James McClain reported that the landscaping on the south entrance is in process.
There is a concern about the health of some of the trees at the entrance. James will
contact the Chestnut Estates Association and talk with them about the lack of upkeep on
the grass etc at the south entrance. James will also call the city and ask them to
improve the landscaping around several pump stations. There was a concern expressed
about the delay in making available reclaimed water in our area. We continue to seek
ways to make the area around the power lines on Seneca Blvd. look better. We will
continue to look at the possibility of placing a fountain with a light in the pond
at the north entrance.
In the area of deed restrictions there has been a complaint about the property
at 1742 Seneca. A letter will be written to the homeowner. There is a interest in
our Board to add to our by-laws and deed restrictions to have the committee approve
the color of homes being painted. We will take this up at the next meeting.
The following were elected to one year terms:
Gary Bennett, President
Jim Coleman, Vice-President
Kurt Miericke, Secretary
Ginny Hornberger, Treasurer

Kurt Miericke reported on the situation with 417. We are in a deadlock with the
DOT. it was moved, seconded, and carried to approve the landscaping that they are
willing to provide. This will be done in May or June. When 417 is joined with
I-4, we will inquire to have our own sound study made.
Nancy Klein will work to develop a newsletter to be out by April 15th. Each board
member is urged to assist Nancy with content. There was a discussion to try and
get some of the costs of the Newsletter underwritten by local businesses. The
primary issue in the first newsletter will deal with membership. We will make a
strong effort to get at least 250 members this year. Signs at each entrance
will report on the number of members. The newsletter as well as the web-site
will give information concerning paying the $50 membership dues.
Jim Coleman will work on a date for the Fall Fest.
The next meeting will be Monday, April 22, 7:30 PM at a location to be announced.
