Report of Officers:

President's Report: Ashley suggested that homeowners might go to the following website to get the St. Tammany Parish Newsletter: htto:/Arvww.stogov.oro/newsletter.php; click on newsletter and follow the directions. Ashley also reminded everyone that we have a Public Board of Directors Meeting oi-r November 2,2010, at St. John Church Parish Hall. Ashley also mentioned that someone had painted graffiti on the pavement of Timberlcend Dr. near Erin Drive. lt is assumed that this was done by children of one or more homeowners, and the Board respectfully asks all homeowners to inquire of their children about this and instruct them, where neessary, not to paint graffiti on the streets or anywhere else. Treasurer's Report Our savings account balance as of October 14 is $158,637.71; our checking account balance is $54.274.92.. Ninety eight and nine tenths percent of homeowners have paid their dues in full. or are on a payment plan. Complete Treasureis Report is attached. Motion to approve the Treasure/s Report made by Ben Aiken and seconded by Terry Lopez. Approved unanimously

Budget: ln order to establish the Budget for 2011, the Board first had to set the dues amount for 201 1. According to the Covenants, as modified in 2007, dues can be increased for cost of living adjustments by 3% per year. Had that been done in 2009, 2010, and again this year, the dues for 2011 would be set at $393.38 per year. However, for each of the past two years, the Board has chosen not to raise dues, and again for2011, the Board did not increase dues, even though we could use the increased income forthe paving program to be done in 2011. Accordingly, the Board voted to set the annual assessment for 2011 at $360 per lot, which means that it did not increase. Assuming that all homeowners pay the full amount of their dues, the income to the Association for 2011 will be $127,260.

I totion to approve

keeping the annual dues assessment at $360 for the year 2011 was made by

Ben Aiken and seconded by Guy Dussouy. Approved unanimously.
