Shumway Special Owner’s Meeting

February 23, 2009 at 6:15 pm

Northlake Unitarian Church

4^th Ave South and Lake Street

You should be receiving a special Owner’s meeting packet in the mail if you haven’t already.

This meeting is necessary to adopt the Bylaws amendment allowing expansion of the Board from three to five members. This requires the majority of the total ownership. It is important that you attend or return your proxy.

Secondly, we will be holding an election for Board members

We will meet in the chapel east of the church on State and4th Ave South. The chapel and a large parking lot are on the east side of the main church; take the first left driveway as you drive east on 4th Ave South.

Landscape: We have an appeals hearing scheduled for Feb 19; we will be represented by an attorney.

Water Leaks: We had two major water leaks in late December involving six Units in Buildings D and F. Both will require filing a claim with our master policy. Both occurred in Units where the Owners were not present for an extended period of time.

Please remember to shut off your Unit water and open the utility sink faucets during extended absences.

Plumbing Inspection: AA Plumbing performed an inspection of the plumbing drain piping recently. One sink/laundry drain in B Bldg had sediment buildup which appeared to be due to very low usage or water flow. and just needs some water flow to scour it out.

The conclusion was that a general jetting (cleaning) of the system was unnecessary, and that most of the backup caused in the past was likely caused by low usage and long periods of Owner absence. Allowing paper to dry in the pipes creates temporary dams which can cause a backup until they saturate with water and finally move through the system.
