REPORT ON ANNUAL MEETING, 10-7-09


The Home Owners Association official Annual Meeting was held Oct. 7, 7:00 PM, in the Chester Library. Ninety-eight owners were present, either in person or by proxy, which is 78.4% of all owners, well over the minimum required for a quorum.

1) Jack Mayer, Secretary-Treasurer, read the minutes of the last Annual Meeting, which were then approved.


2) Mr. Mayer then presented the financial report and the budget for 2009 - 2010.


3) Neighborhood Watch: A new petition was circulated for signatures to request Police Dept. recognition of our Neighborhood Watch organization. The police asked for this to be done, since our original petition has been misfiled and cannot be found.


4) Architectural Review Committee: The Chairman, John McGrann, 454-0874, reported that most requests are reviewed and answered promptly, usually by email. He asked that anybody trying to find the pertinent By-Laws, call him for the references, and also that owners considering changes on their property contact him in advance. Ronnie Jones and Amy Pike Smith are also on the Committee.


5) Verizon FIOS: The President reported on the difficulties in getting Verizon and its subcontractors to restore all lawns to their original state (after their installation of the underground lines). He is continuing to monitor the situation. Verizon has requested a meeting with residents to present FIOS at a date yet to be determined.


6) Emerson Builders is asking the county for permission to erect an electronic sign on Rt. 10 at the entrance to CVG. They will make a presentation to home owners at an open meeting on Wed., Oct. 21, 7:00 PM, in the Arts Center office.


7) Traffic flow issues in both the business and the residential areas of CVG will be presented and discussed at an open meeting. Check this site for the time and place.


8) All the proposed changes to the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws were approved, by a vote of 90 - 8. As a result, our Board of Directors will now have five members, each elected for two years (in future elections), in staggered terms. The quorum required to hold Annual Meetings will now be 35%.


9) ELECTED TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS: Howard Corey (1 year), Jack Mayer (1 year), Andrew McCauley (2 years), Arlene Ripp (2 years), and Bob Tierney (1 year). The Board will elect its own officers at its next meeting, Nov. 4.
