Jim Moore and Bill Everett, who live at 1896 Ardley and 1912 Ardley, spoke to the Board about possibly getting help from FPL because they are concerned about FPL’s big oak trees and their massive root systems. Jim Wells, Construction Project Manager for FPL, was present and he told the board that he is concerned that if FPL did anything to the trees there may be negative effects to neighbors in terms of buffers, and asked the Board what Juno Isles position is. Jim Wells stated that FPL is more than willing to trim and thin out the oak tress but again they are concerned about the effects to neighbors.

The next few minutes were spent on open general discussions among Board and homeowners concerning different roofing materials (tile roofs, metal roofs), and another discussion with a homeowner about houses on the Intracostal with fences going through the easement to the seawalls.

Other attendees at the meeting were Amy Harris with the County, Chris Calabaro with FPL, and Jim Lance from Seacoast Utilities.

Board discussed and reviewed drawings and discussed placement of lights.

Covenants – No Report

Crime Watch -

The Bike Parade is planned for July 4th around Ardley Circle. Postcards will be sent out and the Fire Department will be contacted. A motion was made to have a budget of $200 for snacks, ice cream, and little goodies for July 4th. The motion passed unanimously.

Landscape Committee - Glenn Levine

Board discussed dissatisfaction with the current person who is mowing the grass and the idea of getting someone new for the position.

Web Site

Board discussed how often the website is updated and that process improvements in terms of timeliness need to be made because the website is way behind. There was discussion about possibly hiring someone to do this as Pete has a lot on his plate serving as the President of the Board.

Old Business

Board read and discussed a draft letter that Pete Lashenka put together to send to all neighbors. The purpose of the drafted letter is to let the neighbors know that there is an architectural committee and to increase awareness to homeowners of the existence of bylaws. Wayne Hatten made a motion to mail this letter to every homeowner in Juno Isles and to send it out with the assessment letters. The motion was not voted on.

Chris Cox stated that several people have sent letters to Karen Marcus concerning the proposed development of the property previously owned by the Seminole Golf Course to the North of Juno Isles.

Wayne Hatten informed the Board of his conversation with a homeowner who refused receipt of a certified letter mailed to her from the Board. Wayne made a motion to get our attorney involved to resolve the issue. Tom Morris seconded the motion, and the motion passed unanimously.

Open issues around room: Dave Mastran stated that he spent a lot of time developing a questionnaire for the Board to review, and then at the last meeting the questionnaire was reduced to two pages and was subsequently struck from the newsletter. Dave questioned the Board to find out why it was not included in the newsletter.

Chris Cox stated that newsletter articles are due before next meeting in order to get a newsletter out by the end of summer in August.

A motion to adjourn was made and seconded. The motion passed unanimously. The meeting adjourned at 8:45 pm.

Respectfully submitted,

Bonnie McGuire
