Sandoval Landscape was asked to water trees and shrubs at the entrances and common areas in lieu of mowing.

Suzie Jamerson reported that the ice cream social was a lot of fun.  She suggested that next year the Board may go door-to-door to get better attendance.

There was no architectural report.

Old Business:

• Don Bosma has ordered all the numbers necessary to complete the mailbox posts throughout the community.
• A homeowner was concerned about a muskrat problem.  Critter Control can be very expensive and catching muskrats does not totally alleviate the problem.  Perhaps a homeowner will volunteer to set traps to eliminate the muskrats.

New Business:

• Larry Edwards is still waiting for a cost to survey the property.  Once the Board approves and the survey is complete, a farm fence will be installed on the east side of the property.  The materials for the fence have already been purchased.
• The community lost trees in the high winds.  Broad Ripple Tree Service has to remove two split maples and a large ash tree.

The meeting was adjourned.

   The ice cream social is August 11 from 2-4.  The Association will provide drinks and ice cream; homeowners should bring their favorite toppings.

There was no landscape report.

There was no architectural report.

New Business:

• The water is low in all ponds so there is a bigger gap under the goose fences.  Ducks are taking advantage of the situation.  PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE DUCKS.  This will only encourage them to stay around.
• Larry Edwards reported that the town fire marshal inspected the clubhouse and found everything OK.
• Sandoval Landscaping will be watering trees in lieu of mowing.  They will use the homeowner’s water for this.  No front bushes will be watered.
• Bill Jamerson and Randy Simmons began to install a farm fence when one homeowner in Austin Lakes complained.  Larry Edwards contacted PCS Engineering for an estimate to survey the east side of the complex.  An official from Avon informed the Austin Lakes homeowner that Waterford could install any fence it wanted on its own property. Waterford Lakes will install a farm fence.  The Association will also look at the gaps toward the middle of the east side of the property, but the first course of business is getting the property surveyed.

The meeting was adjourned.
