• 9/25/15-Treasurer Dave Coyle presented a proposed 3 year budget plan to the board. The proposed budget included suggested increases in pool fees over the next 3 years in order to build up reserve funds. A decision was made to increase pool dues for 2016 to $144 per household, a 20% increase. Further discussion of the budget to potentially increase yearly pool dues for future years has been tabled for a later date.
• 10/28/15-The board determined to further table the decision regarding potential increases to the yearly pool dues. However, a statement explaining the decision behind the increase will be added to the invoice sent to the home owner
• 10/28/15-The board discussed the possibility of posting annual documents, normally included with the invoice, on the RGHA website. After consulting with the board's lawyer it was determined that "posting on the Association's website would not fulfill the delivery requirement", and all documents will need to be included when mailing invoices to home owners.

• The board prepared and assembled envelopes with invoices to be mailed to all home owners in RGHA.
• Anne updated the board on messages left on RGHA voicemail. All questions had been answered and resolved.

The meeting was adjourned at 7:55PM.

Next meeting will be held Wednesday December 9 at 7:00PM at Ricardo's.

Respectfully submitted
Lone Svoma
RGHA Secretary
