Minutes of the Prior Meeting: 

Minutes of the prior meeting were reviewed.  Betty Long requested that the minutes reflect she arrived late for the May meeting.  Also, in the second sentence under Parks Committee, the phrase “Timber Park” should be amended to read “Timber Park playground”.

Board Motion:  Marg Hough moved to approve the minutes of the May meeting as amended, Terri Kolman seconded.  The motion was passed by unanimous voice vote.

Treasurer's Report

John Charicki reviewed the May Balance Sheet and Income and Expense Statement.  It was noted a CD would be coming due on 6/22; the consensus of the Board was to reinvest this CD for 12 months with Lisle Bank @5% (or better if available). 

Board Motion:  Betty Long motioned to accept the revised check register expenditures of $39,649.02 for June, Gerry Jackson seconded. Motion was passed by unanimous voice vote.

Management Report

Telephone log line items were reviewed.  Burnett Electric queried Management if GTIA had ever considered aluminum light poles.  Management will look into advantages, disadvantages and costs of aluminum poles.  

Resident of HF1024 requested replacement of a timber retaining wall that is on GTIA common area.  The consensus of the Board was to put expense on list for next year’s budget. 

Management noted that there have been a total of 32 College Green apartment-condo conversions, with 64 left to be converted.  

Management distributed photos of the GTIA bench as submitted for the Lisle Art Project.  The GTIA bench looks like a large daisy and is currently on display at the south side corner of Main Street and Burlington. 

Management stated that delinquent unit AWC825 has been sold, however the 2006 past due amount was not recognized by the court and there is an uncollectible balance remaining. 

Board Motion: Betty Long motioned to declare as uncollectible the amount of $223.49 for AWC825, Marg Hough seconded. Motion was passed by unanimous voice vote.

At management’s request, Greg Moore submitted a proposal to kill the grass, cut in a bed and install mulch around bushes in the maintenance problem area on South College Road. Total cost of each of the beds would be $265.  Since management has already treated he grass, $45 may be deducted from each bed area when completed.  The Board agreed this project should be accomplished as soon as possible. 

Management provided a list of May 2007 newcomers.  Board Directors are encouraged to call on newcomers in their respective areas.
