A lengthy discussion was held about the CC&R’s in regard to signs. It was decided contact with several realtors in Baldwin Park would be contacted to come up with a proposal to be considered for open house signs.

The “to do” list item regarding revisions to the By Laws was tabled for discussion at a letter date.

It was recommended that future board meetings be held at a place that would allow attendance by homeowners. Stan will contact several local eating places to see if that is possible.

Dwight recommended that the current Baldwin Park web site be moved to a remote list server instead of being maintained on his personal computer. It would cost about $6.00 / month. Dwight will pursue finding a host for the web site.

A suggestion was made to form a Christmas decorating committee for next year.

Dan was requested to get several bags of de-icer from Trautman.

A discussion was held on installing barriers to the common area and walks to prevent any reoccurrence of vehicles driving down the walk and across the park area. Stan suggested that boulders placed strategically would look better than steel post. Dan will contact Trautman Landscape to see how much room they need to allow access for mowers etc.
