MINUTES OF THE CROSSINGS’ BOARD MEETING
APRIL 7, 2002

The meeting was held at Ray Speicher’s and began at 7:05 p.m.  Board members present were Jack Curran, Pat Francis, Cathy Lesjack, Rhonda Monikowski, Pat Mullen, Dan O’Connor and Ray Speicher.  Homeowners present included Jim Albert, Keith Baker, Kevin Costello, Sue Fey, Randy Levis and Vince Plocido.

Ray reported that Hollibaugh’s cleaned up approximately six trees that were down in the Phase III park due to a recent windstorm.  One of the trees was leaning on the pavilion and safety was a concern.  Cost to the association was $1350. Dan expressed concern about trees dying in the common ground behind his property.  Pat F. will check it out.

Dan announced the nominees for the upcoming election, including Jim Albert, Keith Baker, Jack Curran, Sue Fey, Pat Francis, Randy Levis, Rick Mason, Terry Mohr, Rhonda Monikowski, John Rozborski, and Ray Speicher. Dan asked the nominees to prepare a paragraph about themselves along with their reasons for running for election, to be turned in by April 12.  These will be included with the ballots, which will be mailed on April 13 and due back to the election committee (Dan, Kevin Logan and Kemp Konick) by April 26.   Dan anticipates 40 homeowners participating in the voting process.

Kevin Costello asked about using the Phase I common ground for softball practice for his daughter’s team.  Cathy explained that the board had voted against using the field for organized or league sports as it increased our liability, created a parking problem and defeated the purpose of the field as a recreational area for the homeowner’s. Dan added that CTAA prohibits their teams from practicing on unauthorized fields, as the coach would be held personally liable in the event of an accident. Kevin thanked the board for their time.

Pat M. distributed the treasurer’s report. Rhonda reported that the directory is on its way to the printer and it will include the website address. Sue Fey asked about plans to rectify the muddy condition of the path entering Phase I park alongside her house.  Pat F. will look into it. Ray initiated discussion on renovating and/or updating the playground equipment in the Phase I park.  The board agreed that they would be willing to listen to options brought before them by concerned homeowners.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:20 p.m. The next meeting will be the annual meeting to be held on Monday, April 29, 2002 at 7:30 p.m. at the Phase I pavilion.
