5. ‍Financial Report

• Bylaw revisions
  If there is conflict between the bylaw and the restrictive covenant then the RC will prevail - in other words certain bylaws cannot be changed.
  Definition of perimeter fence is fence along Riverbend Road and along Rabbit Hill road but the Board is maintaining the face of the fence along the walkways even though not part of the perimeter fence just because we couldn’t rely on the homeowners to do so.
  Look into legal opinion on file re: perimeter fence
  Bill to speak to Evelynn about the perimeter fence comment then Keray to change proposed clause 4.02(d) in accordance.
  Interest in RC is stipulated at 16%, Keray to change back proposed clause 4.02(n) from 20%.
  Request for owners who don’t repair their fences to be fined - issue with what constitutes ‘repair’ Board decides it is too subjective to assess. However, RC already says the fence is for the homeowner to ‘maintain’ so there is room for the Board to say that based on a reasonable assessment the fence needs to be maintained.
  If we maintain the walkway fences, although we don’t have an obligation to maintain it, we would have to negotiate with the homeowner if we want to repair it and request they pay their half.

  Need at least 21 days of proposed revisions to the community
