Social Committee Report: A great thank you to:  Sharon Simmons, Janelle Miller, Cathy Winterrowd, and Bill Jamerson for the terrific help at the Ice Cream Social and a huge Thank You for all that attended, it was a big success.     Suzie made several visits to residents with cards and flowers wishing them a speedy recovery and well wishes from neighbors and friends.

Landscaping:   A large sinkhole  was forming around drain behind brick wall at main entrance. PSG will repair.  Mr. Jarrett complimented the concrete repair work done on his and other driveways.  David Jones stated that flags will be placed on all posts around the ponds for the Labor Day holiday. Maggie Jones requested a quote for a new commercial grade picnic table to replace current table in the shade garden. Cathy Winterrowd reported that the  “no outlet” signs,  will not be placed on any Waterford Lakes courts per the Town of Avon.   

New Business/Old Business:  Susan Keene reported that the electric bill for the clubhouse is over budget for the year. It was suggested that we lower the winter heat setting to 55 degrees.  Therefore, the air conditioner temperature should also  be raised to 80 degrees  or above during non use to offset electrical cost.   Holiday rentals:  Susan Keene posed the question of how to handle clubhouse rentals for Christmas and Thanksgiving holidays. Board members met to consider their ideas and solutions on this issue. Some suggestions: Beginning the calendar year of 2015, bookings for holidays will only be permitted three months in advance with  rental  and deposit payments. Bookings are scheduled by resident address only. Residents are permitted one holiday per year and not allowed in consecutive years. PSG will maintain records. These suggestions and others will be considered and discussed at the next meeting.  
It was brought to the attention of the board that some residents have removed the iron grates from their storm doors and some residents have changed the colors of their exterior doors. Any changes made to exterior units must be approved by submission of an architectural request form supplied by PSG. PSG will forward this form to the architectural committee for approval.  PSG will be sending letters to those residents that have removed iron grates from their storm doors and to address the painting of exterior doors without architectural approval.  REF: Waterford Lakes Declarations, pg 16 sections 2 and 3. (see below)

ATTENTION: Please do not leave pets unattended! Wandering unattended pets could result in severe injury / possible loss of a pet. This is unfair to the other Waterford Lake residents.
ALS   ice bucket challenge / donation – Jimmy and Judy Havens’, son-in-law Kent, has promised to match donations to ALS. His goal is $10,000. Donations may be sent to Jimmy and Judy Havens at 202 Lakeview Ct.
Motion made to Adjourn.          Next meeting:   Thursday, 7 pm  September 18th.
