Clubhouse, Park, Lake and Dam Issues

He is offering a discount to Broadmoor residents for tree trimming to be done while he is in Broadmoor. Call Mr. Marshall to make arrangements for tree trimming/removal on your property.

3) Security doing excellent job: Have increased the number of patrols.
4) Cable needed at street to block service entrance: Liz reported that cars are being parked in the service entrance to the park and people are climbing over the fence to fish in the lake. She proposed to install two metal posts and cable to prevent cars being parked in that location. Cost approximately $250.
Liz will make arrangements for the cable and posts.
5) Landscape Committee: Phyllis reported she had walked the park this afternoon with Issac Carroccio a graduate of the UA Fayetteville Landscaping Program. He has had two years experience working at Garvan Gardens in Hot Springs, but has recently left to open his own business. Phyllis and Kenny Roberts showed him the various locations in the park and discussed the Board’s wish to develop an overall plan for the area. Issac said he would charge $45.00 per hour and would need 10-12 hours to prepare a preliminary draft to bring back to the board in June.
Liz made a motion to approve $600.00 for the preliminary draft. Seconded by Rhiannon. Approved by all present.
