The board met this month on Monday the 9th. It has been a fairly quiet month – most of the activity pertained to gathering quotes from vendors for both our landscaping, north stairwell repair and janitorial services. The west building roof replacement has been scheduled for August.

Next month our annual homeowners meeting will be on Wednesday the 15th of August at 7:00PM in the exercise room. All residents and owners are encouraged to attend.

The board met as usual for the June 2007 HOA meeting. Of note our garage door for the Summit garage has been replaced and the new one is both stronger and lighter than the old version. We have scheduled our West Building roof replacement for July, and are collecting bids for a rebuild of the north stairwell.

The weather is getting warm and we would like to remind unit owners that we encourage the comfort of our residents via air conditioning units accepting that they meet certain restrictions to ensure the safety of our residents. Please read the minutes for details about air conditioners and our Rules and Regulations surrounding them.

The Homeowners Association board met this month on on Monday the 14th. The primary topic of discussion this month was repairs for the building. As most residents know, a visitor has damaged our garage door and we have Cressy door (our garage door contractor) working as quickly as possible to repair it. We will likely need to purchase a new door, but Cressy is hopeful that by the end of this week the door will be at least partially repaired. In the mean while we have significantly increased the number of security patrols to the building. Please be aware that until repairs are possible the Summit garage door will not be able to close and no valuables should be left in cars.

We are also in the process of receiving quotes to replace the roof on the West building. The roof is nearly due for replacement, and with the reoccurring leak in one unit a completely new roof is in order. The new roof falls under our standard operating budget.

On the topic of budgets the board has approved a 3% increase in homeowners dues for the 2008 fiscal year. This is 1% below the cost of inflation and will continue to provide for a healthy investment into our emergency reserves.

The Homeowners Association board met this month on on Monday the 9th. Of note this month is upcoming carpet and window cleaning services, and further updates on getting new plants for the building. We have also formed a technology committee out of 2 board members and two residents of the building. We will be investigating fast shared internet access service, keyless entry systems, and other technology related enhancements to the building – please contact the board if you are interested in participating or offering opinions and ideas.

Happy New Year! The homeowners board board held it’s first 2007 board meeting on January 8th. Due to vandalism the buzzer outside the front gate is being repaired. The board voted to remove the listing of names outside the front gate.

A reminder is included that door mats are not permitted in the east building – they damage our carpets. If you have one please move it inside your unit.

There is generally very little to discuss in December so the HOA board did not meet this month. The only items of note are that a new door is being installed in the garbage room, our elevator was vandalized and subsequently fixed, and that a unit on the 5th floor has developed a minor leak that we are having fixed.

Happy holidays to all residents of the Ambassador II Condominiums.

The November monthly board meeting featured further discussion about the watering system, and potential updates to the association bylaws to further clarify parking policy. The board would like to remind all residents to please park only in your assigned parking spot, and to center your car in your spot to make it easy for your neighbors to park as well.
