       5.12   STAFF REPORT / NEWSLETTER ITEMS –

6.0   UNFINISHED BUSINESS

        6.01   TV Bulk Rates – Pollock advises Comcast does require 100% participation in order to provide bulk rates. She is now investigating DISH Network. They can supply one dish per building (not per unit) which decreases the damage to the roof by everyone installing their own dish.

        6.02   Speed Bumps – Morley advises two bids were submitted for installing speed bumps across from #21, #46, and 94. One bid was for plastic bumps 2 inches high and 24 inches wide.  The other bid was from Granite Construction for an asphalt bump 3 inches high and 36 inches wide at a cost of $1898. The bid for asphalt was less expensive than the bid for plastic. We will have to paint the stripes. Motion by Grossman, seconded by Rugar, to approve the bid from Granite for three asphalt speed bumps for $1898 to be paid from the Reserve Account (it is a one-time expenditure on a reserve item). Motion passes. 

        6.03   Painting – extended discussion re painting preparation (pressure washing, cleaning and painting chimneys, caulking, and cleaning the siding). If we hire our own workers and Dennis Sullivan supervises, Rutherford estimates $10,000 total and we know it will be done properly. If the painting contractors do the prep work, they may do the same quality job that Saleh Painting Company did and we will have to have it redone. Ray to find out what sort of discount the painting companies will give us if we do the painting preparation work.

7.0   NEW BUSINESS

       7.01 Neighborhood Watch  – Axt reports the street light near the entrance is not fixed and Phoebe Woolley had called the Pacific Grove Recreation Department about it.
