Preliminary design includes brick instead of wood fence. Columns every 10 ft. then brick base with wrought iron (or other metal) between the brick columns. Up-light the monument and the Birch trees.<\/li>\n<li>Possibility of using green marble in the background of the signage with raised or indented letters. Canned lights will be in the ground.<\/li>\n<li>Discussion to put the signage on the west side of the street as you enter Huntington Highlands, you see that side of the street first.<\/li>\n<li>Discussed whether 10 ft, sequence for the pillars is too expensive \u2013 discussion about shortening the length of the fence and\/or spacing the pillars farther apart.<\/li>\n<li>Action: Gayle will send pictures of green marble with differing color lettering. David will put on the website. She will also contact us with revisions to the preliminary plan as per input from the attendees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Social Activities Report<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">\n<ul>\n<li>Events have fallen off from sponsorship and attendance. Halloween Parade &amp; BBQ, Holiday, summer picnics (Cottage lake), father\u2019s day golf tournament, ladies gift exchange, Easter egg hunt, Bunco, Gourmet Club, Garage sale. It was suggested that we have a block party after the Garage Sale.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Security Issues<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">\n<ul>\n<li>Discussion of security of our homes and break-ins. King County has had a budget shortfall. Now there is only one sheriff on duty and no detectives for checking into break in reports. Alarms going off don\u2019t warrant sending anyone either.<\/li>\n<li>Woodinville city will respond because they have an agreement to solve but only if there is an actual issue.<\/li>\n<li>It would be prudent to heighten the awareness. It is more important now than ever. Watch your neighbors\u2019 property.<\/li>\n<li>Action: add to future notification regarding need to know your neighbors&#8217; and watch for break-ins.<\/li>\n<li>We should consider adding no solicitor\u2019s signs for each home.<\/li>\n<li>If you have an alarm, should go to a private company that calls you that your alarm has gone off so you know you need to check on your house.<\/li>\n<li>Suggested wireless video. Fake cameras and signs indicating under video surveillance was recommended.<\/li>\n<li>Action: \u00a0Matt volunteered to look into.<\/li>\n<li>Action: Matt to look into signage indicating video surveillance.<\/li>\n<li>Survey<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">It was suggested we do a survey to see if residents would sign up for yard maintenance, painting, blowing sprinkler \/ check, certified backflow and upcoming projects if we could negotiate a group price for the service.<\/div>\n<h3>Budget Report<\/h3>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Susan reviewed the Budget. Other than landscaping maintenance costs for the entry and a few other miscellaneous items, the budget is earmarked for the renovation of the entryway.<\/div>\n<h3>CC&amp;R Revisions<\/h3>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">\n<ul>\n<li>Greg Olsby raised the issue of strengthening our CC&amp;Rs.
