Christina White stepped down from both her board position and removed her nomination for the mail in voting. This created a vacancy for the current board and on the mail-in ballot.The board was gathering names and bios via the PPHOA website for consideration for the open position vacated by Christina White. As of the cutoff date of October 27, 2017 no applications were received.Secretary Darbyshire briefed on the fiscal burden a mail-in ballot would place on the current HOA funds. Given the strict timeline detailed in the by-laws and covenants pertaining to a mail in ballot, and the lack of applicants to fill the ballot to five nominees, more time is needed prior to proceeding with the ballot process.Treasurer Charles briefed on the HOA taxes for both the previous and current tax years. Incomplete information was provided for the previous 2 tax periods. At issue was a misfiled (by Liberty Tax Co.) $7,000 capital gain which should have been filed as a $9000 loss. Edward Jones will mail a 1099B to Liberty Tax Co. to resolve the issue via an amended return. There is currently a loss of $2,200 in retained earnings. No refund is anticipated and the only expenditure is a $75 filing fee.The HOA retained a new insurance policy with Auto-Owners Insurance Company. This change resulted in a 30 % annual savings over the previous policy through State Farm ($706 savings yearly). Due to penalties and fines imposed on State Farm the HOA received 2 separate refunds:$456.85 on August 21, 2017
$696.40 on August 29, 2017
These funds were deposited in the HOA account.
$12,500 was transferred from the HOA checking account to HOA savings. This transfer protects the funds from cyber-attack and allows the money to gain interest. Investment opportunities will be reevaluated at the next annual meeting.
Following open discussion and having no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned at 7:25 pm.
