Architecture – Ken reported that a resident on Ft. Pulaski wants to put up a storage building behind his house. The building is less than 200 sq. ft., so not permit is required. However, if there is electricity to the building, the electrical work would need a permit. Ken will check it out. Ken also reported that a resident on Antioch wants to put a storage building at the end of his driveway behind his fence. It’s a small building, so no permit required. The spacing from side and back of property are okay, so there are no objections. Ken also reported that a house on Manassas has a partially drained unmaintained pool that was reported to the city. Tom reminded residents that replacement fences require permits if they are longer than 25’. He will check out the ones that have been reported.
Beautification Report – The “YARD OF THE MONTH” in Shenandoah Estates for June is 16017 Chantilly. They will receive a $25 gift certificate from Cleggs Nursery. Congratulations! Residents are reminded that they can nominate yards for “Yard of the Month” on the website. Mike suggested that we get pictures of our YOM homeowners into the Advocate every month. Henry will get with Kevin about getting that in the paper.
Entrance Sign Committee Report – Sandy reported that the contractor has found enough of the stacked stone we need for the sign. Once that is delivered, he will proceed with that installation
and with shingling the roof. Tom and Sandy will continue to look for letters and paint colors for the background stucco. The sign company that we get the letters from will install the letters.
Newswatch/Website – Ed reported that the website is getting lots of hits. He posted on Next-Door/Shenandoah Group that the Newswatch was strictly online this month. It generated a lot of interest. Ed reported that the online version of the Newswatch got a lot of hits. He noted that over 400 of the 800 e-mail blasts that went out resulted in the recipient clicking on the link to look at the Newswatch. The June issue will also be a digital issue. It will include graduation pictures. Ed will send another e-blast asking people to identify themselves as graduates and send a picture to be published in the June issue. They can go on the website to do it, also. Ed asked the board members to send contact info for the area high school principals so he can send a press release to them about our graduation issue. Ed noted that he is hopeful that July will go back to being a paper issue.
Henry proposed that we spend the $746.49 that we saved on Newswatch postage in April and May to compensate Ed for the time he spent on those issues since he did not receive any advertising revenue as he usually does. Mike amended the proposal to state that the Executive Committee will have authority of the Board
