3 Neil J introduced CLCA’s new Manager, Bob Swinton, to the members of the Board who had

not yet met him, and the audience. {Mr. Swinton made no speech, having to run to work the

compactor.] 4..John C explained the history and the present disposition of Nikles, the builder’s

suit against the CLCA Board and the Board individual members. The conflict arises out of

differing interpretations of Act 180 by Nikles and the rules of CLCA concerning lots purchased

at tax sales. This Board and previous Boards have attempted to

recover vacated debts owed to CLCA when lots are purchased at judicial sale, when the law

allows all debts on  them to be disallowed. . In one instance, CLCA’s involvement led to Nikles

complaining about damages to his business. Though he owns twelve in CLCA, his suit itemizes three.

 His complaint is available to all interested members, to be read in the Office.  

5 Manny S motioned to accept the Minutes of Dec 11, 2004.  John C seconded. Motion passed

 unanimously. Nancy C abstained.

 the Reserves for

FY 2004-2005 on the Large Trash Compactor, SS Spreader, and Cat Skid Steer in the amount

of $1600, $400,

 and $3300 respectively. The money to be generated by lot sales. [Replacement cost is noted as

$59,300. Manny S seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

9 John C reported on the property status and the rules regarding the status of “dirty” and “clean”

lots. In the  Office files, tax sale lots will be designated by a “T.” He reminded the Board that back

CLCA dues are wiped out at judicial sales. He explained one resident’s purchase of a tax sale lot and

his request that it be joined to his  existing house-lot, the former being a “dirty” lot, the latter a “clean”

one. Thus the contamination of the “clean” lot by the “dirty” one will be dismissed. John C noted

 the benefits to the community in the request, for the absence  of building accrues positively to the

 activities of CLCA.

John C motioned that Lot 6206, combined with Lot 6205, be granted “in good standing” status as a

 result of benefits accruing to the CLCA community, with the provision that this sets no precedent and

all further situations and/or requests of this nature be discussed, presented, and determined by the

Board on an ad-hoc basis. Manny S seconded. Motion approved unanimously.

10 John C motioned that we approve a lot owner’s request concerning a modification of his easement

 if such a request, submitted to the Township, is approved by the Township.  Manny S seconded.

 Motion approved unanimously.

11 Fred K motioned that CLCA , given the voidance of its current builders’ fee by Act 180, institute

a new builders’ fee of $300, comprising $100 for administrative costs and $200 for four (4)

inspections, and the fee subject to additions if extra  inspections are made necessary during the

 process of building. Lynn Mc seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

12 John C made a report on dues collections he had examined in January 2005. He noted the

percentages collected by other neighboring communities, which he affirmed were more

conservative and demanding in their procedures.

 Two judgments have been filed; nothing has been done, since, as he explained, there is no legal mechanism

available for communities to follow up on judgments.

13 Lord’s Valley Self Storage, where CLCA stores its old records, raised its prices 6%. The office

budget will pay for that increase.

14 Among other pronouncements, it was noted that one bankruptcy by a CLCA homeowner

had been denied; 15 The Board determined the following dates: Dumpster Day, April 23, if Dave A

 confirms. If not, April 30.  Tentatively August 6 for the Fall action.  Flea market will be held on the

Saturdays of Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day.  The Annual World Renowned

CLCA Easter Egg Hunt Day will be determined by Allie

Ciampoli, who will be asked to take over the duties since she did such a fine job last year.

16 The Board approved the expenditure of not more than $100 for the planned Meet & Greet

Mixer planned for May 22, the fund to be used for names tags, slight refreshments, and other party

stuff.
