Capital Improvements
Peggy Stein
**new legislation in place
-new grates for 2 drains, a dive to measure the distance between the grate and the drain and let us know if they have to drill further down. USA Pools thinks there is no distance issue and it should only cost $1200 at the high end for the dive and grates. There are no federal inspectors, but IF we were inspected and fined it would be $5 million dollars.
Planning on doing it close to pool opening.—schedule for 2 weeks before pool opening: APPROVED by board
-fencing needs to be stained
-remove the white fence on Shallowford: lets pull up the fence since the trees are big enough.
**Board will notify homeowners that it is coming up**
-cracks in tennis courts are being filled by homeowners ASAP (3/16, 3/17), rendering good weather

ACC
