General: Ted Ergo commented that a resident pointed out to him – correctly – that all dogs must be on leashes when in a common area.

He was walking his dogs without a leash at the time. He apologized to the meeting for not having his dogs on a leash. And that as President, he should

set an example of obeying the association rules. Note: Dogs must be on leashes when in all common areas.

Also please blow off all grass trimming on the road after mowing. Loose clippings are a safety hazard for bikes.

(And it is a state law.)
