Quick update post-annual meeting

Hello everyone,

Thank you all for showing up, whether virtually or in-person, to participate in the annual meeting. I think it is safe to say that it went well! Some quick updates:

Here is a link to the Zoom recording. Due to a license limit, this will only be available for 150 days. The password is wc2022!!

The next board is:

Bob Stanfield

John Baublit

Megan Cloustin

Anh Le

Colleen O'Toole

Stacey Page

Eric Walline

Liz Jones

Chris McDonald

Thank you all for voting! Note that specific positions (treasurer, president, vice president, secretary, ABR chair) are voted on at the first board meeting, which must be within ten days of today.

Moving forward, our top priority is to both ensure that the bylaws are being followed by all homeowners, and to guide Warner Creek in the direction that the homeowners (and NOT the board) wants. We will look into a survey - sent out to all households- that covers a range of issues that have been hotly debated over the last few years. If you have any suggestions for what to put on a survey, please send me a quick email!

Something I have learned in life is that it's not healthy to let issues build up over time without addressing them. I would encourage you to please talk to us if you do have any issues, rather than wait for the next annual meeting. Any issues or concerns can either be sent through Compass, or to Bob or myself directly at president@warnercreek.org and secretary@warnercreek.org. If you want to join a board meeting, please let me know - all board meetings are open to all residents.

Thanks everyone for a great evening.

South Park Bridge Committee 6/12/22

We had 7 persons attend a strategy session regarding the south park bridge. 3 board members were present (Chris, John, Bob) and 4 residents. We reviewed the site and the options and decided that option 4 was preferred.

It should be noted that two of the homeowners were opposed to building any sort of bridge in the South Park, however the rest generally supported a bridge. They recommended that we survey the community at the annual meeting.

South Park Bridge

Options

#1 Hire Contractor to install pedestrian bridge. Approximate cost $20,000

#2 Install Culvert. Backfill soil over the top. Approximate cost – Unknown

#3 Contractor does site prep, which includes removing vegetation, leveling the area and installing the foundations. Homeowners assemble the bridge. Cost less than $10,000

#4 Homeowners install entire bridge. This includes site prep with skid steer and tree removal, along with foundation installation. Approximate cost $5,000.

#5 Install temporary bridge using 5 gal buckets and concrete as foundations. Cost less than $300. See how much use it gets.

#6 Do nothing. Trails will end at creek. Cost = $0.00
