There was discussion regarding a home that appears to be subleasing to multiple parties.  The Board will discuss further how to approach this issue.

New Business –
Brandy & Paul looked into websites – various options were discussed.

Brandy brought up the possibility of a new big toy/swings in the park.  She is willing to talk to the company that moved the current toy and see what they suggest it would cost to replace it.

The meeting adjourned at 8:50 pm.
