A discussion regarding the maintenance personnel use was discussed. Consideration to either changing the lock and not giving a key to the maintenance personnel. Racca suggested that since all members of the HOA must have a RFID chip to enter the gates, the maintenance personnel should also be required to have a vehicle chip to enter the premises.
Parris recommended talking to Jeff regarding his staff acquiring window stickers for their vehicles to gain access prior to moving forward with changing the gate lock. Baler volunteered to email Jeff Christianson, CEO of Sierra Golf.
Speed Bumps: Grant provided a Google Satellite map indicating the proposed locations for either speed bumps, speed humps and other speed control devices. Cost along with pros and cons of various devices was provided by Grant and discussed. Payment and placement among other issues to be discussed at subsequent Executive Board Meeting.
