     o A Board member met with the HOA's landscape maintenance contractor to identify common areas trees that have died due to the 2021 winter storm and 2022's extreme heat and drought.  5 trees were identified: park (1 Red Bud), Granite Spring island (1 Yaupon holly), and front entrance area (3 Red Bud). [Nov 17]

     o The Board approved the HOA's landscape maintenance contractor's proposal to remove and dispose of the 5 previously identified dead common area trees.  Trees will not be replaced, and a 7-gallon Buford holly or equivalent bush will be installed in the front entrance to help conceal the electrical power and low voltage lighting panels, and the irrigation controller, which will be more visible upon removal of the dead Red Bud at that location. [Nov 18, $1456]

     o In response to information provided by a homeowner, the HOA gate maintenance contractor was contacted to repair the front entrance pedestrian gate.  The gate was not responding to entered gate codes, resulting in the inability to use the gate to enter or exit the neighborhood on foot.
