WAIALAE IKI RIDGE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
Board of Directors’ Meeting
Waialae Country Club
January 18, 2011

Board members present:
Carmen Hagloch , President; Donna Ashley; Helen MacNeil; Harvey Kodama; David Andrew; John Michalski; Sylvia Makk; Sandi Kingery ; Marilyn Haine; Mel Yap; Fay Jones.

Board members absent or excused: Lisa Iwata; Joann Allin; Judy Fadrowsky; Nathan Sparks.

    Call to Order:
    President Carmen Hagloch called the meeting to order at 4:35pm. It was moved, seconded and voted to approve the minutes of the September 2010 and November 2010 meetings.

    A slate of Officers for 2011 was proposed. It was moved, seconded and voted to accept as presented.

    Nominating Committee:
    David Andrew Introduced and welcomed new Board member Harvey Kodama as well as prospective Board members Karlyn Pearl and James Penoff. Helen MacNeil was proposed as Treasurer - moved, seconded and voted unanimously to accept.

    Treasurer’s Report:
    Helen MacNeil presented and reviewed the 2010 Annual Financial Statement. She then presented the 2011 Budget which will be a balanced budget provided as many residents pay WIRCA dues this year as did last year (500). A question and answer period followed. Carmen commended Helen on the excellence of her presentations.

    Committee Reports:

  • Newsletter - It's time to start writing articles for the next Newsletter. The deadline is Feb. 28.
  • Security – Big improvement since Harvey Kodama set up a computer program to monitor Star Protection performance. The program tracks the scans to ensure that WIRCA is actually getting the hours of service paid for.

    A raise from $12 to $16 per hour for guard Ricky Mills was discussed then moved, seconded and voted to approve. About 500 hours over the course of the year will need to be cut to offset the increase in Ricky's compensation. Carmen will follow up and discuss the situation with Star Protection. A new Chair for Security to relieve Carmen is urgently needed.

  • Membership - So far, Donna Ashley has collected dues for 2011 from 366 homes. Her goal is to collect from 500 homes. A second dues invoice will go out 1/28/11.
  • Information Dissemination – Helen MacNeil reported that many requests had come from people doing renovations. Realtors had also made a number of inquiries regarding covenants and restrictions.
  • Website - Carmen has sent the webmaster an update on current Board members. She will get meeting minutes and possibly the Newsletter posted on the website.
  • Bylaws and Parliamentary Procedure - Carmen is not sure we need this committee any more. Will try making it ad hoc.
  • Public Affairs and Liaison to Neighborhood Board – Mel Yap agreed to be Chair.

  • Parks - No report from Nate Sparks. Some residents have expressed concern about the height of trees in the park blocking views. The parks belong to the City and County and WIRCA has no authority to trim the trees.
  • Zone Captains – Still have about 11 vacancies. Will try recruiting via an article in the next Newsletter.
  • Social / Annual Dinner– Need to make a reservation for the Annual Dinner and Membership Meeting in November 2011. Discussed venues, majority vote was for returning to the Waialae Country Club. Sandi Kingery will follow up with the Club to make arrangements. A potluck cocktail party is planned in April for members of the Board, Zone Captains and their significant others.
  • Decals - Thirteen decals have been sent out so far this year.
  • Traffic Calming - Scott Dezzani donated signs which Sylvia Makk and her helpers wave in an effort to encourage motorists on Laukahi Street to slow down to the legal limit of 25mph. The Honolulu Police Department is also helping by monitoring traffic with lasers guns and issuing speeding tickets.

  • Old Business:

    Regarding a "Waialae Iki" sign at the bottom of the hill, a proposal for $37,000 was received from a possible vendor. The Board voted not to proceed with this project.

    New Business:

    No new business.

    Carmen Hagloch adjourned the meeting at 6:00pm after being motioned and seconded.

Sincerely,

Lisa Iwata
Secretary,
WIRCA Board
