FROM THE PRESIDENT…

SIDING PROJECT

I (Josh) am contacting Cynthia Miller of McGill on a daily basis until this project is finished. Lombardo has been impossible to contact and they are not holding to the schedule they submitted for repairs to the 454-448 Meadow Hill Building. I have instructed Cynthia to find a new contractor and get these repairs completed by September 30th. McGill is contacting our Lawyer to see what course of action is best for dealing with Lombardo’s’ lack of action. If there is no response from them within 24 hrs of our next contact (Monday or Tuesday), we will be seeking a new contractor. This is deplorable and unbelievable that Homeowners are still dealing with this fiasco. This board considers it unacceptable and it is ALL of our top priority to see it repaired by September 30th! We realize the severity of the situation and are doing EVERYTHING in our power to solve the problem. I would not dare ask you to be patient, because we know you already have been. Just know that we are working hard for you.



LIENS

The liens on the Meadow Hill properties have been lifted. The Releases are posted on the CSH McGill Management website at http://www.mcgillmanagement.com/. The board will be working with McGill Management to contact credit reporting agencies on behalf of resident who received a negative rating due to these liens. There will also be a letter sent to homeowners for your records.



These are terribly unfortunate situations that this new board is attacking head on and at full speed. There has been a learning curve for us newbie’s but we are learning fast. We will make these items right.



FUTURE

In other news there are a number of great projects we are working on for next year. These are all in addition to continuing our yearly painting, caulking and pavement sealing programs. We are looking to purchase a sign for the entrance of our subdivision. This would be viewable from the intersection of Countryside and Meadow Hill and would provide updates on the association meetings and events. We are also trying to obtain a grant from the Lake County Storm Water Management Commission to match us in our effort to repair and improve the detention pond area. We hope to make it drain better and look nicer. We are still paying off the loan from Lombardo for the siding project and that may slow or stall our efforts on these other items. However, we are working hard to achieve our goals and keep our assessment even. This may not be possible but it is our goal. New mailboxes will be going up next week for those of you with old boxes. You should have received a letter on how to get your new key (keys will be at the post office). If you did not get this letter please contact management.



CONTRACTS

Our contract is up at the end of this year with Landscape Concepts Landscaping and McGill Management. We are currently seeking bids for a new landscaping company. The board is also meeting with multiple Management companies over the next month in order to make an educated decision on who to retain as our management company moving forward. We hope that you will bare with us during this process and know that we are working toward a full overhaul of management operations even if we retain McGill Management.



Thank You,

JOSHUA GRUBBS

PRESIDENT
