FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | MAY 2016 9 The Communication Zone is a vehicle for the Board of Directors to provide information about Four Seasons to the homeowners. The following are questions from homeowners who attend the Meet with Jean sessions and responses from Board members. The residents continue to be concerned about people speeding on Four Seasons Circle towards Breckenridge gate. More 30 mph signs on Four Seasons Circle are being considered. A 30 mph sign has been attached to the speed radar sign pole. Will talk with the builder to determine if speed signs can be placed after Plymouth Rock towards the Breckenridge gate. Rumble strips before the first roundabout will be installed soon as well as the pedestrian cross walk. Will send suggestions for more cross-walks to Safety and Facilities Committee. Attend the Safety and Facilities meeting the first Tuesday of the month at 9 am. Why isn't there a Letters to the Editor section in The Breeze? Currently, the Communications Committee does not accept or publish "Letters to the Editor," as noted in the published Purpose, Editorial Policy and Submission Guidelines for The Breeze. The committee did discuss this issue at their April 6 meeting and has decided to further review the subject. The board will be advised of the committee position, and possible recommendations at a later date. Attend the Communications meeting the first Wednesday of the month at 10 am. The residents would like the comments that come back from homeowners after a 30-day review to be discussed in the Board Meeting. They especially would like to hear the written comments. This has been done for the homeowner comments about the Summit and Rec Center 3 and were placed on a poster for all residents to view. This type of display can also be done for any other document that goes to the residents for a 30-day review. Where will the money come from when the renovations begin in the Lodge, i.e., the craft room, exercise room and Bistro? Will the reserves need to be increased to cover these renovations? Renovation costs come from operating income or excess funds, which are ample to cover the costs. Reserve funds can only be used to replace or restore existing furniture or equipment. Therefore, Reserve funds will be unaffected by these renovations. A resident states people are using the Summit showers for long periods of time, i.e., 30 minutes or more. They are not sure if the people are showering after swimming and use of the treadmill or there to just take a shower. Either use is OK. The HOA can hang a sign asking residents to be aware of the drought and not take extended showers.
