Considering the gravity of the Community Association’s financial situation, other New Business topics were briefly discussed:
1.New Retail Construction
- Positive homeowner reaction to new retail architecture
- Proposed new medical facility construction (South of Frenchman

with existing, competing businesses. (This relates to a “compete
clause” involving medical businesses on that particular site.)
2.Appearance of unsold lots
- New City of Hugo ordinance permits weed/grass growth no longer
than 10”

the new ordinance, and cut the growth on it’s unsold lots.
3.Review of dog leash rules & pick-up policy

Monday, Sept. 17 @ 7pm at City Hall.
- Separately, VG homeowners requested clarification and
reinforcement of Association Rules. Board decided to table the
discussion and wait for outcome of City of Hugo’s ordinance process.
4.Holiday lighting & some future social events
- Board advocated neighborhood partnering with new businesses and
retail landlords for potential sponsorship of some “social events” and
holiday lighting.
5.Review snow removal contracts
- Association should review contracts with cost savings in mind. Past
problems with were also discussed. It is likely that the snow removal
amenity may be reduced or cut back this year due to budget
constraints. More information will be announced when it becomes
available.
6.Tennis court maintenance

anchoring posts.
7.Pool, irrigation and fountain winterizing
- Pool is now closed

October.
8.Clarification of status of homeowner representatives.
- The official status of neighborhood representatives, Charles Kirk (Townhomes) and Mark Vlker (Single Family Village) to the Board of Directors has been settled. It was agreed by the Board’s Directors, Charles and Mark that the neighborhood representatives be considered as volunteers/informal Liaisons to the Board - not voting members of the Board. This clears up confusion that recently arose about the voting status of the neighborhood representatives. All agreed with the resolution to this issue.
