Treasurer’s Report:
P/Land Balance Sheet were presented. Julie
Boyd asked what the $333.00 on debt card was
for. Mike D said that was for stamps and
envelopes. Accounts Receivable amount is the
balance of people who haven’t paid yet.
Proposed Budget: Bryan explained the
proposed budget that was handed out. We are
hoping to get to a point where members can
pay online, get proxies etc. Explained why the
survey of the wetland/greenbelts was on
budget. Many owners are unaware of the
locations and boundaries, we are hoping this
will help define those. Explained why fire
hydrants amount is in budget. PAWSD and the
Fire District have been contacted. PAWSD is
responsible for this but they don’t have the
manpower to keep it up. This money will
towards getting the hydrants tested and
maintained. Cathy Justus thinks the board
needs to put pressure on PAWSD to service
these. Mary Jo Valentine feels this is a good use
of money spent.
Julie Boyd thinks dues should be lowered to $50

FireWise made their presentation by JoJo AIlen
and Bill Timarco. Bill is the WildFire Adaptive rep
for FireWise USA. He stated that all the forests
around here are sick. The original trees had a
fire about every 7 years and that kept them
healthy. Holiday Acres trees are probably from
around 1910. The trees are too close together
and too dry. When they are like this they are
susceptible to disease, bugs ect. Our aerial is
very similar to Paradise Ca. and what happened
there could happen to us. Bill’s job is to teach
homeowner’s how to save their house in the
event of a fire.
He stated community assessments can be
available. Mr. & Mrs. Berger asked what kind of
mulch is recommended. Bill recommends gravel
or dirt.
He asked that the board put money in their
budget for FireWise. FireWise is a non-profit
organization. There is a whole page on our
website about FireWlse.
Cathy Justus asked about mowing on the road
easements. The county doesn’t do mowing
anymore. Can we contract this out? )
Doris Green asked the boards position on Air
B/B. The board doesn’t have authority because
it’s not in our CC & R’s. All B&B’s should be
registered with the county. You can call and
check to make sure it’s being done and
permitted properly.
Code by Curtis: IT guy is taking over our site
from T J Carter. He is going to merge sites and
