[Board] sign easements - update

Tue Aug 11 19:45:00 EDT 2015

Keith:

I think that’s the plan – the District will take over the sign maintenance (and can contract for that work to be done with an electrical company).  We need to have someone on board (on an on-call basis) to address electrical and lighting issues as they arise.

Having the District take over sign maintenance, etc. was one of the issues that was discussed when we asked for the HOAs support in assisting the District with getting last fall’s ballot issue passed.  We can formally vote on that at an upcoming meeting.

And I do believe that there may be some insurance proceeds that were received by the HOA – but not spent to date.  I will ask the HOA to provide an accounting of same.

At this point, just looking for consensus to circulate the draft document to homeowners that have monument signs in their yard (like Dan) – to make sure that everyone is a-ok with the proposed language.

Dan/Harold/Keith – can you weigh in on whether you’re ok with the draft document being circulated so that the sign committee can proceed with this prior to the Board’s September meeting?

Thanks!

Marcus

On page 1, the Grantee (the District) is described as being responsible for the installation, repair, etc... have we already taken this over from the HOA? If not, shouldn't this document be worded to accommodate either the HOA or its successor(s)?

If we have already accepted responsibility, did the monies received by the HOA, but never spent on repairing the electrical damage (e.g. the Holly sign was rebuilt without lighting ....) come to the District?

As one of the sign committee members, I have reviewed the agreements and I vote having them submitted to the property owners with a formal vote whether the District will fully executed the agreements at the next September meeting.

Harold, Dan, Keith, and Geoff:

Hope everyone is having a great summer!!

The HOA-District sign committee has completed an initial draft of the easements that neighborhood property owners will be asked to execute.  Tal Diamant (a member of the sign committee and an attorney at Brownstein) was very helpful in pulling this initial draft together.  An example is attached.

Looking for some general input from the Board at this point:

(1)    Is the Board comfortable with the sign committee distributing these agreements to the approximate twelve (12) owners that have neighborhood monument signs in their yard now (in the next few weeks); OR

(2)    Would the Board prefer a meeting to review/discuss the agreement in additional detail before the agreement is circulated within the neighborhood?

I believe we canceled our August meeting, so if the preference is (2) above perhaps we think about holding the August meeting so that we can keep this process moving forward.

I think that the agreement is pretty straightforward and is homeowner friendly.

If the preference is (1) above – then I think members of the committee will be working between now and the Board’s September meeting on getting the necessary signatures from the property owners – assuming that everyone will sign – I expect there may be some tweaks here and there with the language – with the hope that the Board can pass a resolution / motion authorizing the President and other Board members to execute the various easements on behalf of the District.

Look forward to your reply and recommendations on next steps.
