HIGHLAND LAKES CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATIONBOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING MINUTES - September 21, 2015

The monthly meeting of the Board of Directors of Highland Lakes Condominium Association was held on the third Monday of the month, in accordance with the By-Laws of the Association. President Kathy Baldwin called the September 21, 2015, meeting to order at 7:30 p.m.

Attendance

The following Directors were present: Kathy Baldwin, Michelle Todorov, Sandy Nolan, Tom Byrne, Guy Balok, Kathleen Connor, and Judy Nakdimen. Also present was Joe Poma, Property Manager. Approximately eight Co-Owners were also present.

Approval of Minutes:Board Action: Motion by Kathy Baldwin, support by Kathleen Connor, to approve and file the minutes of the August 17, 2015 executive session of the Board of Directors. All in favor. Motion passed.

Treasurer’s ReportTom Byrne reported.

Accounts receivable is down to $59,000. In September, a settlement was received of a little over $10,000 so the account will decrease to the $40,000’s. Cash is holding well.

The Association took a slight hit in investments resulting in a $20,000 loss. The Association has approximately $500,000 invested in bond securities. Overall, however, investments are up $91,000. The Board discussed whether to cash out or hold the Association’s investment, and voted to hold.

This time next year, the Association will have sold substantially all of the investments to fund the roof project.

Utilities are favorable to the budget. The Board decided to water less this summer to make up for the heating bill which was high due to the cold winter. The effort was successful.

The vehicle budget will most likely be over, but the overage is being offset by savings on property insurance and payroll taxes which were overbudgeted a bit.

The Association picked up another $11,000 and is favorable to budget $120,000. Usually the overage goes to the long-term reserve. Tom Byrne estimates that the Association will finish the year comfortably with a surplus in the operating budget of about $100,000.

In the closed session the Board considered a landscaping plan to prevent erosion at the new beach on Swan Harbor. The landscaping will require minimal

maintenance once it has been established. The Board approved the plan with a budget of no more than $500. The issue of watering the landscaping and the grass will be discussed further.

Clubhouse Committee Report page

Board Action: Motion by Kathleen Connor, support by Judy Nakdimen, to approve the Clubhouse Committee report of September 1, 2015. All in favor. Motion passed.

Court Liaison Committee Report page

Board Action: Sandy Nolan reported.

Board Action: Motion by Tom Byrne, support by Guy Balok, to approve the Court Liaison Committee report of September 10, 2015. All in favor. Motion passed.

Pool Committee Report page

Board Action: Board Action: Motion by Sandy Nolan, support by Kathleen Connor, to approve the Pool Committee report of September 8, 2015, and approve the recommendation to the board. All in favor. Motion passed.

Engineering Committee Report page

Board Action: Motion by Tom Byrne, support by Guy Balok, to approve the Engineering Committee Report of September 15, 2015, and approve recommendations #1 through #6. All in favor. Motion passed.

Management Report page

Kathy Baldwin reported that the Winter hours were discussed in the executive session. The Association will resume keeping the clubhouse open M-F 9:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m., Saturday 12:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., and Sunday 12:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. The cost will be about $3,500 a year, which will have no impact on the budget. Reducing the hours in the Winter would require eliminating a front desk employee. This plan

Page 8: October 2015 Herald

eliminates the need to search for a replacement next Spring. The Winter hours will begin October 1, 2015.

Joe Poma reported that he still is having problems finding a reliable security guard. He called two security companies, one of which was Guardian Security. He expects to receive two proposals: a one-year bid and a two-month bid. Two months would carry the Association through the next two months which may fulfill the Board-approved increase of the secuirty budget for this fical year, depending on the price quote.

Kathy Baldwin announced that on November 6, the veterans will be honored by the Bell Choir at the clubhouse. Some of the songs performed will be the Navy, Army, and Air Force themes. Please invite anyone you may know who is a veteran to attend and if they have hats to please wear them.

Management Report page

Board Action: Motion by Kathleen Connor, support by Judy Nakdimen, to approve the Property Management report of September 21, 2015. All in favor. Motion passed.

MANAGEMENT REPORTTO: Board of Directors, Co-OwnersFROM: Joe Poma, Property Manager

RE: Property Manager’s Report DATE: September 21, 2015

Winterizing units: With colder weather approaching, now is the time to start considering the winterization of your condominium. If you are planning to leave home for an extended period (more than 3 days), you should take precautions against water pipe bursts. Floods in a unit can happen due to the age of a pipe just as much as freezing weather. A flooded basement is bad enough, but if the pipe bursts on the second floor, the damage could be extensive. The most vulnerable pipe is the one that supplies the outside water spigot because it runs through an exterior wall and is the first to freeze. This pipe can be shut off from the inside of the unit and the gate valve is usually located along the basement ceiling in proximity to where the pipe exits the wall to the outside. The fact that the condominium is heated is irrelevant in this case since the pipe freezes within the exterior wall where the heat cannot reach. If you will be away for an extended time, it’s best to shut off the water supply to the unit in its entirety and even go so far as to apply a cup of RV antifreeze to the sink drains. Keeping the furnace set to at least 55 degrees is equally as important, but don’t rely on the furnace alone to prevent pipe bursts. If the batteries within the thermostat fail while you are away, or if there’s a power outage, the furnace will not operate. Although the actual flooding usually occurs at the point of thaw, it takes only a few hours for the water in the pipe to freeze, expand and split the pipe open. In our numerous reported cases of insurance claims, the condominiums that have had frozen pipes often have them in five different locations all over the home; drywall has to come down, water extraction, mold remediation, carpet replacement…very often $50,000 in damage. I say it every year at about this time, but after watching some residents go through it, I cannot stress the importance of prevention here. Make sure the thermostat batteries are fresh on a yearly basis (use good quality batteries such as Duracell or Energizer). Also check the smoke detectors.

Furnace filters: It is a good practice to replace your furnace filters every 90 days during normal operation, but replacing them at the start of the season if you did not replace them in spring, is a necessity. Furnace filters can cost anywhere from 50 cents to over $20, with the distinguishing factor being the level of particles that they remove from the air. Spending more on a furnace filter is always money well spent especially if you are prone to allergies or have pets. The furnace filter package itself will tell you what specific particles it will filter and down to how many microns it will work. The more expensive filters remove pet dander, pollen, mold spore, and other micro-allergens over and above the dust that the cheaper filters remove. Most of them, including the “Filtrete” filters sold at many store will have simple numerical designations; the higher the number, the better the filter.

Doorwalls: It took several years for the Association to realize how often we have rotted woodwork and sub-flooring under our doorwalls. What was initially thought to be a lack of caulk along the top exterior trim or a broken weather seal, actually turned out to be snow and rain collecting at the bottom of the doorwall along the track on the outside. The problem is very common in units that have decks and patios that are flush with the doorwall threshold. This is also one of the reasons why the Engineering Committee and Board are aggressively enforcing the height and clearance requirements of our decks and patios. One reason is the potential for water infiltration into the unit from the doorwall, another is the drainage of water away from the unit foundation and relative to the neighboring condominiums, and yet a third is access to repair the common element such as aluminum siding when the need arises in the future. If you have a deck or patio that is close in height to the entry point of your doorwall, be sure to shovel snow away from the foundation and doorwall throughout the winter. If the subfloor is rotted, it becomes spongy and the doorwall frame above it tends to buckle, causing the door to be difficult to slide and ultimately, it ruins the framing. Doorwalls are thousands of dollars to replace, and although the Association can replace rotted subfloors, you can imagine a resident having to remove hardwood flooring or tile above it to grant access for the repair.

MANAGEMENT REPORTTO: Board of Directors, Co-OwnersFROM: Joe Poma, Property Manager

RE: Property Manager’s Report DATE: September 21, 2015

Paddleboat Covers: For those of you that own a paddleboat, you have no doubt had to deal with scooping water out of

the foot-wells after it rains. Water that collects in the paddleboat promotes algae growth, causes discoloration on the

hull that cannot be cleaned off and in a worst case, the paddleboat sinks. Once a watercraft has sunken to the point of

reaching the top beltline or rub strip, it cannot be removed without use of machinery. I have watched residents clean

out their paddleboats once or twice a week after it rains. Some decided that they had enough and bought a cover.

Paddleboat covers cost between $24.99 and $50.00 and if it saves people from having to clean them every weekend, I’m

surprised that all boats on the property are not covered during periods of non-use. Of course, they work well with snow

too. You can buy them on Ebay and have them shipped directly to your door.

Outside water spigots: Sooner or later, the water spigot in your patio will start to drip because unlike ball valves, the

exterior spigots are stop valves. A ball valve has a single lever that you turn 90 degrees, which in turn, rotates a ball on

the inside of the pipe and closes off the water flow. When the lever is rotated again, the ball turns and a hole through

the ball permits water to flow through the pipe. The insides of these valves have no deteriorating parts with the

exception of the ball itself. A stop valve is the traditional valve and has the familiar faucet handle or knob that you turn

or crank until it is seated to shut the water off. It consists of the handle, a stem, a packing nut and a seal / washer. When

the handle is turned clockwise on a gate valve, the stem rotates downward and pushes a washer against the pipe opening

to block the water supply. Although there are several wearing parts within a stop valve, it is usually this little 10 cent

rubber / neoprene washer that causes a drip, when it wears enough so that it cannot be fully seated against the pipe

opening. That’s why with older stop valves, you have to crank them progressively tighter over time to get them to shut

off. In many cases, when the outside spigot starts to drip, people hire plumbers to fix them and end up spending over

$100 replacing the valve and a portion of the pipe in the wall; no complaints from the Association there since new is

always better than repaired, but sometimes there is a fix, especially if the valve is not otherwise corroded, rusted, broken

or just plain out-of-date. In these cases, you shut off the water supply to the outside spigot in the basement, take an

adjustable wrench and remove the valve assembly, and then remove a single screw holding the washer to the end of the

stem and replace it. The valve is then re-installed in the reverse of removal. When applying torque to the nut, make

sure to hold the spigot with a pair of channel locks to prevent the pipe from twisting in the wall and snapping. Most

hardware stores sell universal rubber washer kits that have a variety of difference sizes and they cost about $3. If you are

able to successfully shut the water supply off from the inside (test it first), then any failed repair will simply result in you

having to call a plumber like you may have done in the first place. There is also the possibility that you have a

frost-proof valve, in which case when you remove the retaining nut, the valve stem will extend into the wall 12-16

inches, but the mechanics and general principles are the same. Potential problems that may occur include a corroded

screw holding the washer in place that may break off, or perhaps a leaking packing nut seal (less common) that is the

cause of the leak. If the packing nut seal is leaking, the water will leak out from the handle instead of the faucet

opening.

MANAGEMENT REPORT

I’ve been told that a washer kit will include a replacement screw, but you can always improvise if necessary. Finally, I have taken apart countless stop valves only to find that they were too old and corroded to work on, so the above is offered only as a “possible” alternative to an expensive repair. If you are able to shut the water supply off and you have an adjustable wrench and screwdriver, it may be an option for a leaking exterior faucet.

Pest Control: Timing is everything when it comes to our pest control company. They visit the site every Wednesday between 9am and 1pm, although they sometimes arrive after that. As residents call throughout the week, their names, addresses and types of issues are placed on a spreadsheet that is given to the technician and all issues on the property are treated at once. If you have a more serious problem like bees and wasps, do not wait until Thursday morning to report it, because Eradico does not offer an emergency service and the resident often has to wait an additional 6 days to get it resolved. We have hornet spray at the maintenance shop, but if they are building nests within a wall or behind the siding, Eradico uses a special type of residual powder that has to be injected into the wall. The hornet spray only works on the area that it hits.

Watercraft Storage: With the colder weather upon us, don’t forget to remove your watercraft from the lake, clean it and store it in your patio or a suitable location on the boat racks.

Roofing Project & Fall Clean-Up: By the time you read this, the Association will have 18 more buildings out of the original 92 to re-roof before our project is concluded. A portion of those buildings will be done after October of next year, but before the end of the year itself. At that point, we have some catching up to do with asphalt and concrete throughout our community, despite the fact that we are attending to the more critical problems right now. Throughout the latter part of October and through November and December, our maintenance staff will be removing all of the leaves, twigs and debris from the property. All of the gutters and downspouts are typically cleaned out at the end of November, usually right before or after Thanksgiving, depending on when the leaves drop. If you notice that your gutters are not draining properly after that time, let us know and we will have the company come back out. Clogged gutters are the main cause for ice damming in the winter. Even though this reminder is more properly given when the snow comes, remember to remove dog leashes, cables, tools, newspapers, etc. that may be snagged by the machines that are passing by. If you have a cable that has not yet been buried by your service provider, please call them and schedule it, so that it doesn’t sit exposed all winter or get cut at a time when it cannot be easily repaired and buried.

Recycling: I have made numerous attempts to contact Waste Management about their recycling program and will be following up with other companies. This is an issue that received substantial resident support, but we still have to decide on an appropriate location for the dumpster. Details will follow in future reports.

Have a safe and happy Halloween and remember that the cider mills and pumpkin patches are open for business. Fall and wintertime events sponsored by your community committees will be listed in the Herald as well.

Connecting with the Diversity of our Neighbors

Another summer season has ended and hence the closing of the swimming pool and the terrace which is always a nice way to meet your neighbors in Highland Lakes. During our time in the swimming pool or on the terrace, many of us have had these great and stimulating conversations with people from all over the world.

Vitor Imbuzeiro – Brazilian country expert and Basketball coachI work as an intercultural consultant and last year I had to work with several Brazilian business men and their families coming to the USA. For the 2-day programs on “Living and Working in the USA”, I needed to find Portuguese speaking resource consultants to help with the programs. So at the pool closing party last year, I ran into a gentleman who wore a t-shirt that said Brazil on it and I asked him, “Are you from Brazil?” sure enough he was and so Vitor Imbuzeiro helped out in the programs talking about the Daily Life in the USA and also helped comparing the Brazilian vs. USA culture. The Brazilian families were glad that Vitor could talk to them in Portuguese and were happy with the services he provided. Not only has Vitor lived in Brazil, he also lived in Japan for 11 years where he met his wife and they have lived in Highland Lakes with their three children, two girls and a boy, since 2008. Vitor spends four weeks every summer coaching basketball camps in Italy as well as other camps in the USA like Oakland University, Syracuse University, etc. He offers his services in the Northville area for students from 2nd to 12th grade, you can contact him at [email protected]

An Hoang – Vietnamese/German - AlterationsDuring one of the Yoga sessions here at Highland Lakes, I met a young lady of Asian descent and I started talking to An Hoang only to find out she was Vietnamese and had lived in Germany for over 20 years and we were both happy that we could communicate in German. She also had her own sewing and alteration company in Germany and also did a little of that while living at Highland Lakes. I also became “grandma” to her daughter, Amanda and I spent a lot of time in the swimming pool this summer until the whole family returned to Germany because Amanda’s father’s international assignment ended earlier this summer and now my “grandchild” is gone but we hope to get together when I visit my mother in Germany at Christmas time.

Nataliya Kregel – Ukraine, Free Press CarrierWhen I met Nataliya in the swimming pool she told me that she was from Ukraine and I could relate to her because we had something in common since I had taught MBA students in Lviv, Ukraine for two summer in the 1990’s. Yuri, her husband is the Free Press carrier in Highland Lakes and Nataliya helps him deliver the papers sometimes. Since our papers come with a yellow protective cover, I asked her if she wanted to recycle them and reuse them and she said “yes”, so I collect mine as well as my neighbors’ Free Press plastic paper covers. I put them all in a bigger shopping plastic bag and hang it outside my door for him to pick up every 3 weeks or so. So we are doing our share of recycling and save a bit of money for the Kregels. If you also want to recycle the plastic covers, you may want to do the same. If you get hungry for a Subway sandwich, Nataliya just started working at the Meijer store. The Kregels and their son have lived in Highland Lakes since 2012. If you want to contact them their email address is [email protected]

Marianne Brandt tutoring a Korean high school girl in German

Also on one of the days in the swimming pool I started talking to a Korean lady, Jay Kim, when she found out that I am German, she asked if I could tutor her daughter in German. Her daughter has had two years of German in middle school and is now going to Northville H.S. so it was a pleasure for me to help Jinah Kim brush up on her German and get her ready for her high school German classes. Jinah was a very good student and her pronunciation in German is almost as good as a native speaker. Jay Kim and her family have lived in Highland Lakes since 2011.

The International Connection

We are very fortunate because we have such a diversity of people living in Highland Lakes. Of course most of the residents have grown up in the USA, but I have also talked to people from different parts of the world: Albania, Argentina, Brazil, China, Germany, Greece, India, Iraq, Korea, Lebanon, Macedonia, Slovakia, Vietnam and Ukraine and perhaps there are people from other countries that I haven’t met. This summer, we have had these great discussions in the swimming pool and learned so much from each other, especially from some of our residents who are from the Middle East. Perhaps we can get together periodically and learn about different cultures and share pictures from our travels. I have even thought about a name already how about “The International Connection”. What do you think?

If you are interested, send me an email at [email protected] or call me at 248 735 3931 and let me know the following:

1.Your name

2. Your contact information: email and Telephone No.

3. Foreign Born: What country are you from?

Connecting with the Talents of our Neighbors

During the many conversations mostly during the summer while enjoying the amenities of Highland Lakes, I have connected with several neighbors and they have helped me on several occasions. You may also be interested in the unique talents of our neighbors.

Michael Oden, Jewelry maker and repairerDuring one event at the swimming pool, I met Michael Oden who has been living in Highland Lakes since 1973. During our conversation I found out he makes jewelry, earrings, etc. and he also likes to repair jewelry. Since I have had several necklaces in need of repair, I asked Michael wheth-er he can fix them and he did. Michael did a great job adding a new clasp to one of the necklaces which looks prettier now than before and he restrung them so I can wear them again. So if any of your jewelry needs fixing you might consider giving Michael a call at 248-982-6864 or send him an email at [email protected].

Laurie Fundukian, Editor and WriterWhen I was working in China a few years ago, at one of the top high schools as a college counsel-or, my job was helping students with the application process which included writing Counselor Let-ters of Recommendation (LOR) for all the students who were applying to universities in the USA. Since I did not have enough staff who spoke English and knowing that Laurie Fundukian, who has lived in Highland Lakes since 2003, has worked as an editor, writer and college English instructor, I asked her if she could help write a draft copy of the LORs based on a questionnaire that I had developed and the students had to fill out. After getting to know the students and interviewing them I used these drafts as a basis for my final version of the LOR. Having had the draft written for the LOR saved a lot of time for me. If anybody needs help with writing or editing projects, Laurie may be able to help. You may contact her at [email protected] or 248-596-1284.

Valerie Gilbert - MasseuseAlso, while I was working in China to reduce my stress level, I would get massages and depending on my stress level sometimes more than once a week. So when I returned to the USA, I wanted to continue receiving massages and found Valerie who lives on Hayes Court. Valerie has given me very relaxing weekly massages. Valerie and her parents have lived in Highland Lakes since 2011 and her daughter recently got married and lives in Highland Lakes as well. If you are stressed and want to feel relaxed you might want to make an appointment with Valerie Gilbert and send her an email at [email protected]

Janice Booher – Yoga TeacherWe are very grateful to Janice Booher who contributes to the Highland Lakes community by offering Yoga classes in the Clubhouse, which many of us enjoy taking. Janet makes it fun and also explains the health benefits of Yoga to us such as improving our balance, strengthening our muscles, increas-ing our blood flow, helping us focus and many more. We have had up to 17 people participating in one of the classes. Janice, her husband and daughter have lived in Highland Lakes since 1995.

Don Warren – The GardenerIn September, I picked up a friend from California from the airport. Since we arrived early in the morning at my home on Swan Harbor Lake, the mist was rising from the lake, she relaxed on the patio and then all she wanted to do is walk barefoot in the grass since she has not seen green grass for a long time (California has experienced a draught for several years). I took her for a walk around our lakes and she took pictures of the several beautiful gardens some of our residents have planted and are taking care of. Needless to say she was very impressed by the beauty of Highland Lakes. Don Warren and his wife are one of the “pioneer” owners in Highland Lakes and Don contributes to the beauty of Highland Lakes.

Highland Lakes Condominium AssociationFIREPLACE AND CHIMNEY CLEANING POLICY

(Short-Form)

Issued and Passed by the Board of Directors: October 1, 2005

The National Fire Protection Association (N.F.P.A.) cites one major cause of home heating res as a lack of regular cleaning and resultant creosote and nesting material build-up in wood-burning devices, associated chimneys and connectors.

Highland Lakes Condominium Association, in the interest of reducing the likelihood of res resulting from improperly maintained replaces and chimneys, requires that all replaces and chimneys be inspected and cleaned by a quali ed, licensed and properly insured contractor on an annual basis. This policy, as approved and adopted by the Board of Directors, is mandatory for all units containing a replace.

Responsibilities:Highland Lakes has adopted a Fireplace and Chimney Cleaning and Inspection Policy. The Association shall be responsible for publishing co-owner noti cation in the Herald and making this program mandatory for all units containing a replace.

Owners are responsible for ensuring access to each replace and chimney in accordance with normal Association procedures, scheduling the annual inspection and cleaning, maintaining the replace and appurtenant hardware and responsibly using the replace as designed.

The contractor shall diligently perform all duties per N.F.P.A. and building codes. The inspection and cleaning report shall disclose in writing the name of the owner, street address, unit number, date of service, name of technician, ndings of the inspection, description of the service provided and con rm that the replace and appurtenant hardware and chimney are safe or unsafe for normal usage. A copy of this report shall be given to the owner and a signed true copy to Highland Lakes. Further, if the replace is found unsafe, the contractor shall red tag the unit and immediately notify the Property Manager or Maintenance Superintendent, and the owner of the unit.

The owner(s) of each condominium unit shall be responsible for the cost to inspect, clean, and maintain their unit’s replace, ue and chimney. Repairs to the replace, rebox, rebricks, ue, and chimney up to the point of the roo ine shall be the sole responsibility of the condominium owner. Repairs to the chimney roof enclosure, screen and/or vent pipe above the roo ine shall be the responsibility of the Association.

Notes:1) A full-copy of the Fireplace and Chimney Cleaning Policy is available free of charge, at the clubhouse, to

any co-owner or occupant.2) Fireplaces and wood burning appliances are used to a greater extent during the winter months or colder

weather. This is the time when res typically occur due to a failure to clean and inspect. HLCA is advising all residents of this issue. Your own inspection of your replace and the ability to see daylight as you look up the chimney is not a suf cient determining factor that the replace is t for use. Creosote, ash deposits, nesting material, etc. may be bound to the inside walls and look like the wall itself. A quali ed professional must do the work.

3) HLCA has business cards at the of ce for resident-recommended contractors that have done work here for years. The price for the work is somewhat nominal.

4) Any questions should be directed to the administrative staff.
