Committee Reports
● No committee reports.

Old Business
● Storage unit breakins continue to be a problem. The Board suggests everyone not store valuables in their storage lockers.
● We urge all residents to use their range hoods to try and contain cooking odors, especially during the colder months when windows are closed. We realize that these fans do not vent outside, but they do help dissipate smells especially in those units with kitchens close to the front door.
● Investigation of a leak into a fifth floor unit is still underway. Once source has been located, repairs will be started.
● We are working with our new locksmith to check every common door and make any repairs or adjustments as needed. Progress update: The repairs and/or replacements will extend into April because of delays in receiving new parts.
● A homeowner submitted remodeling drawings to the Board for advice and approval last month. The drawings look good. The Board approves of the remodeling.

New Business
● A phone line formerly used for fire monitoring has finally been cancelled by CenturyLink. We even received a small refund. Fire monitoring is now being done by radio.
● Window and dryer vent cleaning will be scheduled for the end of April. We’ll send notices to all owners and post a few notices in the lobby as the date approaches.
● Our 2013 garage property taxes have been paid. Property Concepts had a difficult time working with King County to correct the billing address of the property.
● There is at least one open Board position. Anyone interested in being a Board member? Please contact The Association Manager, Jack Taylor, or a Board Member. We generally meet once a month and have discussions through email.
● Notification has been sent out to the owners of unit E213 regarding the damaged door that needs replacing. At this time, we have no date of replacement.

Meeting adjourned: 7:28pm.
Next Board meeting is scheduled for Monday, April 14, 2014 at 6:30pm in Unit E108.
