Architectural: Bob Hunton reported on issues involving the following properties: 1178 Excelso; 1070 Excelso; 155 Napa; 1113 Excelso; and 871 Regalo.  All involved incorrect paint colors. The owner of 1178 has agreed to repaint an area which violates the CC&R's.  The owners of 1070 Excelso have been contacted, but have not yet responded; it was reported they will be here shortly and will be spoken to at that time.  The owner of 1131 Excelso has been advised of the discrepancy in color and has elected to take no action as of this time; further board action will be needed.  The owner of 155 Napa will be contacted, as the tenant has refused to take any action despite repeated requests. The owner of 871 Regalo has agreed to paint their garage door.

Capital Projects: The 5 year capital projects budget constitute the report.

Common Areas: Stoney Brown reported the landscape crews will be cutting back the Mexican Bird of Paradise plants and Oleanders, as well as raking the “tree straw” which has fallen.  Application of pre-emergent weed control will begin in the next while, to make it effective for next year. Thanks were extended to the 17 volunteers who worked in the common areas on December 8.

Hospitality: Sam Barnard reported Hamburger Nites have been scheduled for January and February, and other events are in the planning stages.
