Neighborhood Watch Alert!

This happened in Lochsa Falls

Friends and Neighbors:: This morning at about 7:15 a man in a silver truck tried to abduct my neighbor's 12 year old son on his way to the bus stop!!! He tried to get him in his truck a couple of times, Andrew told him no and then ran to his bus stop where the other kids were. They filed a police report, but Andrew didn't get many details since it was dark and he was caught off guard. This was near the main park around the horse loop. The man pulled up alongside Andrew, and asked him if he wanted to check out his new truck, Andrew responded no and kept walking. The man then said, come on in and I'll give you a ride to where your going. Andrew again said no, then the man got mad and started yelling for him to get in. Andrew ran the rest of the way to the bus stop and told his teachers when he got to school. Please pass this along to all your Lochsa Falls neighbors and remind your children never to talk to strangers.

Minutes from Board Meeting

3/8/11

Saguaro Canyon HOA Board Meeting Minutes

Roll call – Attending Joe, Brad, Eric, Scott, Doug, Robyn, Mary and Lauren Moison

Mary went over ACC landscaping guidelines for our subdivision. There is a 13 page document that has which plants and sized are acceptable to plant. Mary takes care of all new builds and Scott takes care of existing homes.  If Scott can’t answer a question or a homeowner wants to deviate he will refer the question onto Mary. We may want to put together a ‘do not plant’ list to add to the guidelines. We may also want to ask the City of Meridian for ‘approved trees’ list.

Mary is auditing standards and addressing violations. Scott is going to start enforcing violations in stained fences, porch lights, and making sure chimney stacks are black. Also talked about possibly placing liens on BHH lots to insure ACC standards and compliance.

President – Brad (1 year remaining)

Eric suggested we move some of the money from the money market account to open another 25k CD. Also move all but 100k from checking into money market account.

Landscaping – Joe

Need to spray for weeds within the next 30 days. Burnt out lights are being replaced. Suggested to add about 5 more lights. Joe is going to get a bid.

Scott asked if minutes for future meetings be sent via email instead of hardcopy.

No future amenities will be built this year due to the discount of the HOA dues this year. We may consider next year.

Meeting  adjoured.

3 Way Stop

One of our Homeowners called Ada County Highway District to find out why they put the 3 way stop at the intersection of Saguaro Hills & Segundo. They have been placed due to the construction work in widening the intersection of Locust Grove & McMillan. Once that project is finish, which is suppose to be this fall, the stop signs will be removed.

Everyone is invited. If you have any issues you'd like brought up please let Joe at Snake River know so that he can put it on the agenda. Thank you!
