when sprinklers get stuck on near them in common areas and are flooding. Blue
Ribbon charges $75-$100 dollars to come out and take care of them. Shelterwood has been
voluntarily taking care of these sprinkler issues and turning them off at no charge and then
communicating with Blue Ribbon about the shut off. They propose charging $25 each time they
go out to do this going forward on an emergency on call basis. Board unanimously approves.
13. Homeowner Business
a. Question about approval for pavers for driveway purposes. Homeowner received a letter about his
unfinished driveway and wrote back to the board. He would like to put pavers in for his driveway
he has already dug out. Homeowner claims he cannot get bids from cement companies because
they will not come out to give bids. Board does not approve pavers for driveway area. They would
like him contacted by Shelterwood to inform him of this decision.
14. Next Meeting date set for August 1, 2017 at 7:00 pm.
15. Adjournment at 10:44 pm.

122) Unfinished Business
a. Fencing discussion and information
i. Went over the options for fencing for 250 feet of fence while leaving the posts. 3 companies
put in bids, all are very comparative. Discussion over whether to leave the fence at 3 ft or the
fence upgraded to 6 ft and replace all poles. Board looks at samples of the fencing and
discusses the options. Sections at a time and continue replacing each year as needed to
complete it, or just do what is absolutely necessary? Board takes samples outside to see what
matches the current fencing—sand or tan colored pieces? Board chose a 4 inch replacement
piece and like the idea of replacing large stretches of fencing at a time. Possibility to replace
the 3 ft sections with 6 ft high fences. Board wants to know if different companies would
match pricing of others and warranty information. Board tables discussion until next meeting.
b. The Board wants bids for drainage issues outside clubhouse.
c. Pool Monitor(s)—Board agrees to purchase an umbrella so the pool monitor has shade while
working. Board wants options emailed. Discussion over umbrellas as an option for use for
community members. Concern over damage to umbrellas or stands if left out. Option of a
more permanent awning/covering for the pool discussed. Tabled this discussion until next
meeting. They want options and pricing options for permanent structure to provide more shade
at the pool.
123) Homeowner Business
a. Tyler Birch comes to the meeting at 7:40 pm about his trailer and trash cans and allegedly not
getting a certified letter from the attorney. He stated that he has moved his trash cans to
behind the fence. He stated he had received letters from the HOA, but not the attorney. The
trailer has been moved as well. He wanted the $100 waived, board agreed to check with legal
on certification. They agreed to activate his pool card until notice received from legal. Tyler
agreed to pay the $100 if legal can prove that someone in his home signed for it.
b. Pool Rules
i. Andrew Schank came in at 7:49 pm to discuss the rule of “All children under 14 must be
accompanied by an adult over 18.”
ii. Andrew stated he was concerned that the rule violates fair housing laws of age
discrimination.
iii. Discussion over what the possible outcomes would be, but as it stands, legal says things
are ok and until we hear from them, it stands. Andrew was happy to hear the issue is
being addressed and legal looking into it. There is a safety and a supervision issue—
Andrew believes these are two very separate issues. Board wants to prevent injury to
members of the community and their children. Board said legal sent an Idaho rule citing
that says kids under 13 need to be supervised by an adult in a public pool without a
lifeguard on duty.
iv. The board has referred the question and issue over to Vial Fotheringham and has asked
them to respond on the legalities of the question on the rule.
c. Hilary Lowe stops by at 8:36 pm to comment about pool improvements, she stated that she as
a homeowner is very happy with the improvements. She requests that pool times and age limits
stay as they are. She agrees with the rules as they stand and believes 13 and 14 are a big
difference especially because there is a division between middle and high school. She has seen
people sneak into the pool without pool keys. She is in favor of the pool monitors.
d. Question about window air conditioners—Homeowner wants to know if window air
conditioners are allowed. Michael will follow up on house with complained unit and take a
picture to email the board to see what they think.
e. Crusat email about the drainages and mosquitoes. Possibility to fix it? Have engineer draft up
how to fix it? Emailed forwarded to the board. The ditches have some standing water and
mosquitos, but it helps with drainage and to avoid flooding. Likely fixable, but likely a costly
engineering project. The board unanimously decided to not pursue action on this at this time.
124) New Business
a. Community Bash with Vendors - Association approach is to a community bash with vendors.
The Board does not want to have a Community Bash with Vendors.
b. Signage - Sign by the pool that is completely bleached. Used to say “No Diving”. Is no longer
readable. The board unanimously voted to have bleached sign replaced.
c. Clubhouse Cleaning.
i. Former cleaning lady interested in doing it for $25 a visit and pay for supplies. Previous
company charged $65 per visit for once per week visits.
ii. Board is interested in having Shelterwood to hire them directly. Once a week cleaning
with a hired cleaner is adequate with pool monitors doing daily cleaning of bathroom
areas during the summer.
iii. Board voted unanimously to have Shelterwood hire cleaners for a charge of $35 per
hour (to cover workers comp. expense, taxes, etc) for clubhouse weekly cleaning.
Shelterwood to pay $25 per hour to cleaners.
d. Flowers - Add flowers where the concrete boxes are near the clubhouse? There is currently just
dirt on both sides.
i. Board would like flowers or bushes that would help cover them. Board would like to see
suggestions for plants that would offer more coverage of the boxes. Maybe Purple sage
in the area.
ii. Board would like quotes for a modest upgrade to those areas.
e. Possibility to surround outsides of cement boxes with fencing that matches the rest of the
neighborhood discussed.
i. Would we need permission from the city?
ii. What about decorative rock/stone?
iii. Board would like quotes and options for these areas and see is it’s even an option with
the city.
f. Clubhouse Reservation Policy Revisited—Homeowners used to be able to rent clubhouse out
for business purposes. Current policy says each homeowner allowed to rent out 1 time/month.
i. Interested in changing the policy?
1. There are issues with other homeowners being blocked from placing
reservations if certain people repeatedly reserve it. Board likes the current
policy and wants it to stay as it is.
g. Sprinkler Issue—Dry areas on Shayla. Shelterwood to follow up with Blue ribbon on sprinklers
and dry areas.
h. Fees owed for pool access?
i. Yes, there are a few homeowners still owing fees and dues who have pool access
restricted currently.
i. Set-up/Transfer Fees - Discussion over how the transfer fees and set up fees are currently
handled and rates.
i. Sarah motioned to have all checks (including Set-up Fee) paid to Crimson Point HOA and
then Shelterwood to charge a $75 set-up fee directly to Crimson Point HOA instead of
separately to the buyer/seller at closing for each house sold to create a more seamless
set-up process. Seconded by Phil and carried without dissent.
j. Yard Sale—This Saturday. Board wants a posting on craigslist to help advertise the yard sale for
the subdivision. Give directions and maybe even post a picture. Add a posting on the crimson
point page and next door site online too.

i. Phil brought up ideas for building on existing common areas instead of buying new, such
as expanding existing pool and creating picnic type areas in the existing common area.
ii. Phil brought up concerns for raising dues and that he felt dues would need to be raised
to purchase extra land and then build a pool on that land. This lead into a discussion
about the budget that was previously set and existing amounts in reserves which at the
end of the January were just over $265,000.
1. There would not be an immediate need to raise dues and depending on how fast
future boards decided to improve the potential land purchase there may or may
not be a need to raise dues depending on how fast the community grows and
the timing of improvements and the scope of the improvements. Hillary
suggested that if the land was initially purchased that would allow the HOA to
slowly improve it over time and it would immediately block any apartment
buildings or other undesirable improvements from going in there.

members, but to initially gather more facts about the potential purchase such as can it
even be purchased for $250,000, what does financing the land look like, etc.

upon agreeable financing, feedback from association members and inspection. D’Neill
seconded the motion and Ryan, Nick agreed. Phil opposed.

reported that he contacted ACHD about making improvements in the common area
drainages. ACHD informed James that it could very well be possible and that the HOA
would need to have a civil engineer draft up potential proposals. Had also written up an
offer for $250,000 to potentially be signed by board for land purchase. Hillary and
D’Neill to review and sign.

website and the system that controls the door locks.

i. The bid from Blue Ribbon for the endcap improvements on Crenshaw and Shayla was
reviewed. Blue Ribbon’s bid was $8,577 per end cap proposed. The board members

c. Records review
i. Shelterwood reported back on information from the attorneys at Vial Fotheringham in
regards to the legality of changing all the old historical records (that are currently kept in
12 boxes) into electronic files and the destroying the hard copies. Changing records to
electric formats is legal and advisable.
ii. Electronic records can be kept in two different places to protect against accidental
destruction such as a fire or flood, electronic files can be organized and searched easier,
and they take up almost no physical space compared to boxes.
iii. The board would like Shelterwood to gather bids from companies that would be able to
convert the hard copies to electronic files and present those bids to the board.
d. 1099 rules review
i. The board reviewed information on 1099 contractors vs. employees found at
https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/independent-
contractor-self-employed-or-employee. The board does not want to hassle with having
any employees of the HOA and prefer to deal with contractors only. Discussed pool
monitors and perhaps hiring pool monitors in the future through a temp. agency so as
avoid having employees of the association. This left off as a tentative idea.
e. Violations review
i. Top violations sent last month were due to landscaping issues mostly due to weeds,
rubbish & debris, and RV parking. Smartwebs software for violations was briefly
reviewed. Discussed sending violations for political signs in yards- will wait on these
violations until after the election if they are still up then. Smartwebs has been fully
implemented for approximately 1.5 months. 85% of homeowners correct the violations
with the first letter received.
f. Painting letters & outcomes

members identified as needing repainting due to various issues such as excessive fading,
nails showing through, peeling paint, etc. Of those 107 homes, 45 have been confirmed
repainted, 24 are in approved extension deadlines, and the remainder have not
requested extension, have not painted or still need confirmation of completing the
painting refresh.
g. Homeowner accounts going to Vial Fotheringham

i. Furnace Zone repair / bid review
i. Bid reviewed from Ultimate Heating and Air to fix the furnace zone motor that is not
operating. To fix one zone motor/damper, the cost would be $449. There are three
zones with one zone broken. The other two zone dampers & motors are the same age
and type as the broken one. The chance that the other zone motors and dampers
breaking down in the near future appeared likely. The cost to replace all three zone
motors and dampers would be $1,042 if they are done at the same time. The board
unanimously agreed to replace all three zones now to get the discounted price and
avoid un unexpected emergency when the others go out.
j. Shower water lines / bid review
i. To have plumber blow out the water lines to the exterior showers on the clubhouse the
cost would be $210. The plumber with Master Rooter said that the lines would be pretty
easy to blow out and actually recommended that someone who blows out sprinkler
lines could do this this for much less. The board would like Shelterwood to check if Blue
Ribbon could blow these out when they blow out the sprinklers and then if not have a
landscaper who does blow outs winterize these lines.
k. Security Cameras / bid review
i. Bid from the Alarm Guy (vendor who previously installed security cameras) reviewed for
adding two cameras to the front of clubhouse and upgrade the system to accommodate
these. The total cost to this would be $2,521. The board unanimously agreed to have
the cameras added and the upgrade done.
5) New Business

i. The board and manager walked through the clubhouse and identified repairs needed in
the near future.
ii. Shelterwood to gather bids over the upcoming months. Work to be done during winter

iii. Noted repairs needed
1. Interior paint- especially below the counter near bar stools and on trim
throughout. The board all agreed that the clubhouse needed a painting refresh.
Hillary and D’Neill to gather color options and present to board at next meeting.
2. Flooring in bathrooms and in hallway near bathrooms needs refinishing. The
board would like to gather bids to refinish and add grit to the finish for traction.
3. Carpet is in need of cleaning. Carpet Geek was suggested as a quality
professional to professionally clean carpets. Shelterwood to schedule with
Carpet Geek.
4. Counter top near kitchen sink has a large scratch. Shelterwood to look into how
to fix scratches in Corian Countertops.
5. Light switch in small conference room needs adjusted.
6. Door handles need upgrading to commercial grade.
7. Men’s bathroom could benefit from some type of liner/barrier half way up the
wall near toilet.
8. Interior shower liners and hooks need replacing.
b. Clubhouse usage & rules
i. Homeowner Juli Van Wyk came in at 8:00 pm to discuss with the board clubhouse usage
and rules in the wake of some recent changes to limit clubhouse use by homeowners to
once per month per homeowner. Juli suggested allowing homeowners to make
reservations more than once per month if the dates are not getting used by other
homeowners. She also suggested allowing someone who has already made a
reservation that month to make another reservation, but not do so until a few days
before hand so as to not prevent someone else from making a reservation on that date
who may not use the clubhouse as often.
ii. The board deliberated on the current policy of once per month per homeowner and
unanimously decided to keep the policy.
iii. The board also discussed officially limiting clubhouse usage going forward to private
events only. Hillary motioned to limit clubhouse usage to private use only (no business
or commercial reservations) Nick second and all approved. Shelterwood to implement
changes going forward for clubhouse reservations.
c. Electronic payment options
i. Discussed setting up payment option through website. There would be monthly charges
to set this up. The board ruled this option.
ii. Hillary motioned to use square to take credit cards and setting a convenience fee of $15
to recoup cost of using square to accept credit cards.
d. The board unanimously would like to move forward with an Enforcement Resolution with Vial
Fotheringham for a flat fee of $500. The Enforcement Resolution will engage the HOA and the
attorney’s at Vial Fotheringham into a partnership in regards to CC&R violations. It will spell out
a specific process for escalation of violations and turnover to Vial Fotheringham for violations
that continue to be unaddressed by homeowners.
e. Insurance
i. Current insurance reviewed. Shelterwood to gather quotes for comparable insurance
from other companies and follow up with the board on pricing.
f. Land purchase for additional pool and/or splashpad
i. The board discussed moving forward on purchasing vacant land to add a pool or
splashpad.
ii. All agreed it would be best to be represented by a real estate agent. The board
unanimously agreed to have agent James Gannon with Jon Gosche Real Estate represent
the HOA in inquiring about available lots and perhaps eventually offering to purchase
land for the purpose of building a second pool and/or splashpad.
6) Financials
a. Financials and budget reviewed
b. Original anticipated budget for 2017
i. Landscaping- Last 12 months of spending in this category plus $25,000 for anticipated
landscaping improvements throughout the common areas.
ii. Property Management- Anticipating some growth it was projected an average of 450
homes in the subdivision for 2017. Currently charged $3.40 per home per month for
property management. The $3.40 per home is a very competitive and reasonable bid
and the board plans on sticking with our property manager in 2017. Also added $1,000
for mailing charges.
iii. Pool Monitor- Originally $18,360 was budgeted for this. The board thought this was too
much for a pool monitor. Phil especially voiced concerns with the high amount. Hillary
suggested budgeting $10,000 for this instead. All agreed that $10,000 be the tentative
budgeted amount, though this amount may be lower depending on need and what the
schedule of the pool monitor(s) will be during the summer. The pool monitor(s) will help
to enforce the pool rules and make it a better environment for homeowners.

v. Service Fees- Last 12 months of spending in this category plus 1.5% anticipated inflation.

a couple more security cameras and some other odds and ends. Anticipate this all will
cost approximately $10,000.
vii. Pool Maintenance- plan on getting a new UV system that will help the pool to be able to
reopen within a few hours after a contamination incident rather than 24 hours. This
system will cost approximately $1000. Added the last 12 months of spending in this
category plus 1.5% anticipated inflation and added the $1000 to that.
viii. Cleaning- Last 12 months of spending in this category plus 1.5% anticipated inflation.
ix. Supplies for clubhouse- Last 12 months of spending in this category plus 1.5%
anticipated inflation.
x. Insurance- Last 12 months of spending in this category plus 1.5% anticipated inflation.

aesthetics of the house and yard. For example, if the house/yard had a couple of weeds, dead
spots or toys in the yard, but the property overall otherwise looked great, then generally they
thought that no violation should be sent at this time.

clubhouse and to develop a yearly maintenance list for the clubhouse. Manager to contact
Annalee with Steed Cleaning for a list for maintenance as well.

on the website are things such as click on a link for ARC requests, submit complaint, general
info. No portal for homeowner accounts necessary at this time on website.
5) New Business
a. Treasure Valley Pool & Spa- Hillary motion to have current pool vendor install a UV sanitation
system for around $1,000 sometime this fall, Ryan second and all approved. The benefit to a UV
filter will be that the pool, after a contamination incident, will be able to re-open within a
couple of hours instead of a day because the pool vendor will not need to bring the chlorine
levels as high. The system should last for approximately 10 years.
b. Blue Ribbon (Landscaping proposals). Hans (President of Blue Ribbon) came in at 7:13 pm and
presented to the board in regards to enhancement ideas. Hillary asked about hardiness of
plants. Hans confirmed that plants are hardy. Hans suggested islands of plants and corners of
plants. Ryan liked the ideas of covering up of unsightly electrical and irrigation boxes. Board is
interested in adding a third monument at the corner of Crenshaw on Ten Mile. Board is
interested in the idea of pergolas vs. industrial looking covered patios. Discussed managing the
swells, Hillary suggested installing a couple of poles for volley ball, need to ask ACHD. Hans will
send estimates on proposals. Board would like priorities placed on the entrances. Hillary would
like suggestions for pool area improvements.
i. Attached picture is an example of corner improvements and/or island improvements in
common areas on Crenshaw and in the large swath of grass on Shayla.
c. Paul Anderson, Justin Hubble & Ernie Menchaca (developers) RE: corner of ten mile and
Crenshaw/ Access over HOA’s private property on Crenshaw
i. Justin Hubble presented at 7:41 pm about fourplexes going in called “Olivia’s Garden”
Ten Mile and Crenshaw. About 17 fourplex units. The developers asked for either
primary access #1, or emergency access #2 off of Crenshaw. The ADHD and Kuna of
Kuna both advised them to seek permission from the HOA regarding access across the
HOA’s private property on Crenshaw. They stated they are building fourplexes for
families. Possibly having a mixture of 2 and 3 bedroom apartments. Concerns were
raised about the increase to CP’s swimming pool as friends would invite other friends to
swim in CP’s pool. Concerns were also raised about granting access as potentially
causing increased traffic issues in the CP neighborhood. The Board later deliberated and
voted unanimously to not grant primary access or emergency access across the HOA’s
private property on Crenshaw.
ii. Attached picture of developer’s request to cross and access Crenshaw.
iii. They also recommended visiting the city of Kuna (Troy or Wendy) to get
recommendation for another pool to present to CBH.
