promptly at 7:00 p.m. Doug provided information on housekeeping. Proof of Notice was

accomplished within 12 months. These included maintaining and improving our front
entrance, continuing to build our capital reserve for maintenance and replacement of
our infrastructure, encourage and promote homeowner improvements to their properties
and continue our extraordinary sense of community.

Committee. Leslie Hanlon was also recognized for her outstanding work as Chairman of
the Social Committee.

Discussion was opened to the floor in reference to New Business, 2016 Proposed
Budget and the Election of New Directors.

Most discussion focused on two budget line items; the hiring of a property management
company, Terra Management, to professionally handle most of the day-to-day activities
currently occupying the board’s time, and the continuation of the 2013 resolution to
enhance, modernize and improve Sweetwater’s front entry.

Most residents who attended the meeting were in favor of hiring the Property
Management Company. The concern was the preliminary cost estimates for the entry
project may lead to improper use of reserve funds and future dues increases. It was
pointed out that the current stage of the project is design plans. The next stage will be
construction plans that can be released for bid. Only after bid responses will we know
how much the project will actually cost, and how we can phase the project to fit our
revenue stream.

It was pointed out that in past years Sweetwater voted to roll excess funds into next
year’s operating budget to avoid paying taxes to IRS. Our attorney stated the vote was
not critical, but we could bring a motion to that end.

*A motion was made, seconded and carried to roll over this year’s excess funds
to next year’s operating budget.

*A motion was made to vote to adopt the budget as it has been presented via the
proxies. After discussion, the motion was seconded to move forward with the
vote (via Proxies) on the budget as it has been presented. The motion carried.

*A motion was made to vote on the Candidates, it was seconded, voted and
passed.

Members present voted the budget and candidates on their proxies. All proxies were
turned in and the Teller Committee convened to conduct the count.

The Tally Report was announced to all attendees by the Secretary. (The Teller’s
Committee Report is below).

It was moved and seconded that the meeting be adjourned. The meeting was then
adjourned by President Doug Rothschild.
