Park/Landscaping Report (Prepared by Eldon Tarver, read by Chairman Latham)
Copy of report on request. President Estes reported the sprinkler pump burned out and is being replaced and the bill will be sent to the POA. Also a dead tree in the park fell and he called Mr. LeMaster to come and take it down. The POA will be billed.
Road Commissioner Report (Frank Preston)

- Table for further research and discussion.
- Director Delmastro moved and Director Dietert seconded to ratify the email vote that was unanimous not to put Mr. Hendricks lot clearing proposal on the agenda. Vote was unanimous.

COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS FROM RESIDENTS/GUESTS:
Michael Walsh and Denise Wolfs, owner of Lots 79, 80 and 81 came before the Board asking for a response to their request at the Board meeting on February 12, 2012 to replat their three lots into one. Their request was discussed out of sequence in order for them to not have to sit through the whole Board meeting before presenting their request. After discussion of the Board and their agreement understanding they would continue to pay assessments on each of the original three lots until such time as they were improved a motion was made by Director Malcolm and seconded by Director Rosch that the request to replat be approved according to the Deerhaven POA restrictions providing that after replat the unimproved lots will still be assessed as three lots. At such time as the lot/lots are improved they will then be re-assessed according to which lots have been improved, per the restrictions. The vote was unanimous.
Director Delmastro gave an update on the work on the website.
Date of next meeting is June 23, 2012 at the Blue Lake Clubhouse at 9:00 A.M.
Motion was made by Director Malcolm and seconded by Director Delmastro to adjourn. Vote was unanimous.
Respectfully submitted by
Pauline Tarver, Secretary
