Minutes:  The minutes of the previous board meeting on June 11, 2002, were reviewed, accepted with corrections, and submitted to Peter Blondin for posting to the Cluster’s website.

Old Business: 

1.        Bill pointed out that he had been given several cluster blueprints & design documents.  Some appeared to be original documents and the condition of several was deteriorating.  Jim will look into having a reprographics firm copy them to a graphics file on CD-ROM. (Still working)

2.       Linda sent out a request for proposals to five paving companies but received only one bid.  She will try to obtain other bids from qualified companies so that there can be competitive analysis prior to any final awarding of a contract. 

New Business: 

1. Agnes Osborne provided notice that she was no longer available to perform the duties of Lakewinds II bookkeeper.
2. A motion was made and passed to request that Margitta Muhlenburg, a certified public accountant, review the cluster records and complete taxes.  Treasurer will ask Margitta for a recommended accounting review whether complete or partial to support a bookkeeper change and satisfy homeowner association requirements. 
3. A motion was made and passed for Janice to pursue the hiring of bookkeeper for an unspecified period.
4. The board reviewed the current budget to determine where monies could be reallocated if necessary.
5. A motion was made and passed to move $45K from checking to an interest-bearing savings account.
6. A motion was made and passed to hire ARC electric to repair light cut by Comcast along the path.
7. Bill will generate a newsletter and send it to our cluster residents indicating relevant cluster information.
